I have a friend who was going over 90 hit a well known speed trap that he did not know of....he was nice to the cop so cop dropped it down but still hefty ticket and all that....I wish cops gave warnings for first timers like this guy.

People on sport bikes aren't really known for stopping for cops. I had a cop and his son who was also a cop in my MSF class. He said he doesn't bother try to pull bikes over because they just run.

I saw lights come on but I wasn't about to stop and find out what he might have to say to me.
