Well me and the wife were heading down the interstate to a friends house and this guy in a dodge durango is taking up the left lane and holding up traffic, so i get a break in the traffic of course i stomp it and get around him. I guess the same time i did this we passed a cop, i didn't see him, well the cop got me for doing 83 in a 65(reckless driving)STUPID ME< STUPID ME. Me and the wife were already having a disagreement so this added on great. So i think i'll have a clear record until i'm 30. It's just funny how i spend the majority driving extremely conservative because of this and all it takes is 10 sec's passing someone.

Yeah it seems like the troopers target muscle cars especially stangs. It is the end of the month and he does have quota to maintain. If it was any other time he might have let you go. Sorry to hear about your misfortune.

Cops don't have quotas. They can write as many as they want.

LOL. I just heard that yesterday. "But do you have a chain steering wheel?"

I also just get a look from cops. Maybe because my exhaust is pretty quiet. They seem to mostly go after rice rockets and fox body stangs. Probably because just about every fox around here has flows and no cats. In cali, thats a crime punishable by death.

Well they dont have actual "quotas". However, they are required to write so many tickets or they will get a "talking" to by their supervisor.
