Nothing hanging ON my mirror, but, damn, IN my mirror today were flashing red and blue lights... again. My commute route takes me along a long stretch of highway that is also the commute route for some cop. He lives OUT of his jurisdiction, and I'm pretty sure he won't cite me... he probably COULD, but it would be a pain in the tail for him, and it probably wouldn't be "time on the clock."

A couple of months ago, he pulled me over in the Camaro... said that he "couldn't catch up to me," while he was "doing over 85 MPH." Total crock, as, while I had indeed exceeded the 55MPH speed limit by 15MPH (70MPH, to save you the need to bust out your Casio calculator watch!). He read me the riot act, then went on his way.

Today, when I merged onto the highway, I saw him behind me (I should mention that a couple of times since the LAST time, when I see him back there, I just pull off somewhere, let him get on past me... not interested in stressing out the whole drive, wondering what he's gonna do). So, in an effort to avoid being hassled by the man, I kept a vigilant eye on the speedometer, and crawled along at the speed limit, ever mindful of his Big Brother presence.

But, damn, sure enough... red and blue party lights lit up my mirror. This time, he "clocked me" at 77MPH.

Funny thing is, I was in a different car today... he did not recognize me, and we do not have any personal beefs between us... don't know each other at all, other than me knowing his penchant for apparently enjoying his red and blues. Before anybody cries foul, that maybe my speedometer is off, no, in the Camaro, I'm still running stock tires, AND I'm kind of a compusive speedometer checker... the thing is dead on. The car I was in today is a 2012 Maxima, stock tires. Sure, I have not calibrated the speedometer on this rental, but it is difficult for me to buy that when my speedometer says 55MPH, that I'm actually sailing through space at a speed 77MPH different from the asphalt's speed.

Again, no citations... not quite sure of this dude's angle, other than maybe just getting a kick out of chewing people out... a highway hero, in that respect. I'll take it, not like a man, exactly, but like I should in order to avoid a citation (non- confrontational, meek, apologetic, all that stuff that sacrifices pride and self- respect, but saves on insurance rates).

Just bugged... and I think I'll just take a different route to work from now on, so that my rear view mirror doesn't light up like that anymore.
Internet tuff guy here. I would tell him about this and let him know he can be ticketed for speeding and wreckless driving.

I Rosery. I know it's illegal to hang anything in the state of California but who is going to pull you over for having a rosery? My cross will stay on there and if a cop pulls me over for having it...he's going to hell.

It's not always there. Mainly for car shows.

The light reflects off the disco ball...

..and blinds me!

That FHP officer was a idiot im not a cop lover or anything but she really screwed up there not saying that the other cop was right speeding and driving like that....Most FHP officer's are all-way's alone on the high way and when ever they get into a confrontation the first one's to come to there aid was metro or a other city police department now there getting beat to shit on Florida's highway because no one want's to help there department at all....That officer should be fired.
