And assuming you don't have a radio in your vehicle, you have no idea why a cop is speeding...

If your a traffic cop, **** you, nagger.

Yep, modified exhaust draws attention. Cops will run up on you if they think your going to take off.
If you going around a corner in the city at 33mph. Uh, they think that's going to fast around the corner.
I think that is the two things she might have saw. I understand your thought on this.
However, if it was traffic time and you weren't using care she might have been justified in ticketing for unsafe driving.
Been there, done that ... it sucks.

Actually Ive been pulled over a few times. However the wierd thing is it was alwayst the same cop. and he was nice. I guess Cops in Phoenix are wost than those in Glendale Az. Although I do admit i hate the three wheeled open vehicles they drive down in phoenix. Everytime ive been down there and I see one of those things for some reason it just pisses me off to see them.

Oh, here's another guy with a police radio in his car (which by the way is illegal). Ok people, this is how the speeding thing works. Police don't have to run "cherries and berries" when on a non-emergency call. For instance if there is an accident where the roadway is blocked but no injuries or a verbal domestic we are allowed to speed at a reasonable level to get there quickly but without compromising the public's safety. On the other hand, if the accident involves injury or the domestic is physical, that when we run "hot." Don't get me wrong, police do speed without cause (I've been guilty myself), but I dare say, that most of us "Z owners" are chonic speeders (not wrecklessly mind you). If you have a problem with a cop speeding, take down the number of his car, call dispatch and complain (it happens all the time). You don't have to identify yourself and trust me, he'll probably get in a bit of trouble...(been there done that).

I agree, if that was the case, she was an ***. But as someone said earlier, there are two sides to every story. Keep in mide we often see you before you see us. I can tell you how many times I've clocked people going well above the speed limit, and when they recognize I'm around, they do the whole "slowing down to the speed limit routine." Pulling someone over for 35/30? That IS ridiculous, dude if I did that, I'd be laughed out out of the department...

I never have trouble with them. Sometimes get a nod of the head or a short wave. Knock on wood here too!

One time this State Trooper kept following me for long time and I was going at the speed limit. I thought he was looking for a reason to pull me over so I was extremely careful. So he started changing lanes and driving around me until we got to a red light where he stopped next to me and roll his window down. I'm like, oh $hit, he is going to pull me over for tinted windows. Surprise surprise.... he complimented my car and started telling me how he keeps arguing with his wife to put nice wheels on her G35 and she doesn't let him. The light turned green and I pointed at it to let him know we gotta go but he didn't care and we stood there laughing for another 10 seconds.

Two of my neighbors are NC State Troopers. When I got the Z, they each came over to admire it.

Both of them volunteered to test drive to see if it really hits 160. I told them I had already done the test. They laughed.

I can't say I have found any hating cops in my area since I got mine 1 1/2 years ago, but I do notice they look at me to make sure I am not doing anything wrong...I'm sure they do that to all sports cars though. I gotta say, even the guy that gave me my 66 in a 45 this morning didn't seem to be a hater, but c'mon, 66 in a 45 is enough to get any car pulled over. He did make a comment that he liked the car though, so if there was hate he was hiding it well.

Later.

I'll be there homey. I got in late from Boston on Monday.

Dude, the lady cop lived in the crossings. She pulled into a neighborhood after flying by me. I'm sure she took it personal that I was moving quick to get across the intersection. There was a car coming so I took off to turn left. I literally was going 33MPH cuz I looked. I have 4 different Speedometes in the car. Digital, Analog, GPS Digital, and GPS Analog. I just laughed because I could'nt believe that she went through the trouble to haul *** to tell me to slow down.

Oh and she wasn't that cute. If she was I probably would've started a convo. I've gotten lucky and been pulled over by a couple of cuties. We get to talking about the military and police work and before I know it, the ticket is gone.

Oh and fellas. About my statement that Cops hate Z's. I run with a large group of Z's. We have local hangouts twice a week. Usually, once a week someone is complaining that they got a ticket. Sooooo, I'd assume that cops (At least in Miami) don't like Z's and pull them over more so than other cars. But that is an opinion. Opinions are only that. Don't read into my statements. I write about this foolheartedly.

As I pulled up to him to tell him to slow down, he laughs. So of course, I'm gonna pull him over, you never disrespect an officer. Maybe I'll taze him if he laughs again. I check his tag and he has the blue line. His daddy must be a uniform. Nice military ID, keep the speed down a-hole. I let him go only because he was Army. On the way out, "I'll show you what fast is!".Ha! Nobody disrespects officer Puta!
What day was it? Maybe it was the 28th "day of the month" for her
