    Oregon will be the first state in the U.S. to experience the total solar eclipse on August 21, 2017. Given the expected increase of traffic and tourism, the Oregon State Police would like to remind you that the eclipse is no excuse to break the law. For example, unless there is a genuine emergency or another exemption applies, you have no right to stop your car in traffic to get a better view. (See ORS 811.550 and ORS 811.560).

    Dont Break the Law Just Because Theres a Solar Eclipse

    Oregon will be the first state in the U.S. to experience the total solar eclipse on August 21, 2017.
    Given the expected increase of traffic and tourism, the Oregon State Police would like to remind
    you that the eclipse is no excuse to break the law. For example, unless there is a genuine
    emergency or another exemption applies, you have no right to stop your car in traffic to get a
    better view. (See ORS 811.550 and ORS 811.560).

    Thankfully, the eclipse is not expected to last nearly as long as Portlands 2016-17
    snowpocalypse, so there should be relatively few cars stuck on the road and waiting for ODOT
    tow trucks. If youre driving and the sky goes dark, you should remember to turn on your
    headlights for however long the eclipse lasts. In Oregon, the total eclipse is expected to last
    about 2 minutes at approximately 10:15 AM on August 21. In many states to the east the eclipse
    will last for approximately 30 seconds longer, but will arrive later in the day. More eclipse
    details here and here.

    Police in other states are preparing to keep law and order on the day of the eclipse as well.
    However, nobody really knows how things will go. In Idaho, Lieutenant Paul Manning of the
    Pocatello Police Department put it like this: "It would be nice if this turned out to be like Y2K
    from years ago where you make tons and tons of preparation and then everything goes smoothly.
    . . . But if you don't prepare, it could come back to haunt you."
