As a professional CDL driver… I want more of them. Fucking tired of people going 50+ on 35mph roads, 80+ in a 65. Racing around me and cutting me off when I’m already going 5 over posted. I used to agree but after years of driving for a living? Nah fuck em they deserve the ticket, anything within 5 of posted won’t land you a ticket and even if a cop tried it would be dropped without any resistance if you just challenged it. If you can’t handle going within 5 of posted then you shouldn’t be behind the wheel.

Cars doing 35/40 in a 20 with people trying to cross the road… this is not okay. Pedestrian fatalities are up, and this is part of the issue.

Welcome to the lemmy.world community for Portland, Oregon!

This community has kind of been empty since it was created, I’m hoping to change that!

Unlike “other” Portland communities you may have seen “elsewhere”, I believe in a “warts and all” approach. You are free to take off your Rose tinted glasses and talk about topics that are dragging our city down.

At the same time, sunset pics, snowmageddon, traffic monster, cones, that’s all welcome as well. Let’s collectively keep Portland weird!

2024 is going to be an interesting year politically with all the changes to city government, I will attempt to tag political threads with a [Politics] tag and encourage users to do so as well.

Other than the lemmy.world restrictions on spam, copyrighted material, and adult material (USE that NSFW tag!), there’s only one real way to get in trouble here:

  1. Don’t attack other users.

It’s OK to go after Teargas Ted, it’s OK to say Rene Gonzales is a fascist, ACAB, BLM, whatever floats your boat (WEFYB).

It’s NOT OK to attack or diminish another user. Feel free to disagree, you can point out the many ways you think they’re wrong, just don’t start throwing perjoratives AT OTHER USERS.
