Knock on my wooden head I have not been ticketed in many years.. I have been stopped and told it was too load but no ticket. I was behind a couple of kids who were hanging out the sun roof and yelling to each other car to car. Traffic was down to about 25MPH with them leading us in a posted 45. This was with 2 lanes on our side so no way to get around them until the road gained another lane. I turned into the new lane and jumped on it hard but only a short blast. The blue lights behind me within seconds of my performance reminded me it may not have been a good idea.

The cop was very stern but cool. He asked me to guess how many codes I just broke if he wanted to get creative. He then asked what my speed was and said I only got 1 chance to answer correctly. Told him I really did not know but knew it was over the posted 45 and maybe 60. He told me that was not close to the 75 he was thinking but no way I could have done 25 to 75 in that distance so would let me go because he could not prove 75, nobody would believe it and he smiled.
