You got lucky. I got my first ticket under nearly that same circumstance. On Hwy 46 between 5 and 101, heading to SLO. Caught behind a tanker truck that couldn't pull 35mph up the hills. I caught an opening on a straight away, downshift to 2nd, hammer down. rowing through the gears, was at 85 when I cleared him and CHP crown vic popped over the upcoming crest. saw his lights come on before he even got passed me. I pulled over and waited for him to get turned around. He came up to the car (Mustang), "Do you know how fast you were going?" "Not exactly, I just wanted to minimize my time in oncoming traffic to get around a truck going 35." (sounded logical to me). "Here's your ticket."

balls.

Glad you lucked out.
