don't try this at home.
i *completely* spaced out. going from 505 onto 5. it's central valley boredom, completely empty freeway in the middle of flat nothingness. i didn't pay attention to my speed and was doing what i thought was just casual cruising. i see the cop sitting on the other side of the freeway on an offramp and i look down on my tach, 4200 rpm, oh shit, that's gotta be too fast. 15 minutes later he catched up to me and pulls me over. had me clocked at 96 (!) ... i got lucky, the cop turned out to be a car nut. he aksed if i was going up to the raceway. so we talked cars for some 15 minutes or so. he wrote me up for 80, which is the minimum he could do (short of letting me go free) ... so here's to the cop on I5, whatever your name is, i owe you a cold one!

Best to keep CHPs on friendly terms!
(IMG:http://www.coastaldriving.org/BWphotos_files/Img_bw48.jpg) This is a pic from Buttonwillow Raceway where the CHPs couldn't resist coming to see Chris Murray's 'CHP' inspired race boxster. Great public relations for PCA! The Highway Patrol are cool, and actually spoke at a PCA Thunderhill event and stressed SAFE driving to and from the track and mentioned a 'high speed chase' of a Porsche up I-5 that was totally unacceptable (wasn't an event participant but still gave us a bad rep). TIP from the presentation.... They don't nab you for a little over the limit but don't push it above 10 over, they have to stop you for that.... |
