I....Can't....Drive....65!


   Well, I got nailed in Pittsburg County, OK for speeding! Like an idiot, I forgot to ship some important components out from California for the test. I was racing around southeast Oklahoma looking for parts on other rigs most of the day. Down near McAlester I saw the blue lights flashing in the rearview. Apparantly, I was doing 79 in a 65 zone..... I think I was a more interesting target because of my Texas plates, and once the Oklahoma Highway Patrol saw my CA license he was almost giddy! Needless to say, I will be heading to the McAlester courthose this week to plead my case, hopefully I can get away without a point on the record.
   On a side note, I have been driving the speed limit since then, and it appears that everyone in Oklahoma drives the speed limit all the time?! How strange. I go 65 and nobody passes me......

People seem to be driving the speed limit here more, too. I think maybe it's the gas prices?
