Boccieri could not be reached for comment, but in a news release on his legislative website he said existing law is not specific enough about when a posted speed limit takes effect, which he believes could lead to legal battles. “I’m learning there is a lot of confusion after asking motorists and police officers, which sometimes give different answers,” Boccieri said in the news release. “It’s just common sense — the speed limit should begin at the sign.” He said he proposed the law after talking to a constit- uent about a speed camera installed outside Youngstown last year. Earlier this year Dayton officials said the city would reinstate red light and speed cameras in five locations after the Ohio Supreme Court struck down restrictions imposed by the state legislature.

As we drove past dramatic gin- gerbread stacks of sandstone to pick up our rented mountain bikes,I was nervous for the ride ahead, despite my husband’s assurance that he had chosen an easy route. He’s a regular visitor to Moab, an area known for some of the world’s greatest mountain biking. Before this trip, I’d ridden a total of 2 miles on singletrack trails.

WASHINGTON It’s an players dominates agenda NEWS ANALYSIS awfully busy week for President Trump, and an awfully distracted one. His hopes of repealing Obama- care hang in the balance. He’s seeking momentum for a major tax overhaul. He’s staked political capital on a primary race in Ala- bama. He’s locked in a nuclear- tinged war of words with North Korea ... and his team is trying to help hurricane-hit Puerto Rico cope with a lack of electricity. So what’s Trump talking about at the start of this critical week? The National Football League and player protests. “The issue of kneeling has nothing to do with race,” Trump tweeted Monday, the fourth straight day he has weighed in on the subject. “It is about respect for our Country, Flag and National Anthem. NFL must respect this!” In some ways, the president’s “Trump will attacks on football players who kneel during the national anthem always change to protest racism — and football otal time for an administration Ho said his country regards the subject if President Trump has spent players’ attacks on Trump for facing low approval ratings, divi- Trump’s comments as a declara- four days tweeting about threatening free speech — are sions among Republicans, and tion of war. there’s sports protests by NFL overwhelming his message on global tension over North Korea.
