I had the cruise set at 70 (70 zone) today while patrolling. People went right past me without a second thought.
Though, I was in the right lane. |

He's probably going exactly the speed limit because everyone calls and complains on every cop for the slightest infraction. (Your cop was driving 5 miles over the speed limit etc)

Considering we have left lane camper laws in my jurisdiction, yes, it would make me mad to see a cop breaking the law.
If everyone could just "keep right except to pass" every highway would flow better

CHP tends to dawdle around in the two right lanes doing 55mph (we have a split speed limit for trucks).
This typically creates a massive bottleneck as everybody slows down to stay behind the cop. When they finally stop a truck or exit the freeway my commentary is typically "Pace car is pulling off the track and we are back to green flag racing again" |

Pull up next to him, roll down 5% tinted window. Give him a Wolf stare, drop down to 3rd and roll the 75 shot as you row through the gears.
That's how I envisioned me doing it in my old WS6 twenty years ago. |

I saw a hilarious brake check the other day.
A slick top & somewhat stealthy cruiser was in the left lane, and I saw one of the morning commuters flying along & zippering in my rear view mirror. He got right up to, and started tailgating the LEO. The cop simultaneously tapped his brakes and lit his car up like a LaGuardia runway, then went dark & accelerated away. |

3 tickets in total, all been dismissed since I started driving... It's not exactly hard to get out from. Traffic lawyers don't even charge much, most less then $100. You can get out of anything, but that is not what you said, you laid out your strategy. Then when confronted with the fact you have not done that and would not do that, you changed your strategy. Pure bluster. You were called out on it and then demurred. |

Again, your statement was pure bluster and you demurred when called out. Now you are trying to run around all the details of the conversation. In summary. Passed cop with cruise on in the middle lane. He pulls me over and gets pissed because I don't answer his questions. I give him my license, insurance, registration, and a medical card for Aspergers (emergency contact, with basic summary). He goes back to his car, puts his spot light on my mirror blinding me. Comes back up yelling with his flashlight, asking questions and wanting to search. I ask for another officer, he refused. So I asked for my ticket and court date. He went back to his car, gave me a ticket for not wearing my seat belt (I was)... I recorded the stop on my blackberry back then and gave the video to a lawyer. Never made it to court, as it was dismissed. |
