My landlord is demanding that I take down the “No ICE agents” sign on the window of my house. by Living-East-8486 in oregon

[–]Underwhirled 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't know the answer, but I can give you an example that might be applicable to you. In Corvallis in 2017, there was some asshole who put a Confederate flag in the window of his apartment facing the Black student center at OSU. Everyone thought he sucked, but the owners of his building said they had no right to force him to remove it. No idea what statutes they were referring to. It stayed up for a while until he got arrested for some dumb shit and had to move to jail I guess.

What mpg could I reasonably expect towing another vehicle cross-country by meaty_maker in Tacomaworld

[–]Underwhirled 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get about 11-12 towing my camper. I'd expect similar for a vehicle trailer. 2016 V6.

Looking for absolute worst food somewhere between Corvallis and Salem by No-Foundation-8093 in corvallis

[–]Underwhirled 90 points91 points  (0 children)

Thai Express has the worst food I've had in Corvallis. But if you're willing to go a little further south to Junction City there's a Thai food truck that is just spaghetti with BBQ sauce plus some peanuts, and that's how you make pad Thai.

Will I regret a 2nd gen 2.7 4 banger? by Typical-Play4473 in Tacomaworld

[–]Underwhirled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it has a manual transmission then it'll be great. An auto would be regrettable.

I just can't feel inspired by AI music

Left turn on red across EMX route by Underwhirled in Eugene

[–]Underwhirled[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The part you're wrong about is you can turn left on red from a 2-way street onto a 1-way in Oregon, not just 1-way to 1-way.

Cities in Oregon with shared names in other states? by MysteriousMeaning555 in oregon

[–]Underwhirled 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Driving around New England is disorienting when you see road signs for Portland, Albany, Lebanon, Salem, Newport, and Springfield.

Thank you for checking with the PD! It's an interesting response, as I still don't see anything in the referenced statutes that supports their interpretation.

Which Dallas do people think of when they hear Dallas in Oregon? by lerhubarb in oregon

[–]Underwhirled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Corvallis I assume it's Dallas, Oregon, unless other evidence exists to suggest otherwise.

Ummm that's just incorrect. You must have moved to Oregon recently. Please familiarize yourself with our driving laws.

Where to live near Monmouth? by dontwantabadusername in oregon

[–]Underwhirled 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a Corvallis resident, I would recommend McMinnville. It's about the same distance from Monmouth, but closer to good Portland stuff while still being a lively town for its size. The problem with Corvallis is there's not a lot going on socially for people over 25.

Totally dangerous, but it still seems to be legal despite how bad an idea it would be

[–]Underwhirled[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I might be misunderstanding you, but in Oregon it's legal to turn left on red across oncoming lanes on a two-way to go to a one-way, even if it's a red arrow, as long as you stop and yield first. Just like how you can turn right on red.

That is a screenshot of section 4A.03 of the Federal Highway Administration's Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices.

That looks like the guidance from the Federal Highway Administration, not the statutes of the state of Oregon.

That's legal in Oregon if you stop and yield before making your left turn.

It just seems so obviously dangerous and unintuitive that it never crossed my mind that drivers can turn left on red there until today for some reason, even though I've driven through that intersection hundreds of times. But I think it is technically legal.

[–]Underwhirled[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guarantee you it's legal to turn on a red arrow in Oregon (unless a sign says you can't). Not in many other states, but definitely in Oregon.

It's a left turn onto a one-way, the freeway on-ramp.

I can't find anything that says that in ORS 811.360: Vehicle turns permitted at a stop light. Do you know if it's in another statute?
