IS IT JUST WORTH IT!!

First to answer beestroyer's question...technically you can't be booked for travelling behind a police car...one way police use to determine a vehicle's speed is to maintain an even distance..usually from behind and get a reading from the police car's calibrated digital speedo..there USED TO be the method of doing the same thing from the front, but that pratice was officially ceased by the Powers That Be, back in about 1997, after too many lost court cases...it's actually against Force policy to do this now...doesn't mean you won't be stopped by a copper using this method...he may even try to bluff you into a ticket, but the maintain even distance method should only be used by police travelling behind you... And GroundRash...speak to any toggie (TMU officer) they'll agree (off the record) that cameras have taken a lot of the "fun" out of doing highway work...I guess you could call it a game...like a battle of wits..the copper with the radar (now laser) trying to find a half decent hiding spot in order to catch speeders, but if you kept your eyes open, you usually saw them..now..with camera cars..using anything from Magnas to RAV 4's to Hyundai Santa Fe 4wd's a lot of that has gone...(sigh..) And yes I picked my 'Busa up yesterday...and YES it's mighty hard to ride at the speed limit...bloody hell...I'm hooked... To the last I will grapple with thee; from Hell's heart I stab at thee; for Hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee.
