Sherriff pointed his finger at me?

I'm with Shawn. 8 MPH over? Give me a fucking break. I know many cops and they all tell me they won't even bother unless you are going more than 15 over... :rolleyes:

 

IMHO there's a big difference between 10-15 over on a 35mph zone and on the highway. It's OK to do 50mph on a 35mph street? :eek:

 

Anyways, like someone else said, speeding is speeding. And he didn't even get a ticket. Like Hwilli said, he needs to stop being a little sissy and being all buthurt about a cop 'waving their mean little finger at me'

Hell, I have a ticket on my record for 39 in a 35. No points, $250 fine :)

 

$250? WOW. Someone didn't like you that day. I regularly drive 5mph over in areas under 55mph and have zero issues. I did get stopped many years ago for 32 in a 25 but he let me go, just telling me to keep it under 30mph to avoid issues.

 

Where I'm at there are a lot of 40-45mph zones and I usually go 45-50mph which is plenty fast on secondary roads. 35mph is tough. I usually go 40-42mph and perhaps could get stopped. Key to me is to avoid points. Fines I can deal with but points stick around too long to be worth carrying.

 

Perry Township is who I figure would nail me there but between luck, traffic, timing, etc....I've never been busted. If I was and it was $250 I'd be pissed though.

He was just warning you man. Normally when a car flashes their lights at you coming from the other direction it means either "Slow down or be cautious because there's an accident/deer/cop/etc in the road ahead." I don't see how he's a douche bag. He could have given you a ticket, but didn't. Cool cop in my book. Waving a finger is universal for being naughty, or to stop. It's what parents/teachers do to their kids to tell them they've been bad.

 

Radar does work if the cop is driving in the opposite direction. I was following a cop once and every time a car passed sometimes a white light on his light bar would flash (meaning they were speeding) Eventually it blinked at a car that was obviously going over and he whipped a u-turn and pulled the guy over.

I just drove on that road again. I somehow didn't realize it was 40 though there. I was probably going 50 hence the reason he pointed his finger.

 

no big deal. too many haters here. I'm not crying about it. Have a nice day.
