Damn this has been an incredible SPEED year and yeah not so much for everything else Covid related. I have had some incredible run days and especially back in the March April shut down. You could go by cops at 20 plus over and nothing I mean nothing. And as many know the media started even telling people to slow down since you started hearing the 100 mph drivers more than ever. The MD and VA law enforcement in the last few weeks are really out and nailing people again. I guess they are down in revenues and they have seen enough of the rampant driving at huge speeds. I have seen new motorcycle cops haingin out in areas you would never see them. And sure there is always the ares if you know your neck of the woods you can get away with things. But just a friendly heads up and maybe your part of the country they are still laying low but not here in the Washington DC metro area. And sometimes I wonder since the rioting in the streets and cities never happened the LEO are being told go back to the routine as well.

Folks in California didn't get the memo. I got passed in the BIG trk doing 63 in a 55 trk limit by 7 or 8 cars on the double yellow and the DO NOT PASS signs.

F'n laughable.

Here is a classic example of California.

Double yellow × 2. DO NOT PASS signs on right.
They had to erect plastic pcv markers to deter passing. As you can see, many are missing. People will still pass and absorb whatever damage to car.

In their defense - WHY THE HELL WOULDNT THEY ALLOW PASSING THERE? Straight shot with plenty of view down the road...

They have ramped back up here as well. My countermeasures have been so quiet I was beginning to wonder if they were broken :rolleyes:
Last few weeks tho, things have gone back to pre-lockdown levels.

Because Californians still can't do it right, or safely that's why.

We have a highway merge with a street and then less than 100 yards later an intersection. Idiotic traffic planning (and a whole new bridge built at tax payer expense because Walmart asked for it). Wrecks happen all the time and they try and keep folks laned-up using those candlesticks. Those get wiped out in their entirety nearly weekly. The carnival of blood.

Gots to see the judge Jan 11th. Speeding ticket, 90 in a 55. Was doing over 120 but the judge will kick my ass. No speeding tickets in 25 years. Just this BS story I can run by him works. Car that pulled me over was a solid black challenger. Like mine but not a H/C. Could have been worse. Take classes, hefty fine, pick 1/2 empty beer bottles and un used condoms. No dead opposums.
