California Highway Patrol pulls over teeny-tiny car, driver cited for suspended license
A California Highway Patrol officer in Northern California made an unusual traffic stop this week.
While patrolling a highway near Redding, a CHP officer spotted a miniature “low-speed vehicle” traveling in a 40-mph zone. The driver pulled over the LE Coco Coupe Electric LSV Golf Car and determined that the person behind the wheel was driving with a suspended license.
California law allows for low-speed vehicles or roads where the speed limit is 35 mph or less. Drivers must also have a valid driver’s license.
