The California Highway Patrol appears to do this in Southern California as well. I've seen a patrol car start weaving between two lanes, then three, weaving more and more until it's blocking all lanes of traffic like a weavy pace car.
- mds 16y agoThey do that to slow or stop traffic when there's debris or an accident ahead.
