Talking about weird; I was traveling my nornal 55MPH, in the right lane, an 18 wheeler passed me, gave me a bird, pulled in front of me slowed down to 45 MPH for the next 5 miles, gave me a long blast on his air horn then pulled away, anyone have an idea what this guy was smoking?

Ditto! Why is it when someone is late_ it's always everyone else's fault?

I was doing 75 or so and had a bunch of cars fly by me in the fast lane. Up ahead I noticed the most recent car to fly by had his brakes on, hard. I also noticed that in the center of the divider a car, backed up to a road crossover's concrete support. It was a CHP with radar. On the other side of the crossover were three CHP cars and about 8 people cars that had been pulled over. Including the guy who just has sped by me. As they were radioed a violator one of the officers would step out and wave the guy over to join the party.

There is justice.

They do the same thing here;you would think people would learn I've seen as many as 15 cars setting waiting their turn to get tickets.
old saying----- one minute saved is equal to a one hour wait and a $250 fine.

On my way through Kali right now(well sitting on the puter now)heading north and I don't think there's a hairs difference Kali, Or, Wa drives(there all from Kali anyway LOL). They mostly live in the left lane, only been honked at by one semi on the trip and damn if I know why. Been holding about 59 through Az Nv and seem to be about with the big guys. And only 4 over towing. Now I have to flip them off so the DW can't see, she thinks its not proper LOL again. Be safe!!

Lets see Kali is California. Only been honked at, responding to semi's honking. LOL = laughing out loud. 59 mph and big guys are semi's. Speed limit towing is 55, 4 over is 59. Responding to being fliped off by truckers DW = Dear Wife. OH didn't see the miss type on drives should be drivers. I had just read all the post so they were fresh.

Keep the rubber side down.

In AZ towing speed is 75 not 55 on Interstates, not sure of NV.

NV is also 75. Most trucks in Cali will be doing 62-63 MPH without being bothered by CHP. Seems the LEO's have some common sense as to not want a 15 MPH difference between car speed limit and vehicles towing speed limit.
