Willy & Randle
Man I understand, I haven't had a ticket in over 10yrs. We got the call last Saturday to go up to Suffolk va because my wife's dad was going and they were calling the family in so we left because were told he had about 4 hrs left (it takes us 55 minutes to get there from home) so we didn't speed. Well they called us about 1/2 way there and said he was failing fast so I was speeding 68 in a 55 on a 4 lane road not swerving in and out of traffic, we'll one of Chesapeake's finest turned around and came back, I tried to explain why I was speeding but he didn't care he said the pope could be dying and it still didn't give me the right to speed. Well I wonder how he is going to feel when it happens to him. I wonder why it's ok for them to speed to get to the dept to clock out but not ok for everyone else. Chesp is notorious for that. * Also randle: here in my neck of the woods the prosecutor won't let them write a ticket if youre going 9 or less above the speed limit. * * * * By the way he died 5 minutes before we got there. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Sorry for the loss in your family, I would have let you go......actually I wouldnt have stopped you for 13 over. I dont stop for 9 over, I reduce to 9 over. I stop for 15 over or sometimes 20 over if they are all flying.

OK, from a non-cop perspective. Why is it anybody with a CDL gets harassed? Maybe harassed isn't the right word. I have a class A CDL, and when I have had the pleasant opportunity to be pulled for speeding, I am given ZERO slack. I have even gotten a ticket for speeding, when I know for a fact I was not, but the car behind me was gaining fast. I got the ticket because I was driving a yellow Mustang AND had a CDL. They even checked to be sure I had contact lenses on. That NEVER happened before the CDL.
OK, I'm better now, I'll crawl down off of my soapbox. I do respect the job our peace officers do, God bless them all. |

Yeah, they say red is a cop catcher, I disagree. Most of the cops I have met are super cool, and one even remarked at how nice a car it was as he was giving me the ticket (the one I did deserve). I had to trade it in for a truck when I got the V.

A few weeks back I was helping a freind move from TX to AL and while driving the big rental truck we were stopped for speeding in Texas. He let us go with a warning that 69mph in a 65mph zone was too fast :-/. I guess they are really picky about their speed limits in TX.... I guess it could've been worse... By the way, the only reason we got stopped for doing 69mph is because the #$% rental truck wouldn't go any faster ::)
Just thought I'd share my law-shattering ways so you all would know what kinda rebel-without-a-clue you are deal'n with ;D |
