Heads up: Popo's all over 101 today

I was driving home from San Jose earlier today and I saw:

-a city popo motorcycle coming off of 280 onto 101 south.
-shortly after he exited I saw a CHP coming up towards me from behind.
-maybe 10 miles south of the 280/101 junction there was a CHP motorcycle with his radar out sitting in the shadows of an overpass.
-less than 1/4 of a mile south of him was another chp motorcycle that had pulled someone over (might have been a small speed trap).
-about a mile south of him, on the northbound side was another chp motorcycle sitting on the side of an onramp than banked as it turned, so no one headed north could see him.

I think that was all for up towards there, but there were more south of gilroy near prunedale.

-where theres a road inbetween 101N and 101S there was a CHP car hidden, but I think the officer was napping because his head was down
-about a mile south of him was a CHP patrol car waiting to get on 101S
-finally, a ways south of them was a chp motorcycle on the northbound side that had someone pulled over.

Ah, sorry man... That was me.


I was in my new 06 TR getting road head while I was totally wasted on pain killers all while racing another car WHILE I was cleaning one of my pistols... This all happened in a school zone btw.

Sorry about that.

COPS are everywhere, sometimes more than others, but regardless it's becoming easier to get tickets these days...I think?
