He asked for the usual documentation which I gave him. He asked where I lived and where I was going. Told him LA - SF.
Then we had the following conversation:
Him: You know, you are the slowest person I have pulled over today. I got you at 90.
Me: I am sorry.
Him: That's okay (as he handed my papers back), just slow it down.
Me. Okay.
Him: What does your license plate mean anyway?
I told him and we parted ways. No muss, no fuss, no ticket.

I got pulled over last week for doing 80 in a 65.....
cop: you know how fast you were doing?
me: i'd say roughly 80
cop: wow you hit it right on the dot
me: yea well i saw you but i figured you were off duty
cop: laugh
me: yup, look like an asshole now huh?
cop: your lucky i just wrote my last ticket an hour ago...& dont feel like going in the trunk
now...would this courtesy have been extended to me when i was a teenager? hell na
cops treat older white guys great....28 & up? you're fine...if you're not an asshole
its the minorities & teenagers that take the "rage" from most cops....& its fucked up, we both know it
