Speed limit in Florida is 70 even though most people drive at 80 to 90

This. Engine brake if you must, brake lights turn you into a target. They know you know you did something wrong.
>doing 75 in a 55
>cop passes me
>don't slow down
>he turns around and stops me
>did you know how fast you were going etc etc
>claim my car doesn't have cruise control and I was kind of zoning out so I didn't realize my speed had increased
>he literally says "well you didn't even slow down after I passed so I wondered what was up"
>lets me off with a warning to pay attention and drive safe

>radar detectors work like a time machine
Idiot. If they caught you speeding, the brake lights are literally irrelevant.

Under a certain point, all that matters is the cop's attitude towards you. If you seem genuinely innocent and apologetic he might choose not to ruin your month with a speeding ticket. Brake lights admit to him immediately you knew you were wrong and sped anyway, and the chance of him letting you off is now far less.

ORRRR they tell the cop, "I didn't realize I was speeding until I passed a fucking cop and looked at my speedo."

T. A cop.

Your butthurt doesn't change the fact it worked for me. I'm not lying, the greentext happened.
>t. a cop
So the one I encountered was a more considerate person than you I guess. Stay mad you fucking powertripping highschool dropout.

it isn't though

Found the problem

>drive to/from home in the middle of the night cause it's a 7 hour drive
>cruise always set 5-10 over limit
>usually pass 3 patrol cars
>never slow down
>never been stopped

Alternatively,

>everyone going 5 over the limit
>cop gets into traffic
>everyone slows to a crawl
>keep going 5 over
>end up maintaining constant distance with cop cause they're going over, too

I guess cops have better things to do than to pull people over for minor speeding, assuming you don't drive like an idiot.

I never slow down beyond engine braking.
Only been pulled over twice and neither was on the highway where I go 90 mph+.
May be because I live in the midwest but never had any trouble.

Even when I got pulled over one was a stern warning and the other was the cop just wanting to confirm he saw a VW Beetle go 0-60 in 6 seconds.

>be from out of state
>traveling just 5 above the speed limit
>everyone is still passing
>I'm the only one that gets pulled over

They really only care about reckless driving and unlike many believe that doesn't include obscene speeding.

It has a lot more to do with if you are changing lanes randomly and such.

He's right you're dumb as dirt.

I know this feel all too well, and I'm also in Florida.

>Heading to a relatives on an almost empty road
>cop happens to be riding in front of me, we're both going 10-15 over the limit
>get closer to town
>every fucker that gets in front of us slows down
>cop ends up taking 10 minutes to slip through the now needlessly backed up traffic just to speed in front of them.

I hate florida, they just put a stop light on the road you could go down at 90+.

Is it a road that goes to Orlando when you get off 95?

>live in metro Atlanta
>drive an Accord
>smooth driving style

>cops never pay attention to me and goes after the Mustang/Ricer behind me

>Driving through some windy country roads at night
>Going about 85-90 speed limit is 55
>See car stopped at intersection coming up
>zoom past and see that it's a Sheriff
>he turns to get behind me
>take my foot off the gas slow down to speed limit
>follows me to the next intersection where I turn right but he turns left

>later the same night driving on highway near my house
>See a car about half a mile down the road

>decide to see how much I can catch up to him in the the turn
>speed through it and then see him at the end of the last s
>get to about a 150ft of him before my lights reflect off of the Sheriff decals on the car
>Slow down to match his speed
>Realize he's going about 10 below so speed up to pass him so he doesn't get suspicious
>Get off the highway at the next chance
>He stays on
>Decide to go home for the night and not push my luck

>speeding
>passed by cop going faster than you
>get pulled over for speeding

YOU HAVE BEEN WRONGED BY THE STATE
TICKET OR NOT, THEY OWE YOU A GOOD FIGHT FOR YOUR HONOR

I used to live in hell Paso and cops would for some fucking reason be doing five or ten under on the freeway and everyone else would slow down to not pass them because they are stupid illegals and don't want to get deported, while I would Scoot on by going 66 and they wouldn't even glance at me
