From the description it sounds like he didn't have enough to give you a ticket "reasonable, prudent"???? so he probably figured he would check the car out and give you a mild heart attack while he was at it.

Well it worked.
It took him at least two miles to catch me and he never had radar... at least nothing my Passport detected.
He said that when I made a right on red, I did not yield to him and that caused him to try to catch up to me, but I hit the highway and took off. He said in his 15 years of prowling that area, he had never seen anything like it.
He was very concerned about ice on the roads and my tires. He was very smart and he was, of course, right.
It was a real eye opener. I know that I got a break and I have taped this ticket to my visor, so I don't forget. My insurance company doesn't really have a since of humor about crap like this.

Bahahahhaha, dude, Cops will pull you over 9 times out of 10 when you don't show them respect. Got my first warning a few years back when I pulled out in front of a Cop by a good 200 feet at least, and quickly made it up to the speed limit. According to him I was supposed to wait till he passed. I swear, I try to like Cops for what they do, but damn if they don't make it hard some times.
