trust me Cody, even the worst of them don't think about "if you are rich or not", just doesn't happen. They may look at the car as unique after the approach, and we see sports cars everyday. Look at this way, it is a job. If we are on traffic duty, then our objective for the day is to look for traffic infractions. Disregarding stop signs, unsafe lane movement, tailgating, and yes, speeding. What you and others may think is safe, and it is something you have gotten into a habit of doing all the time, just might not be. Like rolling thru the stop sign because you don't see anyone coming. You might get away with it a thousands times until that one blind spot in your car gets you hit...People want to make cops out to be something special, whether that is good or bad, I don't know...I put my pants on just like you...and I use to remind young recruits of that when they started to get a little cocky with the public....
