ok so this morning i was driving to work which is in a town close to the one where i live, the total distance is probably 25 or so miles. im running late so im driving pretty fast, obeying all of the laws except for the speed. when i get into the town where i work, tyler, im going around the loop which is a 6 lane road with a divider. im driving around the loop at around 75 maybe 80 at the most, speed limit is prob average 60. when i got more into town my valentine 1 was going off for about 4 miles straight saying that there was a radar behind me, i kept looking out the back to try to see the cop but i couldnt so i just figured that there was a cop driving behind me a little ways. when i got to the road i was gonna turn on to get to the parking lot of work i got in the turn lane and was the first car in line. then i notice a police car coming up behind me rather quickly, no lights. he got right behind me at the light and when it turned green he stuck with me. the entrance to the parking lot is about an eighth of a mile up that road and right before the entrance he turned on his lights. i proceed into the parking lot and park in my normal spot since its so close to the entrance. then i get my insurance out and open the door to get out, i like to get out bc its difficult to get my wallet out in the car. i give the officer my ins. and license and he says the reason why he stopped me was bc there were complaints of me driving recklessly around the loop. he asks if i knew how fast i was going and im like no my speedometer cable is broken bc i ran over a dead deer and i havent been able to find a cable yet. i knew i was going about 75 or 80 but didnt really want to tell him that. anyway he goes back to his car to check my stuff out and i sit back in my car. he comes back to the car and when i look out i see that there is another cruiser next to his and diagonal to mine. then i look on the other side and there is another cruiser, this makes 3 in all. they start griping at me and im telling them that i wasnt driving recklessly then they go to have a little talk. they talk for a minute and come back and tell me that they cant give me a ticket for this, so im thinking great theyre just going to gripe at me and thatll be it. no, right after they say that they cant ticket me for it they tell me that its a class b misdemeanor and that they can take me to jail for it. they tell me that one of the people who called said that i was going over 100mph, and i say theres no way i was going that fast, i may have been going 75 at the most. they go back to talk a little more and let me know that they are trying to get back in touch with one of the witnesses to see if they want to press charges. so im waiting in the car thinking oh great theyre gonna arrest me. one of the officers comes back over and lets me know that i wont be arrested but then she starts giving me the speech about being careful and that kind of stuff. i say ok and keep saying that i didnt think i was driving recklessly but i was speeding a little. the woman officer tells me if she pulls sees or hears of me speeding she will personally press charges and take me to court, i say ok, trying to be nice since im still kinda in their hands.



the place i was going was the UPS store, ive been working there for the holidays since im not in school. the cops saw my work shirt and asked if i was a ups driver and i said no. then, since my shirt said "the UPS store" they ask which store i worked at, keep in mind this is taking place right in front of the store where i work. i just turn my head and look at the store and the sign and say "umm, this one," i couldnt help but be a little sarcastic since they asked such a dumb question.



right after i saw that there were 3 cops there my gf drove up bc she had some packages to ship, so she got to see the whole thing. not that she cares bc she knows how i drive and that i never do anything unsafe or outdrive what im driving, unless you think moderate speeding in thin traffic is unsafe.



basically i got nothing bc they hadnt clocked me speeding and they couldnt get back to the witness.



sorry that was so long

i'm pretty sure the 'whitness' can't even press charges, well in Canada they can't at least the officer has to whitness it, and if they say they want to charge you charge them for talking on their cell while driving

yeah, the only way you could get a ticket is if one of the officers saw you doing it, unless it was a felony, then it can go off of witnesses.

there were 2 she cops. one was kinda short, a little plump, and a little no. the other one was a kinda tall, a little butch, and her neck was tan while her head was not, this was the one that was griping at me, the other was just pretty nice and didnt really seem to know what was going on



oh i did get pulled over the other day by a pretty hot she cop, hwy patrol actually. it was dark and she asked what year the car was, i said 89 and she said yeah i thought they switched to the round tail lights in the late 80s early 90s, so that was pretty cool. i was going 10 over and i got a warning, she was the coolest cop ever.

'the witness' carries a radar gun in their car? or was driving 98 and was pissed that you passed them?
