Been driving for almost 2 days. Here we come across the Naveda/California border line and down the hill on i-80 going towards Sacramento. So the roads were kind of curvy, you know. It was at night as well and traffic was minimum. I kept her at 80-90mph around the turns. I see the speed limit sign, "MAXIMUM SPEED 65," but I just kept on going at my pace of 80-90. Around a bend and I see some flashing lights behind me. Humm....that IS a cop car. I go over the a hill top and his lights dissapears. Then over the hill top he comes and Lee tells me to slow down. I do and he stops behind us. "You've exceeded the maximum speed limit, may I see your driver's license?" Of course I gave him it and he did his 'thang.' Then after a couple of minutes he comes back. "Here's your citation. You've exceedd the speed limit. The speed limit on i-80 here in California is 65, have a nice night." ......**sigh**...... $171.75 for it... It's marked down that I did 82mph on a 65mph. I'll be back in town the 30th ....May the lecture begin! LOL
Lolz, with that kind of driving you always do, you could have wasted him, I guess you never listened to my song right? Have fun
So you were invincible until now... I'm proud of you! It's too bad you won't be in Nevada/California to go fight it.
Its too bad you didn't make an effort to get away, I was hoping to see it on Police craziest chase video's. I have never seen a Subaru out run a cop on that show! I guess you guyz are doing the Cannon Ball Run too! Kinda brings back memories! You better hurry cuz there is only a few events left for this season. C
Valentine is your friend, esp. on cross-country drives. Of course he may have nabbed you anyway, but not as likely...
I only go 7 or 50 to 60 over. I know is only a matter of time before i get caught. Does anyone know at which speed it is worth it to try to run?
I would have outrun him but I was held back by Lee. .....by his words that is.... There was still 60 more miles of curvy roads ahead and I would have wasted him. Helicopters? Maybe waiting in Sacramento, which is still like 70 miles away.... In my case, I would have tried it. If it was on a straight....I woundn't bother unless I was at speed like 100mph and I pasted him. And if I passed him at 100mph, I'd find a exit and hide out for 15mins or so. I need a valentine.... time to research.
Valentine= radar detector. Its a brand name. I got a generic one that I never use, should have ask me for it fuji!
here is the law for a police giving a speeding ticket with the use of radar. if he didn't follow any of these guidelines, then it is possible you can get off. http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/cgi-bin/waisgate?WAISdocID=26754328869+0+0+0&WAISaction=retrieve Here is the MN law regarding speed limits and such: http://www.revisor.leg.state.mn.us/stats/169/14.html Just thought I would post these cause I thought it was good information to know.

I used to go driving in the mountans there on the weekends. If you looked there would have been 2 more speed traps if you were not going through during rush hour. They are near the no-break turn outs.
