Been circulating in e-mail all day, not my words, think its true?

California Highway Patrol will launch a 30-day speeding ticket frenzy in
South Orange County starting January 25, 2006. The state estimates that
22 million dollars will be generated in speeding tickets. 3 million will
go to pay California Highway Patrol officer overtime. There will be 90
California Highway Patrol officers on duty at all times patrolling the 7
freeways. They are the following: 73, 55, 133, 241, 57, 5, 605 freeways.
Now 7 mph above the limit can justify a ticket and every California
Highway Patrol officers is supposed to pull a car over and write a
ticket every 10 minutes.
They have issued 50 brand new unmarked Crown Victoria cruisers and they
are bringing all their part timers on full time. This is a test by the CHP to raise
the extra funds for the State of California. The California State
Legislators dreamed up this program to help close the budget gap or
something like that. I was told KICU-FM confirmed all of this.
So be safe and don't forget speeding tickets are on you.
