ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! Actually, I have to admit: that's something a Jersey cop might well do. (I grew up there.)
nope not a joke. At first I pretended not to hear him so that he would have to repeat himself. And then I just shot him an F'u smile as it was a beatuiful day, I was driving the limit and this trooper couldn't do squat. Good thing he wasn't in front of me ....he would have dinged me for the no front plate! (haven't had one of those in 10 years). This was rather young looking trooper so he's probably fresh out of the statey academy..all gung ho and what not.
My buddy's dad gives me grief about having the detector but I explained to him in this car you're just a flahsing billboard to get police attention. Porsche or no Porsche nobody drives at the limit, they can pop you at any time.
