What would be a ligitimate reason to get to the head of traffic and then slow down to about the speed of traffic? The legitimate reason would be to catch the big bad criminal who was going 40 in a 25, on a road in which everyone goes at least 30, many go as fast as 45 on it.
And Nowthen I'm not sure who you're comments were dirrected at but personal insults aren't tolerated on this board.
I don't want cops not enforcing good laws, and in fact speed laws aren't really a bad thing, they are just too low and it gives cops an easy excuse to pull someone over and dick around with them, and these people are usually not bad people, and imo shouldn't have to pay a fine of which is a whole one of my paychecks and could hurt more then you guys might know.
One time I was driving home at 2 or 3am and I see a cop, so I slow down to about 30 in a 25, there was no point in trying to go 25 because it would be obvious I slammed my breaks to avoid being pulled over, so the cop follows me and pulls me over. He says he pulled me over because the light on my back lisence plate was out. He checks my lisence, comes back and tells me I'm free to go, doesn't even tell me to fix the light. It's little things like that which piss me off. Sure I didn't get in any trouble, but I don't want to have to deal with police who see a teenaged kid and assume he's probably drunk, so he just comes up with some bullshit reason to pull me over and check up on me.
