You got pulled over not because you were the fastest driver on the road 
but because you had out of state plates and likely the other cars around 
you didn't.  The reason is simple, you don't want to drive back from CA 
for a court appearance.  There's a lesson in here somewhere.

You think that fine is shocking, move to VA.  On second thought, don't, 
there's too damn many people here already.
