I'm OK with current state, as it's likely better for us that it's not legislated than if there were additional restrictions put on it. Or worse, just an outright ban like the other 49 states...

+1 is true.
Reminds me of OR highways with they have "Speed" signs (not speed limit). Apparently there is a technical difference. From what I have been told by a friend who lives in OR, they are basically "suggestions" which are relatively vauge... I guess that really does make each individual LEO judge, jury, and executioner. He also tells me there is a suggestion for OR drivers, and one for CA drivers (particularly in the snow). Not officially, but since when is anything the way it is supposed to be.
I digress, sorry for the 7500.....
