I KNOW if I was about 30+ years younger, I would have been on the side of the road looking at a set of flashing lights in the mirror.

6 years ago I got pulled over in my Z4 roadster. My cap covered my graying hair. As the officer walked up to my window announcing "drivers license and registration" he took one look at me and said, "...never mind, just wanted to let you know that according to my "FLR" I had you doing 37 in a 35 zone. You want to be more careful in the future. BTW, nice car." Then he walked around the car, nodded and got back in the patrol car and drove off. LOL
Good lord, 37 in A 35?! You crazy SOB.
