I wish I would have had video of it…the cop was pretty cool about it too. They must have clocked me around the Hazelet Street exit because a cop was up on the veterans bridge waiting for me and he waved me over to the side. ---

Granted, I know they pulled you for being alone in the HOV lane…but how the fuck did they ticket you for “92 MPH”. You have me worried now. Doing closer to the speed limit would seriously add to my commute time and I don’t want to have to do this. ---

Hence why I asked it was a statie, and was kind of confused as I’ve personally never seen a state cop speedtrap in city limit. I have seen cops sitting in the HOV lanes. I cant remember if they were state or not… but they do sit in the shoulder and wait. That is they are always sitting around a bend of some sort. So when you see them, its too late. I hate people who ride the HOV lane alone. Its not funny. Why not just man up and carpool with someone? You have GOT to know atleast ONE person heading into town. ---

I guess I’ll be more cautious…I really couldn’t see anywhere on 279 for cops to sit that weren’t in plain view. I’ll pay more attention on the way home tonight. ---

It was state police, and I had to pay the fine at the magistrates office in the Northside on East Ohio Street, fine was a little over $700, this was back in 2002. I was on the way to work in the morning and was running late so I jumped on the HOV to avoid traffic. I was working at UPMC at the time. Like I said, I was doing 92, i got up to where the road splits to cross the veterans bridge, and when I got up there there was a cop in the middle of the road waving me off to the side. Im guessing that they were sitting on one of those overpasses on 279 and clocked me, or he lied and made up a speed…who the fuck knows, i didn’t bother to fight it. ---

I’m thinking he lied about 92 MPH…heh. You wouldn’t have much of a leg to stand on being that he caught you alone on the HOV lane. Maybe I’ll do 85 instead of 95 on the way home tonight. Maybe. ---

Never claimed to be a hardass… just sharing stories, it was a wide open stretch of road, and I wasn’t driving recklessly or I doubt I woulda walked away without a ticket. I’ve never caused anyone on the road to get hurt, and With the exception of the ticket in Wyoming and one in '97 all my points were accumulated between '91 and '95… Show me someone who has made ALL the right decisions between 16 and 21… I’m not trying to be the fastest car on the road, nor a showboat but if you give me an open stretch of road and I’ll give it some gas… ---
