GF Pulled over by CHP...Guess what for?

So my GF gets pulled over on Friday night by CHP for doing the speed limit!!!! Cop told her that this kind of car (camaro) doesn't go the speed limit unless the person is drunk. So he suspected a drunk driver that wasn't weaving or driving erratic, but because the driver was going the speed limit! WTF!

Funny thing I had gotten pulled over early that same morning by CHP (85 in a 65) but was let go cause of the .mil (USMC brotherhood) hookup (Officer Discretion more likely).

GF told me this happened to one of her employees recently too (pulled over for doing the speed limit), but her dad is a LT in the SFPD...She told the CHP he had no probable cause and of course would be hearing from someone soon over the matter...wonder if someone (CHP officer) got an earful for that one lol...

That's kinda funny. So we're expected to be driving faster and it's ok? Are we going to get pulled over if we DO obey the law?

Damned if we do, damned if we don't. That is the one problem with owning this car, it touches too many irrational emotions.

For reals...that's what happened to me the same morning...setting the pace...

I think they are fishing for revenue...kinda scary and probably grey area in legality...I'm sure they write it in their reports to make it fly though...

That's basically what I keep in my mind when I'm driving. Of course we want to obey the speed limits in CA but at the same time not make it so obvious were not trying to get pulled over for going above it.

God I love this state..
