In cases like that i always pull over instantly, and have even had a few cops fly past me on the side of the road not realizing i pulled over for them! Quote Selected

I was running late to work and was stuck behind a semi in the slow lane. I floored it to get around him, right as I was passing the semi, I saw a cop hidding under the overpass.He asked me why I was going so fast, so I told him I was only intenting to pass the semi and I was carpooling with 3 guys (a 50+ mile commute), and that I had been driving this same road everyday for 6 months and I got impatient.

So you actually pull over before you have to, and that seems to help avoid a ticket? I always keep my head facing straight forward, drive real careful, and pray that the flashing lights don't come on!!! Quote from: TOM Renzo;410581Just a silly question!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd pull over and wait for him, even if he had to turn around. Was just common sense. Quote Selected
