I got stuck once while in Bend, but I try to avoid going to Bend whenever possible.

They send the trains through during the most inconvenient times. Between 645 and 8am, 11am and 1pm, and 430pm to 6pm. Busiest times of day for Reed Market.

I get stuck 2x a week with more housing on Reed/ 15th and 27th, it'll be worse! Build an overpass!

The more the population grows the more of a problem it will be

Kele Sammons

This crossing is a problem, often backing up traffic to 15th street roundabout, and will become a bigger problem with all of the new homes being built along Reed Market.

Gabe West

I agree

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.

Rick Allen

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

Michael Miller

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

Jeff Sorrick

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

Dianne Price

I've never gotten a ticket for anything, any where!! Started driving in 1959!!

Dieter Heinzer

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

den b

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

Jane CommunityMember

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

Gabe West

I don't drive

Not yet. But it will later this year since they are predicting $10 a gallon. Let’s Go Brandon, and FJB

Fuel costs are driving everything up. With EU no longer buying fuel from Russia and wheat from Russia and Ukraine, we will soon see a worldwide food crisis. It will also be felt here, by everyone, rich and poor. Crime will soar. This is all on Soros, Obama, and Biden. It won't be pretty.

In eighteen months Joe and his team, has taken us from an energy exporting nation to third world status. Being laughed at by 194 countries is not my idea of fun, but Joe did it to us.
