Thanks for the vote of confidence, Hoff.
One time I was speeding on the interstate, and suddenly saw a cop and he made a wierd face at me and I slammed on my brakes to slow down to the speed limit and got off the nearest exit, just incase he would try to go for me, and I looked to the left and there he was with his sirens on going down the interstate.At that time I did not know if he was looking for me or there must of been another speeder. Now I know not to go over the speed limit, because you never know where the cop is, unless your smart to have a radar detector in your car.
