It's interesting that I get stopped a lot less now that I'm an old guy. I still drive - um - assertively but the cops no longer seem to notice. That's OK with me. Maybe it's like discount movie tickets - a benefit of old age?

That sucks, and for you other guys out there, its been a long time since I've been pulled over, just over a year and a half since my last ticket, heck, my license will be clean come October. Layed down about a 30 footer in my Olds on Sunday, Auburn Posi works just fine.

Attitude has alot to do with whether you get a ticket or the book thrown at you..
Act guilty and most likely the ticket book comes out..
In your case, I would play innocent, polite and when he says I was speeding.. Merely state the speedo must be off with your "new" tires..
But do not be stupid or act like you think the cop is stupid, even if he is...
Some cops just LOVE to write shit up and jack stuff up..
The town I live in had a cop who was ALWAYS pulling me over.. Never able to cite me.. He's dead now, natural caused at 38 years old.. I think KARMA kicked his ass!

the freedom here, I used to have complaints about.
Today 70mph on a secondary road may have a wave hello by an officer as you go by.
power certainly is more expected today.

Well, I guess that is a government issued period of upgrading Funny, but sucks, but still funny.

a lot of times when they yank your license here, they'll let you have a work permit. Do they offer that? Man, no cruising in the springtime would bite.

they don't, especially if you ask them "where's the donuts" and when they reply in the negative, say "so what are you good for?"
