As I understand it, CHiP officers "sit" on The San Diego Freeway to actually "catch" speeders at 2 AM in the morning.
I know they also sit on the 15 from San Diego to Corona. Once you hit the mountains, they cannot manuever as easily. But, when you get in the desert, they get you, like out in Bakersfield and Barstow. And the Nevada State Troopers sit at the state line at the sign with PreMadonna Maderia to catch racers.
All Californians know you don't speed in certain areas... The only thing is up thru LA, after Camp Pendleton and after the 405 split, you can't speed. Too much traffic.
You could speed after the round corner after San Clemente before Oceanside. And MAYBE every now and then on the 78 HWY. But you NEVER speed after the 52 HWY, or 163 turn off.
You could speed on the 805 thru the ghetto and barrios. But once you get past Otay Mesa, you don't speed anymore.
Then on the I-8, some days, you speed, but maybe not El Cajon or the Imperial Valley. On I-10, you can't speed. Too much traffic. The next one is I-40.
And it is plain dumb to speed on the beach side of the O.C. Maybe Victorville and Moreno Valley, Apple Valley areas. But they have better helicopters there.
Have you witnessed a "run for the border" on TV? And I was on the dayum I-10 when OJ flipped the EFF out in 1994. I was pissed
