Fast enough that it took you 10 years to catch me.
No, I never said that. I'm a smart arse, but I'm not stupid...ok, that's debatable, too ;)
I've been in the U.S. for over 10 years, and in that entire time the only ticket I got was one, single parking ticket...until today :P
The cop cited me under CVC 22350 which I think was a big mistake on his behalf. I've spent most of the day reading up on how to fight my ticket, and from what I've found a 22350 is one of the easier tickets to beat.
I thought I'd heard that the posted speed limit is not a hard & fast limit, and from what I can tell, that's absolutely correct. (*note - This is purely my opinion. I am not a Lawyer and this does not constitute professional legal advice) So just because the officer nabbed you for allegedly doing 51mph in a 35mph zone does not necessarily mean you are guilty of violating CVC 22350. Hell yeah, I'm gonna fight this :D
Of course I may lose...but I'm still gonna fight it!

a recall some comedian somewhere telling a similar story -
"so i got pulled over and the officer came up to my window and said "sir do you know how fast you were going?' and i said, 'well YOU'RE the rocket scientist with the RADAR gun, YOU tell ME!' ...well actually what i really said was 'nossir' ."
i'm still waiting for a state trooper to pull me over in the hope that the following conversation will ensue:
"do you know why i pulled you over?"
"i bet you're going to try to sell me a ticket to the trooper's ball"
"troopers don't have balls, ma'am"
heheh.
