Default Cool *** cop in Houston...

6:00 pm earlier this evening and I'm hauling *** downtown (Milam st) doing about 65 on a 35. Way outta pocket trying to get home. So he clocks me as he was standing on the sidewalk holding the rdr gun, his car was parked around the corner. Of coarse he motions me to pull over and I comply. Being I hold a class A cdl I cannot have a lot of tickets. I was very respectful and told him from the get go I know I was well above the speed limit while handing him my dl and ins. He walks over to his car runs my dl and comes back telling me to just slow down and be careful. He said he didn't want to jeapordize my career. Whew, it goes without saying I thanked him and was on my way driving like grandma the rest of the way home. Just thought I'd share that on here b/c with all the talk last week about profiling and dick head cops etc. Btw he was white and I'm black/hispainc.

Cops are like any other profession. There are good ones and then there are some shitty ones.

http://www.beltronics.com/rx65.html

Can be found on Ebay for reasonably cheap.

If you drive out of state, you might want to check the laws of other states you'll be in. They are illegal in some states. If thats the case, and you want to use it anyway, this one might be better: http://www.beltronics.com/sti.html

Supposedly it defeats the Spectre radar detector, detector. Something cops use in states where radar detectors are illegal, to catch you.
