Been there, done that. :) I *hate* that! The period where they lurk but
don't do anything is the worst...

Sigh. Deja vu, except I got a ticket for said offense.

D'oh! Wow, when I'm pulled over in my Omni GLH for 80mph offenses, I think
they must think I'm trying hard to speed. :) Little do they know that if
I was trying, I'd be doing an extra speed limit on top of that. :laugh:
Keep the NSX, I guess it's safer!

I give you a week at most. The fear of speeding wears of quickly!
