Had a very similar situation on I-90 - 87 in a 65 coming back from Erie PA. I signaled, moved over to the left lane to get around slower moving traffic, signaled to go back into the right lane, and just as I did, BAM. Was passing by a speed trap with a Trooper sitting on top of a little knoll. I saw him start to back out, figured he was coming after me, so I pulled over and waited. He came up to the window, and I had all my info ready to go with the truck off, and hands in plain sight. Long story short - he came back, handed me my info and we played the seat belt game (I wasn’t as quick to pick up on it at first, because I ALWAYS wear one). ---

I have been saved by tint before. I also had a sheriff give me a ticket for 58 in a 45. Came over a hill saw him flip the lights and pulled over before he turned around. Come court time he was in the room when I talked to the DA. Actually said because I was polite and honest he told the DA to drop the ticket. Being polite and honest has worked at least 80% of the time for me. ---

Having an attitude right from the get go and being rude can only make things worse and extend the whole process. ---

I see how tint can help out in this situation. Be careful in the city though I got pulled over by the same cop twice threatening to give me a $600 ticket. I posted a thread on it awhile back and no one on here could confirm or deny it. I still roll my windows down whenever I’m in that area and see a cop. lol ---
