wow ,I step away from my computer for a couple days and look what I missed .

Rob , let me try to answer your question.

Troopers like to give tickets , thats all they know how to do . If you put a Trooper in a section 8 apartment complex on a weekend evening they would have to shoot their way out because they do not know how to interact with people other then .... Sir can I see your license and insurance ? but it's not their fault ....... they put something in the water while their in the academy......

So if you are having a problem with the troopers coming up on your bumper and hanging out , you are prob. driving a little on the aggresive side. He first getting your plate number and then looking for the PC for the stop or the continued aggresive driving . My suggestion is that if you can cheange lanes , do. If you are already in the slow lane , go ahead and pull over. He will stop behind ...... When he asks what the problem is be honest and tell him that he was too close to your rear end and you did not think he was operating in a safe manor. Remember to speak clearly and be polite because you are on tape if he gives you a citation for what ever the reason given you can go to his post and talk it over with his supervisor. There are bad apples out there , in all jobs.

Biggin ,

I understand that you were upset because the officer sped past your house , however, keep in mind the officer could have been responding to a call . We do not always run lights and siren and are allowed to safely travel over the speed limit if warranted , but we are still held at fault if we are running hot and have an accident. I have had to put Officers at fault many times during investigations. Now , the other side of that would be that the officer was not responding to a call and was just speeding through the hood at twice the speed limit , he would be in the wrong. But , calling the Chief of police and thinking the officer is going to get in trouble is just wasting yours and the Chiefs time unless you have a calibrated radar gun and a video of the cruiser passing your home...... Oh , and that video has to be time stamped...... In a nut shell , you have to prove what the speed was and at what time and date or the most the officer is going to get is questioned and or cautioned about his driving habits.
