He figures if you are going more than 20 over then he shouldn't have to hear "I can't believe you wrote me a ticket for only going XXX over the limit". He says even if he only gets the 20+ over the limit there are plenty of tickets to write... he doesn't have to waste his time on guys like you only doing 9 over.
Not to mention wasting my time. In my case I had to pay $90.00 to listen to Doogie's rant. But since I am "a rich guy with a fancy car", I guess I got off easy.
