Pssst. Pull over.
118 in a 45 early am hours between two cities about 10 years ago. Was driving my retired SSP police Mustang and took the officer several minutes to catch up to me from his cozy little hiding spot. He was pretty upset at my speed but noticed the car and stopped mid sentence with "Is this an SSP?". We spoke for a while about his rookie days in California and his first cruiser being the SSP car as well as some of the other police vehicles I had restored or built for off duty guys. He wrote me up for 10 over and circled on the citation "73+". Could have been much worse and I have slowed my pace quite a bit these days as things have changed.
