I'm not the one being unsafe on the freeway by creating a speed differential. There are two ends of the spectrum. The end blatantly breaking the law is the one at fault.

Cops need to learn to pull speeders over. It is a very rare day I see a CHP behind a motorist on the freeway. The problem with cops is that they are speeders off the clock. You don't catch a rat with another rat.

I drive as intelligently and responsibly as I know how. My only responsibility is to "save" myself and those willing to be helped.

Well said. It's a shame when those following the law are the bad guys.
