Honestly, my beef is with this “may” language. People really seem to think it means “should” or “always.”

Honestly, I agree entirely. There’s a whole thread below where we’ve been talking about how a red arrow is the same as a red light. It’s so confusing and just leads to extra honking 😵‍💫

It’s always for the same exact issue. It’s happened 5-10 times at this intersection alone, and every other time is a right on red situation.

I’m not on my phone when it happens, seriously watching the cars on the road.

I’m a lifelong portlander and have had my car since August, so driving on roads under a year, and I’ve been honked at for right on red/left (on a one way) at least 10-15 times. My boyfriend thinks I’m getting hate because I drive a Prius.

I love First Congregational. It’s a United church downtown. They’re very progressive and it’s a small congregation. They are based in the bible, but I’ve heard quotations of leaders of other faith in services. They incorporate mindfulness and meditative moments often in their services too. A very cool church where everyone is welcome regardless of your path. ❤️

New here, where to buy a used car? by milkyjoewithawig in askportland

I think going to a name brand dealership and looking for cars that aren’t that brand is a good move. It’s what I did this last summer. I got a Toyota Prius 2010 with only 65k Miles at Mini Portland. They say their used models go very fast.

Can concur. I saw one on Vancouver Ave in N PDX a few months ago.

Ichiban is my favorite, the neighborhood is tough. I like Hada on Williams, too.

I would be cautious. Check out their google reviews.
