So I opened a piece of junk mail today at the office. It was from the California Medical Association. (I'm not a member.) This was a solicitation to join their organization. The letter started off with this:




"When your patients need urgent care, every second counts.

That's why the California Medical Association and the Los Angeles County Medical Association worked with the California Highway Patrol to revitalize legislation allowing surgeons get to their patients faster. The CHP has signed off on a program which gives doctors a special sticker to allow you to speed in an emergency, and even speed when necessary in rural areas."

What?!?!?!?!?



The form letter then went on to describe other physician advocacy stuff the CMA supports.

Hey, as long as they're dangling legalized speeding as a carrot, why not throw in booze and easy hot women (or guys, if that's your thing--it's PC California, after all) as lures to join/give them money?

Of course, if this is not just some scam and I can really get a sticker that'll allow me to speed at will, I take back all my skepticism and will be laughing all the way to normally felonous velocities.
