The last time I got stopped I was heading south in NV on I-93 a 2 lane highway with the Porsche. There were 2x18 wheelers tucked up tight as we climbed a long grade and well, a downshift and full throttle application made short work of passing both. I got off the throttle and was gradually coasting as I crested the hill with a state trooper waiting just over the top. Oops.

He flashed, I pulled over, and I was still probably doing 90 in a 70 zone after winding down from the pass @ over 100 mph. I apologized for not paying careful attention to my speed, took my licks, and paid $180 to the state for 10 over although I am sure I was 20 over when tagged. My contribution to NV law enforcement and the 1st ticket in 10 years. I can't take this stuff personally as the old guy was just doing his job and he had me cold on radar. It could have been a lot worse.

Had a similar situation last year, rural TX and the speed limit went from 65 to 45 on the outskirts of a small town and I totally missed the sign. Sharp corner, cop sitting right on the other side. First ticket in at least 20 years, figured after 20 years of intentionally speeding I should pay my dues. It was 100% revenue collection though, there was another cop sitting on the other end of that town doing the exact same thing.
