Okay, so we're still in the "southwest side", so what streets are you referring to, so we don't get caught too?
I'd guess McAndrews or Ross, but haven't noticed anything so far.
So, what are you supposed to do -- stop before turning, or go around the white lines or ???
'Guess you were the 'lucky' one, but 'glad you might be able to work it off.
We'd pay you for the 'tip' with veggies, but it sounds like your mom is giving you everything you'd ever want or need.

D, it was 238 headed East at Ross Lane. I think you'll see it if you go there.

So wait, turning onto 238 from Ross Lane is illegal? Or is it just the way you did it? Like, was the ticket because you turned right or because you went over the white lines? Because that's crazy. And I can't believe they just gave you a ticket for something like that, with no warning or anything.

New lane change and no warning. That's what gets me. They just wanted money.
It is illegal to turn the way I did, which is to drive over the newly painted white lines. You have to stay behind that car in front of you, you cannot turn from their right side.

That is bogus! That's a clear example of the city trying to make up for some budget deficit or something. And to think that they're targeting good people! Just to clarify, I'm not saying that you're among the good people. But still...

I'm sorry about the ticket. At least they didn't warn you by putting you in jail.
Brent, I think it was 238 and SAGE Rd. I make that turn almost every day. Yesterday on my way home I saw the cops with 2 people pulled over (including a van from the radio station on that corner). I didn't realize they were pulling over for making that turn. I didn't even know what the white lines meant when they first put them there...Steve had to tell me. And since I'm a rule follower, I don't ever pass cars on the right there anymore...however, I've had my right blinker on waiting patiently in line, and had cars try to pass me on the right. I don't know why they don't just put a turn lane in there...they have plenty of room.
Cheryl, why do I think you guys would leave me to stew for a while :)
Rachel, Don't get tickets!
Kristen, your right, it is Sage. When we lived there, they didn't have the lines, so it was legal, but now that they have the lines it isn't. I agree that they should have a turn lane, there is more than enough room.

Dude that stinks. We were visiting NYC couple years ago and obviously you can't turn right on red lights either. I got socked with a $285 ticket.. for a moving violation. It would have been cheaper if they would have pulled me over for speeding.
Actually, I don't think it's ever legal to pass on the right like that to make a turn if there is not turn lane. It's the same over by Taco Bell on Crater Lake HWY and Poplar. A lot of people use the shoulder to turn right onto Poplar from CLH, but I don't think it's legal. Is it??
Adam, that stinks. There should be some discretion for out of state visitors. Like u-turns. I moved to Oregon from Cali. In Cali a u-turn is always legal unless it says no u-turn. In Oregon it is always illegal unless it says u-turn ok. Talk about confusing!
Kristen, it's legal if there is no line or the line follows the angle of the curb. Since they moved the line out straight it is illegal. The cop did take time to hold a turning class while I sat there. Nice.

Okay, I would feel bad if this didn't remind me of the time I got a ticket b/c you and I were playing an innocent game of "tag" on 99 in front of church. Two weeks before I got married. The cop said I was riding your bumper, right after you cut me off after I zoomed up next to you to wave hi after you zoomed up next to me to wave hi. Yeah. And never speeding once I might add. Remember that? I cried hysterically when the cop told me I could be responsible for killing my own sister if I kept up that kind of bad driving.
So B, you could be responsible for killing my sister if you keep making previously allowable right hand turns at newly painted illegal areas. :lol:
Ok, we took that route to church this morning and we can't figure out where you got stung... Now I re-read the comments and you mean you turned right from Sage onto 238! It's the intersection where the "pre-owned vehicles" ;) are? Hmm... thanks for the heads up! :)
dude! this sucks! (am I allowed to say that?) have they ever heard of festivals and other pleasant things to raise money...that is entrapment! man I hate that!
Uhhhh - are there ANY traffic control indicators (stop signs, red lights, etc) on that intersection?? it looks unbelievably dangerous to me?
How many lanes are there on Sage? two? three?? (two one-way and one the other?) or do you all just make a lane when and as you see fit? :-) And to top it all off you have pedestrian walk-ways across all four entrances?
Has anyone counted the number of crashes and near-death experiences at that one intersection in a year?
i get the foul taste left in your mouth from the way you 'found out' about the road change - i'm assuming you did not see the county's clear public display of the impending road amendment regulation printed on the inside of the economy sized box of Cheerio's available on sale between February the 6th and February 8th last year in all 7/11 stores huh? ;-)

I remember that day. By the way, I've had fun hanging a bit with your sister this last week. Tam and I went out to Pony for lunch Friday.
She's cute with her hair cut. I love it!

It is that intersection, but it is if you turned right on sage instead of left (when you came to church).
