PSA: The CHP is out w/ LIDAR...

... in the Vallejo-Fairfield corridor on I-80. About an hr ago on w/b I-80, I spotted a white cruiser on the shoulder as you come around the mellow right-hand sweeper just before the American Canyon Rd/Hiddenbrooke Pkwy exit. Can't say if enforcement is particularly high today or if they were also on the eastbound side. Just offering a heads-up.

Keep your speed in check. And post any other areas throughout the Bay that y'all might have noticed activity as well.

Happy motoring.

Yep - just saw that myself. I went up to check out our datacenter and meet some new NOC people, saw 2 WRX wagons and a black OBS there.

Also got hit with what I thought was instant-on radar twice. Nothing then full blast Ka and then I see the cruiser. Luckily since I was in my car which screams PULLMEOVAHBRAH I was cruisng around 72.

Its been getting pretty bad out on the 80. CHP is always in full swing toward the end of the month, but lately its been even worse.

Sounds like somebody has never been pulled over for cruising at the speed limit. Lucky for you, Foresters don't have wings.
