I was on Foxnews.com looking for a update on that crazy guy driving around California running from the Cops and so forth.  I still haven’t been able to find anything.  Maybe they let him pull into a hotel for the night so they can continue to pursue him tomorrow at the stop and go pace.  Anyway….I found this article.  Makes me wish I lived in California, and hoped I got pulled over…

Motorists may be in for a surprise if they spot flashing red lights in their rearview mirrors in this Sacramento suburb during the holiday season.

Police are stopping law-abiding motorists and rewarding their good driving with $5 Starbucks gift cards.

A traffic officer came up with the idea to “promote the holiday spirit and enhance goodwill between the traffic unit and the motoring public,” police Sgt. Tim Curran said.

Local businesses donated money to buy the gift cards.

“They raised a substantial amount of money,” Curran said. “They’ll be pulling over a lot of people.”

I’d be looking for cops everyday in hopes they would pull me over.  Anyway…that guy they were chasing all over SoCal…I doubt he will get one.
