Your definition of "narrowly" and mine are very different.

A helpful article would be "Get your car registered you Tea Party bum."

No, I don't know how much they "waste" and neither do you. They are the largest State Police organization in the country and are arguably the most professional in the execution of their duties. I do know their budget is a bit over $2 billion per year out of a total state expendature of over $160 billion. These people…

I'm a California Taxpayer, as in I genuinely do pay taxes and am somewhat propserous. I say this is awesome, let's add some motorcycles and a drone to the mix. Some pyrotechnics would really set this whole thing off nicely. Keep up the good work CHP. Let the haters hate. And let me out of my next speeding ticket,…

"Obcenely rich pension?!"

Where the fuck have all of you been?! The CHP EVOC driving program has been around in one form or another since the early 1960's. There are photos and videos online of Polaras, Monacos, and the like, all tearing up the track. While not so common anymore, several large cities have motorcycle show teams. Ever been to…

The vehicles are ones that have been well used and would otherwise be retired from the Fleet (as are the Blue Angels F-18s). The drivers are the Police Academy Training cadre who would not be out…

Your reporting skills and observations suck! The Headline, and story details based on your description is Bullshit—

I rarely take the side of law enforcement officials blindly. However, I see very little wrong here. Clearly the Motorcyclist decided to run, and the cop decided he…

*cough* Focus ST *cough*

I dont think Chevy pumps sound through the speakers on any car. That's BMW shit.

All his stats are in dual-wielding.

Nice to see that one cop with his Tazer and AR-15 out.

He comes across the way he does on TopGear because it's a tried and tested method and what people expect from him so he hams it up because he's a showman. If you've ever watched other programmes he's made such as War Story, Inventions That Changed The World, Great Britons, etc... you'll see his passion for invention,…

what?

You need to go away
