It's a discretion thing really. I know one trooper that lives in your area Rich, that would write his own mother a ticket, really. And another that just doesn't write speeding tickets. He told me, "I don't write speeding tickets, I speed". It's up to the individual officer and what their agency makes them do/allows them to do. I wrote very few speeding tickets, a lot of warnings, but few actual speeding tickets. 92 in a 55, yeah, you get a ticket. 65-70, probably not. Every officer has there own pet peeves but the bottom line is we all have our faults, none of us are perfect. Yes, I speed, but not in a dangerous manner. In other words like on a highway with no other vehicles and no pedestrians. And, no, I couldn't tell you how fast my patrol car could go. Unlike some other officers I know.
