What? Seriously? Where's the bullshit? I used to run from the cops on my bike and got away with it. Bullshit=lies, bullshit does not="whatever Marko doesn't agree with". I don't tell lies, Marko. Just because you don't like me or what I say, doesn't make it bullshit. Calling me out would be proving that I was lying. Saying that you don't agree with me doesn't qualify as calling me out.

As an example, I was pulled over doing 140mph on my ZRX a couple of years ago. Never knew the cop was behind me until I began braking. I was on a 3 lane access road next to a deserted highway. In fact, I'm pretty sure I woke that cop up from a nap.

He used his common sense to make a situational assessment. He determined that since I was not a danger to anyone and was obviously not a local squid it would be prudent to give me a stern warning and let me go. If more cops were that competent I would have no problem with speeding laws.

However, what you see most commonly is speed traps being set up on very safe stretches of highway and cops writing dozens of tickets for people doing 10-15mph over who were IN THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC. Now you have numerous cars pulling over to the shoulder and creating a hazard so the city can generate revenue. The closest I ever came to being killed on a motorcycle was actually the direct RESULT of HIPO working a speed trap on I-35 during morning rush hour.
TRUTH! I've had similar experiences myself.

Good for you Bro! Shit I don't drink and I can't say that I've NEVER gotten in a car impaired! I wish there were more like you out there! Around here the cops could do nothing but nail drunk drivers and stay busy 24/7!!! All night pulling them over, all day in court!
