If you're nice to the Fuzzz...
Then they let you away with a warning when they catch you for speeding by 29 Kph in a 50 Kph zone  And save you azzz a $300.00 fine plus licence suspension.
Mental Note: Keep a closer eye on large white cars when speeding next time :  |

I don't get it  you were doing 29 in a 50? I wouldn't call that speeding unless you were on foot . Were you doing +29 over 50  ? |

I got off 100kph over in a 50 zone once cop car had no radar, I had no license so I got a ticket for that ($50) told to slow down and push that thing until you get a license.
Got off a 35kph over once too ...
Not such joy with a radar trap though - I guess they're out to fund-raise sorry increase the safety

be nice to the fuzz
I was doing 150 ish(back before i tasted sheet metal and asphalt)...rev limiter hit in top gear of a CBRF3...cop pulled onto the interstate cherries flashing. I pulled her over and waited. Cop and I talked for a while about how stupid that was but how smart it was not to run. He ended up writing me a ticket for only 24 over. 25+ and your license gets shredded on the spot and bike impounded..Money saved....lesson learned! Save it for the track!

It's amazing how far respect will get you... while a piss poor attitude can really make your day so much worse when the red and blue lights are flashing.
