BAM! got me for 105 in a 70, changing lanes without signalling and reckless driving. oops. anyway, i got all three thrown out in court because the judge thought the officer's methods were "Questionable".
but i dont think all cops are bad. some a dicks, thats true, but most are doing it cuz they love the job and are very decent people.
Rofl omfg you got pwned. You should have had to take all counts. your decision should probably be to not go 105 in a 70 [censored].

The crux of the matter is people are breakin' the law. Me boring, maybe - but I'll never be sorry for keeping within the law. Wanna go fast? Take it to the track. If you break the law, expect that you will eventually get caught. The odds are against you. Just hope you don't have to live with maiming some innocent 'cause 10 mph over is no big deal in your opinion.
By the way, how's your ride doin'? I'm planning on doing the Y-pipe mod & heading to the SE CEGer meet in the Smokies. We're gonna run the Dragon.
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

Move to South Florida. Skate parks going up all over the place. The municipality that I work for is building a huge facility for skaters & boarders. Not my project, but I have access to all the pictures if you wanna see. 
No worries here, mate.

Lol well the drinking thing was the fault of my own inability to express my opinion on the matter. Its ok to drink , you just shouldnt have to do it everytime you go somewhere.
I am anal about driving infractions to an extent. Because you risk my life , and other innocent peoples lives doing stupid [censored] like 106 in a 70. But I admit that sometimes I drive fast , but I dont do it in a manner to really endanger anyone but me. You are one boring SOB.

If you knew Kissimmee, FL you would understand and give this guy a little slack.
Some of the quotes in this thread are unbelieveable. How some of you portray your disrespect for law enforcement officers because they should be getting the people who are breaking the real laws. I have news for you, if you drive over the posted speed limit, chances are that the legislature in your state has deemed that a violation of law. Whether you are 1 mph over, 10 mph over, or 50mph over, you can be stopped by a police officer.
It also seems as though some of you believe that we as police officers recieve some sort of personal benefit from writing you a ticket. What do you think that I get? A cut of the fine? A promotion? A letter from my supervisor saying how good of an officer I am? Usually what I get is a trip to court on my day off. Sometimes I get a nice comment from the motorist on the roadside. But, I always get the satisfaction of knowing that you will be thinking about that chunk of change you lost next time you think about endangering the lives of innocent people by BREAKING THE LAW.
Lithium, I hope you take a vacation to Mickey land in FL one day. And, I hope to see you on the side of the road. BTW - speeding fines in FL are pretty steep. I will be there for you when you are the victim of that highway robbery you keep complaining about, trust me....

I was already at mickey land. Six flags is where it's at...
Who makes these laws? Oh yeah, those nice friendly honest politicians... almost forgot. Just because something is the law, doesnt mean it is right or wrong. Police are just doing their job, ok I understand that, but many abuse their power.
So, its legal for a cop to endager lives on the road when they are doing about 65 on a busy street in Chicago? I dont see how that is. Oh and laws dont really apply to politicians unless it has to do with them taking money from the government. heh, so I feel like bringing up amsterdam again. How high is the crime rate there? How many issues do they have there? If you think about it, some laws actually induce crime. Marijuana is illegal, ok... so now drug dealers are out on the street selling it to minors and carrying guns. This is better than it being legal, and stores actually selling it? I dont do drugs, but just imagine if it was legal. Alcohol causes more problems than marijuana ever has. OH yeah, and that brings me to another point. Some of my friends have been stopped by a cop and could have been arrested for posession, but what the cop did, is he took the stuff for himself and let them go. He took their lighter too. (hmmm, i wonder?)
The autobahn also comes to mind...

Speaking of Amsterdam, Ive heard first hand accounts of the drug shops and the [censored] places they inhabit and the [censored] that surrounds them , legalizing it doesnt solve any problems other than more addicts.
