I got one 3 years ago while driving a rental car while mine was in the shop. I have a radar detector, so I never get tix, but it wasn't in the rental. I got my tic on 97, just before the left-hand entry to the mall for going 13 over.

I got a ticket for going 50mph on the parkway. I was following the flow of traffic. The judge dismissed it.

They need to write more of them on our road wrecks all the time people do not follow the limit. I am not for tickets but some places people drive too fast.

NO but almost everyone drives fast over here. Not usually a problem.

You have to drive like you are crazy to get one of those anywhere, but in Bend they don't exist.

No I haven't since I generally stay at or slightly over most posted speed limits. On the parkway staying in the right lane moving over for those trying to enter from some of the side streets. This is not a freeway people. I left that long ago. It only takes a minute longer to get the 6+ miles

Because in town I never exceed the posted speed limit by more than 10%

No ticket because I drive the designated speed or with the flow of traffic.

The "flow of traffic" can still get you a ticket. Happens all the time.

Does the wilderness permit system make you more or less likely to visit?

How is this a Yes or No question? Does Yes mean more likely, and No less likely? Or does Yes simply mean, yes it affects me somehow?

Your question really needs to address wilderness camping as that activity impacts greatly the wilderness landscape. Day, permits, visits are far less destructive to the Three Sisters Wilderness and easier to obtain.

Your already paying for high gas prices to get there

"Your" already paying? Did you think the price of gas included admission to wherever "you're" going? How about Disneyland? "Your" already paying for the gas to go there so it should be free, right? Maybe if you fly they should pay you?

Just one more thing you have to pay for

It is enforced to preserve the overall wilderness experience to benefit all who recreate and obtain a wild connection to Nature.

Dude, try to hike the Wonderland Trail at MRNP. It is a lottery for dates - good luck.

The bums are camping in or near the canal by Brookswood. COID is good about expelling them quickly but the trash blows all over the place. People used to walk this trail all the time. Now I see the vagrants smoking crack/meth. My neighborhood that borders this is full of families.
