Let me tell you how picky some of them are getting. I was with a couple of friends up by Clearlake Ca on Sunday when we came across someone doing about 45mph in a 55mph zone. It was a 2-lane road with a long straight away. My friend decided to pass and when he was almost around the car a Hwy Patrol Car was come around the corner in the opposite direction. He apparently had his radar on and turned around to pull us over. My friend got a ticket for doing 65 in a 55. So what was he suppose to do while passing, 55. I told him to fight it because we all thought it was BS.
What would be the problem passing a car at 55 when the car you're passing is only doing 45,you're still with in the speed limit of 55. The officer was right,65 would be speeding!
