I don't know about down south, but I grew up driving some stretch of I-5 through Salem every day (once I was old enough to drive, of course), and up to Portland occasionally. I always sped (as in, up to 90 in a 65 zone) and I never got pulled over. Rarely even saw a cop on the highway for that matter outside of the major drinking holidays. Unless the state's budget somehow increased dramatically lately (ha!) I have a hard time imagining that's changed. As I said though, that's up north a ways.

This seemed waaay too familiar. The ONLY time in my life I have been driving with someone while they were getting a ticket was in Oregon, in a car with California plates. This was the only speeding ticket this person has had in his life. What kills is that we were only driving over the speed limit for less than half a mile, and then not more the 10 mph over. Lame. "I readjusted my speed right away..." "I know you're from out of state, but you must follow *Oregon* state driving laws while you are here."

Oh great.... I'm moving there in a few months and I'll have Minnesota plates for awhile. Can't wait.

Nope focus, your safe it's only people from california. Whne I moved there and told people I was form Pittsburgh I got "oh california" and they all moved away form me. then I said "Pennsylvia" and they all moved back and started being all freiendly like. hehe. it's mostly to do with economics, the california's retire and sell their million dollar houses move up to OR and buy houses pushing the house market up to a point where most locals can't aford to buy a house in thier home town. that's a small pice of it but you'll get the rest of the storie when you move there.

There is a California in Pennsylvania, and they have a college known as cup.

I'm thinking he went through Canby. The cops here are as bored as hell

I once got pulled over for an improperly displayed license plate. That's not what made me think he was bored.

He told me WHY they pull over for equipment violations. Then, he started talking about his college days, because he had the same make, model, and year as my car back then. The body was better than mine, but in his opinion, my car sounded like it ran great.

Yeah, I think that "One cop for every driver" isn't too far off when it comes to Canby...

Traffic cops are just doing their job, by and large ... the people who put them OUT there, in such force, and encourage them to write plenty of tickets (hey, has anyone ever challenged ticket-writing quotas as unconstitutional?) should have their knees broken with nightsticks.

Or the people who pass traffic laws.

Oh, well sure, if you're from California they'lll be all over you. There's your problem. Reminds me of the time we had a sign up on the Californian border saying "Welcome to Oregon. Closed."

So, what, is it basically most of Oregon hates all of California? That's rather small minded of 'em, even if its supposed to be in good fun, innit?
