March 27, 201511 yr How did the weather impact your threshold? If it was raining, he didn't write any tickets at all.
March 27, 201511 yr Author I only gamble when I am 95 percent certain I will come out ahead. In other words, don't ever expect to find me in the casino. Or to answer another way, no I don't gamble You gamble...
March 27, 201511 yr My answer is too fast. Unfortunatley it has caused me to have more than my fair share of tickets over the years. I was traveling to El Paso a few years back and came across a sign similar to this the one in the photo. It was a wonderful driving experience.
March 27, 201511 yr Author How did the weather impact your threshold? It made me get my tail back in the city to handle all the accident calls. Or to answer your question, speed enforcement in weather in a heavy traffic environment is not a good idea. You get out of the way.
March 27, 201511 yr Author I've been known to make a few bets. :lol2: Haven't had a ticket since I was 16. Knock on wood... Safe to assume you would have busted people going 8-9 over in a 70 MPH zone? Truthfully... yes. Well... I am anyway. We have one in denial but exactly what I figured. Thanks guys.
March 27, 201511 yr .... ALWAYS cruise control between markets, not on the interstate within a beltway. Set it between 80-82.

March 27, 201511 yr Not at all. I was never a big ticket writer but when I did some interstate enforcement I preferred to wait for vehicles doing 20 over. If it was a slow day (pun definitely intended) I would go with 15 over as my starting point. You sound like my uncle lol. He always said that writing speeding tickets was a waste of time unless they were driving well over the limit. He said writing tickets to people driving 10-15 over was pointless because they would just pay the fine and continue driving at the same speeds.

I remember my last day of dedicated speed enforcement on the interstate, I was doing my typical 20 over thing and three of the four vehicles I stopped were off duty law enforcement officers.

Did you give them tickets? I love when I have the father in laws truck. FOP plates/stickers, the works.

That sounds familiar too lol. He mentioned trips to Richmond for training where his fellow employees would drive 85+ the whole way there and back.

March 27, 201511 yr Time is money and we don't want the government wasting any money. :bunny: Hah no doubt.
March 27, 201511 yr Mostly between 75-80. Try to stay under 80 but sometimes I slip a little higher and slow back down. Usually don't use CC in my car, but will in my girlfriend's because its easy for me to creep up without realizing it.
