I knew it was coming... Rat bastard state police clocked me at 68mph in a 45mph zone.

$167 bucks added to their slush fund. Good thing I haven't been caught doing the 130 mph I do on the Media bypass. :nono:

Passing in the median? That's some straight up Sammy Hagar stuff right there...

... except he doesn't have a median, but you get the idea.

You running a detector or other countermeasures?

Thanks BusyBadger,good video. Yes,I bought a Beltronics Vector V6 for about the price of that ticket.
Saved me twice already. I can't afford a laser jammer at this time.
Like the video says "I can't drive 55" in this Z. :rolleyes:

Sounds like a race track could be in your future.

Great Vid! Gosh, didn't think that song was that old till I saw the cars and the hairstyles. :chuckle:

Somehow, I haven't gotten a ticket since 1977. Some of that I atribute to a radar detector, some of it is just plain ole LUCK! One day I was coming home from a car club meeting in my Camaro. I was out in the middle of nowhere so I stopped, torqued it up and nailed it. When I slowed back down I looked in my mirror and there was a white Charger on my tail. :ohno: I just looked straight ahead and drove normal. He passed me and went on. I doubt he would have done the same if a young man had been behind the wheel.

Had one on my azz one day when I had my WS6 Trans Am. I was running an open cut-out. He followed me for miles just daring me to break a law. He finally got tired of following me. Probably figured I was driving someone else's car. :biggrin:
