It's good to see that someone is sticking up for me around here,
well, sort of...I think:)

Yes, but when you finally do get a ticket, will you look at it as fair
considering all the times you didn't get caught? Even if you think the
ticket was wrong?

Good point. Another reason excuses for speeding don't always go over/are
excepted politely. Old saying: "No such thing as a routine traffic stop."
You never know who it is your stopping for speeding.

At times it can have a definate affect upon your adrenaline levels. Like
when your running traffic at 3:00am, all the other cars in your zone are
tied up on calls (meaning no back-up for you darling!), and a store was
just robbed 15 minutes ago. When all of a sudden, a car comes flying down
the road past you at 75mph, with no plates on it. *wonderfull* You catch
up, get it stopped, and have the honor of walking that (very long 20 feet)
up to their window (all the time wondering when someone may pop up from
the back seat, and point something at you *NOT THEIR FINGER EITHER*)... 

Only to discover its some fool, who's temporary tag fell down from the
back window. 

Of course, he has no idea why you don't beleive him/want to discuss it,
when he says "Uhh, really ossifer, I have to go to the bathroom, I didn't
realize I was going so fast, Are you sure your radar guns right, I was
just blowing the carbon out of my engine, It was that other car you must
have got us confused, I just came from the car-wash and was trying to dry
it off,...*Or, would you beieve...*
etc,etc, etc...
