Beware of CHP driving personal cars!!!
I love how some idiots automatically assume ALL cops are douches, even when they are merely doing their job
rememeber too... that cops in kalif are "on duty" 24/7.
granted, if the dude wasnt speeding that much, IF THE CHP dude was still going to work, he woulda just let him go...

I saw that happen a few years back on Whipple Ave near the Target. Some woman was tailgating me on my way to work in a black mercedez when out of the blue I see siren lights coming from the dashboard of a silver honda w/tinted windows which then pulled the car over. It was strange.

i would call the cops and tell them what was going on and not pull over until a marked car came.

Not unless the scion was out there trying to race people, then it would.
It actually doesn't matter if someone calls you in for something as the cops can't do anything unless they see it happen. But of course, if another ON Duty cop calls it in (case of the scion) the black and white could theoretically do something about it.
This is actually a law and in the vehicle code. For a cop to pull you over, the car must have identification on the doors. So if a plain car ever tries to pull you over by law you don't have to or at least ask the plain car/clothed cop to radio in a uniformed cop before you will give up any of your information.

yeah, what the hell I thought it was "good to see them doing their job right for once" when they bull someone else over and were only douchebags when you get pulled over (you in general, not you ucbsti)

on this same note, i saw two dark blue chevy suburbans take down a supra that was mashing at 100+ in between traffic on a friday night. this was around hwy680/237 area. the suburban nearly swiped me as i was in the second to fast lane, doing the speed limit, when this happened. it was all pretty chaotic, but the subruban had a full light bar on the dash.
+1 to the cops though, another crazy-*** young kid off the road.

A part of me can see this as a way to issue entrapment though. If they roll out a bunch of these things and they do drive aggressively, get ricer to race them, then all of a sudden CHP pulls ricer racer over and scion goes homefree, how will ricer racer even know?
Well, I don't race ppl, so i'm safe. But I do drive over 65 usually.
