Guess there was a plane doing speed checks. Mustang was pulled over too. Not sure what happened to him. Happy 4th of July everyone. My wife is not happy so today will be a long one for me.
D'oh! Definitely the wrong day to be racing. Here in AL all agencies are hot and heavy on the streets looking for DUI, speeders, illegal aliens, etc.
If you were "clocked" by aircraft, they were probably using "VASCAR" to determine your speed. In some jurisdictions, that's actually pretty easy to beat in court. Radar or LIDAR, that's another question.
I've found the best way to avoid a ticket is to keep my DL in my wallet right next to my badge
