ReLo'd to BA from SD

in late 2006, relocated my angst, business, and social life to NoCal from SoCal ... just a 40-something chick in the 'burbs of the SF bay area who randomly posts about random topics ... the occasional quirky stories of dating (or not) at 40-ish, work-week cubeopolis frivolity, rambling musings on nostalgika, and the occasional introspective moments in life.(thanks for visiting! >p, b)

r|psa: when you speed drive through ...

Bookmark and Share

... the carquinez bridge fastrak toll lane, there is a speed limit? well ... there is, and it's not 42 miles per hour.

not 42 ... that is what i learned - on thursday morning - heading up to sacramento - all excited about lunch-din-sedaris. and apparently, i should've known that, perhaps, after i agreed to the fastrak for my hybrid (which apparently there is no additional extra special treatment for hybrids to see how fast one can make it through the fastrak toll lane). maybe i should read through the faqs for fastrak?! OR maybe i could have just looked at the signs vomiting all over the approach to the fastrak toll lane?!

when asked by mr. hot cop ... if i knew how fast i was going, i said "no." and then he showed me the speed gun thingy. (thanks for sharing, mr. hot cop) regardless, i'll either be paying a fine and/or going to traffic school. and in that case, i'll either be physically or virtually going to traffic school. (who physcially goes to traffic school?)

You know, like offering to give him a free...

consultation on getting a federal air quality permit? Yeah, that's it.
