100 in a 45 speeding

[Retired cop]

If he was tailgating you use the I was in fear of my safety and was trying to get away defense. It was an unmarked unit so you did not know he was a LEO. Also bring up the fact that you have a clean driving history. Be courteous and wear a dress suit. Appearance goes a long way in court. As for calling 911 point out that the danger was immenint and you feared the police response time would not be fast enough to ensure your safety. Use the word safety a lot !! I went to traffic court regularly for 20 years this defense often works.

Thanks or the input.
I mentioned the same exact thing you just said earlier here.
It's good to know I'm not alone in that theory.
We actually taught that in some drivers classes because the issue was so frequently brought up.

Yea, I'd like to know how it ended up as well?

I can check, but I think I'll wait a bit for the follow up.

Oh, and Retired Cop....aboard

Maybe the fact that we haven't heard from him is a bad sign.

Maybe he's learning to pronounce "Bubba" in multiple dialects?
