I just got back from Newport News/Hampton area Friday (lots of work out there for us at the moment) and I've never been so nervous to drive on the interstate.
just to rub it in, a majority of cities in SoCal/San Diego have turned off their red light cams due to a change in state law eliminating quota based income for the cities.
Also I got a warning for going 89 mph from the CHP last Friday (the 13th!). Can you believe that? This car was tailgaitng me so I kept going faster to get out of the way. changed to a slower lane- still all up in my bumper- gave it more juice, then got lit up-the tailgater was a CHP Tahoe truck
... anyways I think he felt bad for egging me on as I couldn't see his car thru the self dimming mirror. it was somewhat humorous really. Traffic enforcement has changed a lot in 20 years here. I'm not saying that they don't care, but they kind of don't.
