I don't care if you have a lawyer or not.
Not all cops are like that. The one who pulled me over was relaxed and calm the entire time. As soon as I saw lights I threw on my hazards and pulled over. Keys out of the bike, helmet off, license out ready for him. I knew I was speeding and was 100% compliant. I said sir everytime I spoke to him and showed him respect. I was wrong. No trying to get out of it. Amazing what communication and respect can do when talking with cops.

Latest ticket was the night I got my Z. 4 hours after I drove her off the lot I got pulled over for 47 in a 35. I was ~50 ft from the 45 mph speed limit sign. I pointed out to the officer that the sign was right there and he said the limit didn't go up till I got to the sign. Wrote me my ticket for $181 and I paid it next paycheck.

I had a similar ticket. I knew there was an 80km/hr zone just ahead (4-500ft) and I was in a 60k zone, I end up getting the light and a crept up to 80k and sure enough at the last driveway there was a cop about 100-150ft from the 80k zone and that was in a pathfinder ...... I was heading out to snowboard

Yea was a pretty crappy ticket but he was technically correct so I just said yes sir and paid it. Easiest thing to do.

I know some cops are more lenient than others, gotcha. But you also have cops like this one who pulled over Matt Farah.... lol sucks to be him.
