I'm just calling him a prick because of what happened after I got pulled over, but you're right; they were only doing their job and I can respect that. What bothers me is that EVERYONE at that time of night was speeding(12:15am) and my speed was barely above the other cars' speeds. There were times where it would take 30 seconds to a minute from the time I pulled up next to a car for me to pass it. And I'm peeved that he said I was going 89mph when my speedometer wasn't anywhere near 90. He said he clocked the other car and that I was pacing the other car. What he didn't acknowledge was the fact that maybe the other car passed me, then slowed down to pace me. If he had pulled me over and written down that I was going 82 or 83mph, I wouldn't be upset; after all, that's how fast I was going. In my only other speeding ticket, the cop said I was going 97 in a 65, which was true, but only wrote down 90 and I was grateful for that. In any case, if the fine is not crazy and I can take traffic school, then I'll probably go that route...the time I would need to spend to fight this is not worth the trouble or the amount I would be saving.

I definitely respect them and don't hate them. Part of me even thinks that he might have saved my life; who knows what would have happened later on if I was going that fast. God had him pull me over for a reason.
