mrbret Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Maybe going from Polaris to W.Broad..... Although most seem pretty confused & lost on a straight road so who knows where they are going or should be.All I know is they should not be on Polaris ruining my ride to work.

ReconRat Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 I won't always slow down, but you never know why the cruiser is slowed, so caution is advised. I've seen sudden stops, lane changes, or u-turns by cruisers. I almost smacked a OSHP in the back end when he suddenly decided to do a U-turn on the freeway. I don't get too close to them now, when it looks like they are working the traffic. I usually flash brake light once for spotting a speed trap (and correct speed quickly if necessary). And flash brake light 3 times for danger signal or other hazard ahead. Mostly because I think the actual potential danger is behind me, not in front of me.Also realize that when radar clocking vehicles, if one suddenly slows down, that's often the one that gets the ticket. Same thing for the one that doesn't slow down when all the others do. If all the vehicles are doing the same speed, it's hard to tell. Lasers, of course, target an individual vehicle.

EvilTwin Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 always match traffic when cops are around, its the best thing to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara_Rides Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 My Dad, who is an awesome guy has told me for the last seven years, everytime I get behind the wheel off my car "Don't Go Over 70" Basic advice, but even if you pass the SHP they don't do anything for 5 miles over...I use it when I can...but sometimes my lead foot doesn't agree with my brain...lol..

Broad at 4:30 lolI think they are all on 270/670/70/71 all day, everyday... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara_Rides Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Alright, you might be right...they all need to just get off the road for us anyway...like in Bruce Almighty...just have them park over to the side so we can get through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilTwin Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 71 between 161 and at least 670 is usually clear, although I did see a car pulled over on the south-bound side at Hudson the other day when I was north-bound. But I speed on that section anyways, whether on my bike or in my sport cage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
