Laser. I don't have any detection whatsoever, so even with radar it doesn't matter. But everytime I get a ticket, it seems like laser.

Out 290 West just this side of Dripping Springs. It was Hays county and holy crap were they raking it in. Two motorcycle cops were literally in a constant cycle of ticketing - I pulled over in front of the other cop who already had someone pulled over and before I was finished the other cop had turned around and pulled someone over behind me again.

yah, its basically just bad luck (or good luck for cop).

havent been cited for over 10yrs. da last 3-4 times i got pulled over was for cop asking were my front plate waz. so started running plates on all my cars. not worth da hassle. dey didnt ticket me for it but just got old.

$100??? What a bargain!

My wife went to driving class last night after a $215 ticket for 47 in a 35 here. I think the class was another $60 or $80.

The cop popped her from a new hiding spot that we had noticed and discussed a week previously. She couldn't understand why I wasn't very sympathetic
