This evening, traffic on Hwy 101 near McKinleyville came to a standstill as law enforcement pulled over a jeep. And, the officers handcuffed a suspect.

At this point we don’t know why the suspect was detained, but we’ve requested more information from the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Department and the California Highway Patrol.

Where I come from that’s called “RPS”, Residual Pinhead Slowing.

Check the pics…CHP vehicle stopped, blocking the lanes, w one passenger side door open.

Might be a blatant pinhead move to pass in that scenario.

No rubbernecking involved.
All 3 CHP passed quickly but silently, lights on, with the last one (on the left), swerving back and forth, slowing us down to an eventual standstill.

Swerving back in forth, chp refers to this as a” traffic break”.

If it’s you doing it, CHP refers to it as DUI.

Wreckless driving, I don’t drink and drive, or take pills and drive or smoke and drive.

The Lab, pure or mixed is 100% innocent. Even a tiny amount of Lab DNA produces an honest, pure of heart super being. Or so is my experience.
