At one point we hit some radar and I got down to a little over 70 and there is still a dweeb on my bumper about 20 feet back, followed by 3 more, all tailgating each other. The cop didn't even blink. In my book, it's a whole lot more dangerous than a little moderate speeding (15 over)
I've often gone by cops with people creeeping up my tailpipe. But they'd rather write tickets for big revenue offenses. Tailgating might be good for $50 to $75. Waiting for someone to blow thru a radar gun at 90 is worth a few hundred.
But yeah, to be a cop for a day or two and write some tickets would be fun. Then again, could you write up a guy in a SPG, VIggen or Aero doing 85? Maybe let him go if he has a Saabnet plate frame or window sticker. ;o)
