Saturday heading down to pick the stock exhaust from Corey (thanks again buddy) got tagged for following to close. Load of BS. Traffic slowed as he pulled on the highway and cars stacked up. He pulled across 4 lanes to tag me. Think I'm gonna fight this one.

Sunday backyard drive cut short by big fire in Orinda. CHP had road blocked off. I tried telling him I need to get to my house but he looked at the car, smirked and snorted finding that amusing and told me to turn it around.

Bastages. all of them.

next thing you know they will be getting us for no front plate, or too loud of exhaust. but why bother with ppl on cell phones, changing lanes with no signal or not having their kidz buckeled up. whatever.

so they ticket people for following too close, but they don't enforce the "move your slow ass over to the slow lane" law. wtf

and as always remember, the law is above the law. They can sit on your ass as close and as long as they want.

I had this dumb grin on my face as i reviewed the citation thinking of all things i should be ticketed for...i get this. guess i should count it a blessing.

same here, got a ticket for an 'illegal leftturn' the other day. grrrrr, 1 point, but I guess it's better being caught doing many times the speed limit on some back road :)
