I would comment, but then I would be accused of "abusing my power"

Bad cop, no dohnut!

That thread was classic. Don't worry bitter rod, we'd love to hear what you have to say about it.

OP, was the cop on your ass the whole 3 miles?

Seems like you never check around you then...

haha not sure what OP means but I assume you were talking to me. Yeah he said 6 miles back he clocked me while going the opposite direction. Unmarked car which is why I did not notice or I would have just taken off. So 6 miles back he clocks me, takes 3 miles to catch me, then 3 miles following me. It was on a 2 lane road with a 60 MPH speed limit. Going 84 there was no reason to check behind me

I might come off like a dick but to be honest, speeding tickets are the only time I really break the law. This will settle me down and likely be the last infractions I ever get. Just like in my car shortly after I got it at 16 (also two tickets in a month and then never another. I am a boring 24 year old kid now who trades equities and mutual funds during the day. Even in between tickets I text my buddy who I was meeting with at the camp site "Just got my first ticket, lets try for two". The $300 is not a problem, just hoping my insurance does not decide to come down too hard on me.

I seriously doubt that!......Sorry, it was my turn to come off like a dick. kik, sorry again, I suffer from keyboard dyslexia, I meant lol
BTW OP means original post (or poster)

Macbuell- I am surprised that he didn't get pissed that you didn't stop for 3 miles. However, in an unmarked car, you kind of expect that. I am assuming that it was during the day, which means it is hard to see the lights anyway.

I certainly do not drive slowly on my 12R, but have not yet been stopped. I am sure it is coming soon, but that silver badge always seems to set me free...

A military I.D. hanging from the rearview mirror worked for me countless times.

Roger that...much respect for you sir.

yeah it was early. I was going camping and wanted an early morning beer. 1st ticket at 9am as written on the ticket. 2nd at 10:37 or something before I got my first beer. 2nd police officer was NICE, and UNDERSTANDING. Unlike the first officer who talked about his jap crotch rocket and how he could not keep it under the speed limit either. This was after I explained AMERICAN MADE a couple times.

I have so much respect for those in our services. They are the only reason I have what I have. I wish I would have joined. Lasik was out of the option when I was a kid or I would have been airforce if they would have had me
