1. The prevailing speed limit on the road was 45, but apparently there was a brief 30mph zone that escaped my notice.
2. My V1 was active, but I have my Stealth One set to mute warnings below 44mph... which makes me wonder if the alleged "46mph" reading is even accurate.
His radar reading was taken while he was heading toward me from the opposite direction, and there was a car in front of me that was traveling at about the same speed, but he did a U-turn and went for me!
Fortunately the cop was reasonable enough to give me a "Failure to Obey Posted Speed Limit Sign" ticket instead of a "Speeding Ticket", so the cost is less, and no points.
Still pisses me off though...  |
Ha! That's nothing - I was doing 83 in a 55 on Friday, and walked away with a written warning!
