I wonder how that is a health and safety code. They didn't say why the truck was pulled over.

The California state laws are under the 'health and safety codes' I'm not sure what will come of it. Fortuna is up in Humboldt County south of Arcata and Eureka.
Sucks to have your effort for the year taken away but it does happen.
I'm not sure they will see any time for it. In that area you can get pretty high yields. I'm guessing he/she will keep their mouth shut (or not) and get off with probation and some jail time. The county prison is overflowing, and there is a huge meth problem, and tar heroin is pretty big now in Eureka.
Just another day in Humboldt.
