Depends on what the law actually is. In California, unless the sign says
"maximum" the speed limit is Prima faci and is really what is safe,
reasonable and proper and less than 65 mph. Midnight and 5 over is no
unsafe, 99,9999% of the time.


Does California still not allow RADAR to be used on the interstates?
Nearly 20 years ago, when I was out there doing some work for CHP, that
seemed to be the case.

I went for a ride-along with a CHP officer one afternoon. He used RADAR
on a secondary road to clock and pull over a girl in a car and a male
truck driver. But out on the I-5 he paced a car and pulled it. Turned
out to be a girlfriend of his wife's. The truck driver got a ticket.
Both the girls got verbal warnings. Heh.


They use it on the interstates now. They were never prevented from using
radar anywhere. They were prevented from purchasing RADAR for the CHP.
But was ok if some other entity bought it and gave it to CHP to use.

Same as Arizona in the 1960's.

The only ticket I ever got in Arizona was a 70 in a 55 and it was $5
no points

That would be more effective. Easy money in small increments that
wouldn't be a burden on anyone financially.
