An increase in crashes along a stretch of Highway 140 is leading to a heftier law enforcement presence - and the cops want you to know they'll be there. The Oregon Department of transportation says the so-called Highway 140 Lake of the Woods Safety Corridor has a significantly higher rate of crashes than other similar Oregon highways. A Safety Corridor can be declared only when a stretch of road has at minimum of 110 percent of the crashes on similar highways. The state police say they'll be beefing up their patrols in that area of 140 and will be strictly enforcing traffic laws.
