Wow ... You lucky guy. That's even better than 5 over in Wyoming being a cash now, no record offense.

  No Idea where it came from but the signal seems to have shown up here in the
twisties of northern Cal about 3 years ago. Before that a circular motion
was the thing. This morning, on my way home from work, I was pulled over by
a CHP on a BMW that I failed to notice in my rear view. He claimed that I
exceeded 90 leaving the toll booths, I told him I always try to be the
fastest out so I don't have to worry about folks coming up behind me. He
told me that was the stupidest excuse he had heard in a long time, said it
would be a waste of time to write me a ticket, got on his bike and left.
Sooo, stupidity pays? Far out, Moonbeam.
