I got the opportunity to go to work with a friend tonight who drives a highway patrol car for the police. We had to go really fast (I won’t say how fast) to catch a guy doing 126km/h (78mph). For the foreigners, the speed limit here is 100km/h, the roads are not straight, and it is strictly policed.

Rush hour is the boring bit, although there was a minor accident that we had to go to.

If you get the chance, do it. More details may follow…

One thing I forgot to say: When we stopped anyone, they all reach for their cell phone the second we walk away from the car to write-up the ticket. I guess everyone wants to tell someone. Either to vent, or for consolment? What did you do last time you were stopped?
