Umm, the California Highway Patrol is not a federal entity, (keyword being California). In fact, they were one of the first police organizations that as the result of a lawsuit stopped arresting medical marijuana patients. Unless you are doing something shady, or don't have your paperwork together, the CHP probably isn't going to bother you, (unless you are driving high, then you deserve to be arrested).

I also have to point out that this thread wasn't written too well. There is a difference between having a medical marijuana state issued card and simply being a medical marijuana patient. The card is purely optional in California and not a requirement. Not having the card would not result in breaking any laws. In California all you need to be a legal medical marijuana patient is a signed letter from a qualified physician, nothing else.
