It wasn't forced, it was requested.
So, when you're driving down the highway and suddenly notice a police car in your rear view mirror, are you more likely to be filled with the warm and fuzzies or to suddenly feel a little apprehensive?


If you have done nothing wrong why would it bother you. Only a guilty conscience would be bothered by IMHO. Hell, if they are going below the posted limit in good road conditions I will pass them where it is safe to do so. They ain't your enemy, they are just folks doing a job they are hired to do, kinda like teachers, firemen, EMS, Etc.


Exactly!

I look at the spedometer because I know I like to push the legal limits! grin

If I get caught, it's my fault, not theirs!


That's why we run unmarked cars, it doesn't make people nervous till the blues come on, no preliminary jitters of LE being in the rearview mirror. grin
