Default You were going pretty fast....

You were going pretty fast....did you know you were speeding?

Yessir I knew. If I didn't know, you should give me a ticket for "driving without due care and attention".

Ten minutes later............

By the way you gave me your Corvette registration, but I ran the Jeep and it's all good. I knocked the ticket down a bit for you, have a safe day.


Sherriff on Hwy 21 Saturday..somewhere south of New Serepta. Good guy..and I did deserve the ticket. Dam road should be 110 anyway......, which still wouldn't have saved me from the ticket.

Man those low profile roof lights are tough to see on top of the cars when they come over a hill towards you.

Should have been like every other Alberta driver and ignored the lights and have him follow you for a about 10 miles.....oh yeah...that did not work well for the dentist in Camrose.

Should have locked you up!! Sorry couldn't resist.

I received a photo in the mail last week, from ft sask. Me cruising through a light a bit fast on my Harley.

I was okay with it.... the next day how ever I got a second one, from the same day on the henday!!

Really hard not to pull that throttle back on a nice sunny day.

I don't know how you Harley guys do it, you are amazing! You ride the only machine made by man that creates it's own oil slick as it runs! Those gotta be some kinda high tech oil sucking nerf tires on Harleys!

Just wait till you start running into slick tops! A lot of places are starting to run the lights inside the vehicle at the top of the windshield, side windows and rear window etc...

radar detector/jammers work wonders.

going fishing on friday i came over a hill and got a blip on it so i slowed down, came over the next hill and a rcmp was coming the other way.

then on the way home i got another strong signal, but i wasnt speeding, got to the top of the hill and an undercover CPS was shooting radar right as you came up the hill. sneaky.

usually i have a good 10 seconds to slow down before they actually target my car.

I was over... toooo far over to be reasonable. I don't blame him for giving me a ticket. I earned it.

Same for myself on the weekend, deserved it for sure. First one in 4 years and I never speed through this area ever, until this weekend. RC asked me if I was hunting as he saw the shells in the front seat, said "yup", he cut my ticket in half for some reason and said, "good luck on the hunt". Never asked about the guns or anything. Good guy.
