    Passed a motorcycle cop, speed gun deployed, on the artery this morning. I am sure I was going 9+ over the limit, probably 12+.

    If I am not his target, who is?

    Anyway, I guess I should help give closure to this thread.

    I will not drive past four fucking speed trap lights on my way to work (less than 5 miles)

    I will not drive past schools.

    I do have a couple of artery routes, and will use those going forward.

    Still triggered you think they are speed traps. They have one for almost a year now i25 by loveland set for 55, people still drive by doing 80 all day.

    The speed trap is trying to avoid them and putting yourself in the ?artery? where they are actually running speed traps...

    It's a random luck of the draw. They look for the weak one in the herd, to go after. If it's rush hour, they gauge their potential for getting in to traffic, as well as catching the offender. Compared to amount of traffic (as we know) would hit their brakes cause... COP!



    Also depends how much over one is going. . Bottom line is. Once you're on their radar, they're coming.

    Just because you think they are out to get you, doesent mean they arent.

    NOTHING can travel faster on 2, or 4 wheels, than a police radio. .




    On a side note i "heard" years ago (before that pesky cell phone) some riders on 2 wheels would have a cut off switch, for their brake lights
