You can hide the radar from clear view.

Nicely told story!!!! Lucky to get off!

I have crawled by two speed traps in the last two days since I've been driving our X5, not my E90....the big rig doesn't tempt me to speed like my 325!!

I had a similar situation, I was on my way home after having a meal with my wife when abruptly i was pulled over by my neighborhood cop for speeding ( Not Really, 55 on a 50 ). When he realized who i was ( a local ) he apologized and thanked me for contributing to the neighborhood. ( I had the 740il at the time!) WTF?

Glad you skated, Laura! Hard to go slow sometimes, ain't it?

Good job Laura. I don't think I have ever talked my way out of a ticket. Had to buy my way out each time!

I didn't even try. Maybe it was the "Yes Sir, No Sir" and NOT giving him some bullshit

NO such luck over here. If your caught speeding your done.

The trick is not to get caught which ain't easy with all the bloody speed cameras then the white van cameras hopefully after today though the Gatso Camera's could be a thing of the past.
