Just curious...what was his name?

Ahem.
But I'm much older, wiser and laid back these days.
ETA: I don't offer this as authoritative advice or anything like that; it's merely a related anecdote from my past.
True, but then BOTH officers have to Show up in court, so they don't normally do it.
PLEASE get the officers business card and file a complaint ! There is way too muchof this going on. Two weeks ago I was pulled over on the toll road by the Airport police (by Dulles Airport) for doing 40 in a 55. Ihad just gotten on the toll road from Herndon and had to stop to pay the toll, thus I was not upto normaltravel speed. The cop was a jerk, spent considerable time shining his light through the windows of the cargo van looking for something to nail me on. People wonder why I can't stand cops. It isn't even illegal to be driving 40 unless a minimum speed is posted. I have filed a formal compliant with internal affairs. The Lt. that I talked with seemed not surprised when I told him the officers name.
