Nah it's not about that. It's about generating revenue for the county/parish and satisfying the politicians that get kickback from the insurance lobby.

The police cruiser caught him within 2 minutes and he was going 75. Pulled him over and began the citation process. How does a police cruiser driving to for 3-4 miles at 90+ mph (to catch him) How is that making the roads safer?
Did he get the guy? Was anyone hurt in that whole 3-4 minute span?
You are the guy who was pulled over, eh?

Why did you downplay your speed? No chance a trooper pulls you over for 5 over.

Because safety isn't the goal here. The quota is.

Area I live is notorious for cops giving speeding tickets. Knowing that, I drive in the right lane at posted speed limits . Tons of new folks have moved here and they’re constantly getting tickets.
A couple weeks ago I pull onto the highway behind an suv . We stay in the right lane were they have signs posted “slower traffic keep right” . Lots of traffic going to work in front ,behind and on the side of me. Speed limits fluctuate from 45-50-55-45 up and down hills , you have to ride your brakes or you’ll easily go over the speed limit.
So I’m behind this car going the speed limit Ann all of a sudden a local jerk comes out of nowhere and throws his lifts on , gives me a ticket for 20 over the limit .All he said was your the only one speeding. I’m fighting it . No way in hell was I going 65.in a 45 down Main Street. Bastard

I hate the frickers running radar on the huey p. They "hide" at the top of the hump in the bridge so as you come up to the crest bang they are there. I drive it twice a day and know not to go more than 5 over the 50 mph limit but 3 lanes of people slamming on their brakes on a semi blind hump is making the bridge safe.

You have a radar gun to know how fast he was going?
Vehicle A is going 75 and is 3-4 miles ahead of vehicle B. How fast does vehicle B have to go to catch vehicle A. Do you math bro?

I’m betting there’s a warrant outstanding.
