I do 80 in a 65 all the time, but I wouldn't write a ticket for that anyway, I wait until you are 20 over at least.

And I agree that police should be held to higher standard, our word should be beyond reproach, because sometimes that's all it takes to take someone's freedom away. I also agree that there are some bad cops out there, I just disagree with the number of them. I have made it 15 years in 2 states, and I have never seen a "bad cop". I have seen some I thought were better than others, some were more professional, some were smarter. The vast majority go out and try to do the best job they can day in and day out.
