I hear every bit of your anger. I was going to collage about 2 months ago and a punk of a bicycle cop steped out in front of me and almost got ran over. He ticket me for 57 in a 35.

I'm hoping when I get thru with the whole Paramedic schooling that I will never get another ticket again... So I know what you mean about not liking cops...



I know it's already been said, but for Christ's sake, if you're speeding and you get busted it's nobody's fault but your own. 57 in a 35 isn't nitpicking by any stretch. And then you keep speeding after you get a ticket and get another one... How is that the fault of some police officer?

I'm not gonna sit here and say I've never exceeded the speed limit. If I'm on the expressway I normally travel between 70-80, or whatever speed the flow of traffic is moving. If I get pulled over for speeding, then it's my fault because I've been careless about my speed and watching for cops. I simply DO NOT speed on surface streets 'cause that's where most of your speed traps get set.

I think some of you guys have an "everybody is out to get me" mentality. If you don't want to get hassled by police officers, don't speed and don't draw extra attention (illegal tint, lights, etc.) to your car. It's very simple.
