Traffic laws

Traffic laws in Portland and the state of Oregon are complicated, just as they are everywhere else. If you have a driver's license, you should know them... but you probably don't.
== Notable laws ==
* Effective January 2010: Law prohibits all drivers from using a mobile communication device while operating a motor vehicle. 
* Motorists must yield to bicyclists; motorists and bicyclists must yield to pedestrians; motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians must yield to marauding babies (?).
==Motorcycles==
Motorcyclists are required to be endorsed, wear a DOT-approved helmet, and have insurance.
==Bicycles==

Transportation

Portland has a diverse set of transportation options. 
Most well known as a bike city, Portland also offers great public transportation via buses, vans, streetcars, light rail, and an Aerial Tram. Downtown blocks are only 200 ft long creating pleasant walking conditions. The grid street pattern eases navigation within the city for all transportation options.
Portland has a history of transportation innovations:
* PDX ran the first electric interurban line. Opening in February 1893, it went to Oregon City and back
* Oregon instituted the country's first gasoline tax in 1919, to fund highways
* Nearby Columbia Gorge saw the nation's first designated scenic highway
* PDX was first major city to remove an existing freeway (Harbor Freeway, 1972) 
* PDX was first major city to decline a new interstate (Mount Hood Highway, 1973)
* First to re-institute modern streetcar service after World War II, 2001
* Portland built the first public charging station for electric vehicles on the continent, August 2010
* PDX ranks number 1 in the nation for urban transit as of 2011
* Oregon may become the first state to institute a per-mileage highway tax, as opposed to a per-gallon gasoline tax, to account for electric vehicles
Despite Portland's many transportation options, the region's transportation infrastructure--like virtually every metropolitan region in the United States--lags far behind the transportation options available throughout Europe and Asia.Forget the space race; the new arms race is over high-speed trains. China plans to build a high-speed rail network that connects Beijing to Vietnam, India, Europe and Russia.

TriMet apps

TriMet apps tap into TriMet's free online databases to build programs for iPhone, Android, web and other platforms to make it easier to ride Portland's transit system. Their most common uses are for trip planning (similar to TriMet's own online trip planner), arrival times (similar to TriMet's own transit tracker) and mapping (similar to TriMet's own system map). These third-party apps typically add functions, such as mobile location-finding and graphical interfaces, that TriMet's own programs lack.
The apps are possible thanks to the agency's innovative effort to release its arrival data on the Web.
== Trip planning ==
These are generally the most full-featured apps, telling you when the next bus or train is coming and figuring out how to get from one place to another in the TriMet system.

UCarShare

UCarShare is a car-sharing service owned by U-Haul that competes with Zipcar by operating a handful of vehicles in the Portland area.
Because UCarShare charges a low hourly rate plus a per-mile charge, it can be cheaper than Zipcar for people who live near its vehicles and tend to make trips of a few miles or less.
== Availability and rates ==
In August 2010, UCarShare operated 10 cars in the Portland metro area, with three in the PSU area, one near Lewis & Clark College, one at Linfield College in McMinnville and several at other spots around Portland. All rented for $4.95 per hour plus 49 to 59 cents per mile.
For longer trips, UCarShare caps its fees at a fixed maximum hourly rate. As of August 2010, the maximum hourly rates for Portland cars were $9.25 or $9.50, slightly cheaper than or identical to the equivalent Zipcar hourly rate.
At the time, UCarShare also charged $25 per year, half of Zipcar's $50 annual rate.

University of Portland

University of Portland is a private Catholic university in the University Park neighborhood.
The school was founded in 1901 on a bluff (called Waud's Bluff) with a commanding view of the Willamette River and the industrial thing that has become Swan Island. Enrollment is about 3500 students. Architecturally the highlight of the campus is probably the chapel designed in the early 1980s by Pietro Belluschi.

Upshur Street

As printed originally in the Oregonian, November 2, 1921 "Portland Street Names – November 2, 1921 – Upshur", origin of Upshur Street's name. 
With the exception of Roosevelt street, the name of Upshur is the only one in the list running in alphabetical order from Ankeny to York street which does not appear in some form or other in the early annals of Portland history. U street was renamed Upshur in honor of either Rear-Admiral John Henry Upshur or his son, Custis Parke Upshur, the latter a resident of Astoria for 51 years.
Custis Parke Upshur was, for many years, connected with river navigation and is remembered now as the purser on the steamboat Bonita, which plied between Astoria and Portland. In this capacity he became acquainted with many Portlanders, and a close friend of several who might have a been influential in choosing his name for U street, either in his honor or his father’s. He married one of the Trenchard daughters, an early and notable Astoria family, making was was termed a very blue-blooded combination.
Rear-Admiral John Henry Upshur was born in Virginia in 1823 and graudated from the naval academy in 1848. He served in many capacities in the navy, according to Who’s Who in American, 1916-1917. When promoted to rear-admiral he was ordered to command the Pacific naval forces. He retired in May, 1885, from the navy and died in 1917 at the age of 94 years.

Vancouver

Vancouver, Washington, is Portland's largest suburb by population. It's the seat of Clark County and the fourth-largest city in Washington.
Vancouver was among the first European settlements in the Portland area. It grew up around Fort Vancouver, a military installation named for a British explorer, Capt. George Vancouver.
Today, about a third of Vancouver's labor force works in Oregon. The communities are linked by auto bridges on Interstate 5 and Interstate 205. This is an unusually small number of bridges for two U.S. communities of such size; for example, in the similarly-sized Cincinnati metropolitan area, six auto bridges connect Cincinnati with its Kentucky suburbs, Newport and Covington.
Since at least the mid-20th century, most urban growth in the Vancouver area has occurred outside its city limits, in unincorporated parts of Clark County that have Vancouver addresses. Since the 1990s, the city has sought to expand into more of the surrounding urban area, annexing Cascade Park and part of Orchards, near I-205. More annexations are anticipated in Orchards, Minnehaha and eventually Hazel Dell, Salmon Creek and Felida.
Vancouver's rapid urban growth is sometimes seen as an unintended consequence of Oregon's relatively tight restrictions on development. State Rep. Joe King of Vancouver, the former speaker of the Washington House of Representatives, responded to rapid development in Vancouver and elsewhere by modeling Washington's Growth Management Act of 1990 after Oregon's growth management laws.

Vaughn Street

As printed originally in the Oregonian, October 29, 1921 "Portland Street Names – October 29, 1921 – Vaughn", origin of Vaughn Street's name. 
The sixth man to serve the city in the capacity of mayor was George Washington Vaughn, for whom V street was renamed when the old alphabetical order of lettered streets was done away win in 1891.
For 27 years he was acrive in the civic and industrial affairs of the city. A native of New Jersey, born in Blairstown in 1809, he came to Portland from Canada in 1850 and established a hardware store on Front street. He was mayor or Portland from April 5, 1855 to April 7, 1856, and he also bore the distinction of having been the judge at the first county court ever held in Multnomah county. This began in January 17, 1855.
His commercial activities held the greater part of his interest, however, and were varied. In partnership with Alexander Ankeny, he operated the boats Independence and Wasco on the river. His hardware store seems to have been his principal pursuit, and he conducted this business until it was destroyed by fire on December 22, 1872.
In 1865 he built the first steam flour mill ever run in Portland. This was on the corner of Front and Madison streets, and was destroyed by fire on August 2, 1873. His lossed by fire were estimated at $120,000, but they did not leave him insolvent, and he was in good shape financially when he died on March 4, 1877.
The house in which he lived stilled stands on the southeast corner of Fifth and Columbia streets.
