Default Re: Arghhh! I got a ticket!

Some LEO's are jerks, a lot would give you the shirt off their back if you really needed it. They are just like people in any business.

Maybe you got your ticket because it came up on his computer that you've had other violations so he saw no reason to cut you any slack. If your fellow employee got a ticket where everyone else around him was doing the same speed, their must have been a reason he was singled out such as weaving in and out of traffic or some other unsafe driving.

I drive a busy Interstate system to and from work where the speed limit is 50-55 depending on what part your on. Drivers routinely drive 70 plus during rush hour, and that's with an LEO in a marked car moving along with you in the next lane. The ones that get ticketed are the ones weaving in and out of lanes or making sudden lane changes across all four lanes.
