Governor signs bill on ‘Idaho Stop’

Written August 10th, 2019 by Hasso Hering

It took a while for the legislative database to catch up, but today it showed that the governor signed a law change affecting bicyclists at stop signs in Albany and elsewhere in Oregon. The change takes effect this coming Jan. 1.

The Idaho stop: Oregon may allow it here

Written April 11th, 2019 by Hasso Hering
