  • That’s being a little purposely obtuse as that is obviously putting other drivers in danger. I mean that I shouldn’t have to worry about being pulled over if the radar gun says I’m driving the speed limit, obeying traffic laws, and driving a vehicle that is road legal and well maintained.

    Yet an officer absolutely can pull me over and ruin my day and waste my time and money making me go to court over absolutely nothing and the absolute worst that can happen to them is a slap on the wrist if anything.



  • Where I’m from an officer can always pull you over for “reckless driving” or “impeding traffic”. The argument can literally be made that you’re driving dangerously no matter how fast you go. These days I just stick to the literal posted speed (as long as road conditions and traffic allow) and I’ll let a lawyer defend me from any citations. I stay in the slow lane and am constantly getting passed but I’ll be damned before I get another ticket for going 6 over.
