You didn't get a ticket, hence you got off lucky, especially in our Northwest Chicago suburbs. Go have a beer and enjoy zero added points on your license...

I'd rather have someone yell at me and be a dick instead of getting a ticket, IMO he was nice for not giving you one.

I would have called him on it.

Hey I understand that I may have fractured a traffic law. I appreciate that you are enforcing the law for the greater good of the people of this state. I am clearly in the wrong. That being said, I would appreciate it if you didn't act like a pre-menstral teenage girl who hasn't had her midol this morning. And what difference does it make that I drive an evo? Would you give the same hassle to the owner of a Camry? I would think not. Go write your ticket and enjoy your paperwork on my behalf, here's a dollar, go get a donut and calm the F down.

well today while driving past the forest preserve i get pulled over. no big deal, i prolly was going a little too fast.

i roll down my window and have my license and insurance out. And then i get this.

cop: "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR SPECIAL CUZ YOU OWN AN EVO?!?!"
me: "no. i do not think that.
cop: "SO JUST BECAUSE YOU OWN AN EVO YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT?!?!?"

i sat there silent.

cop: "DO YOU KNOW THAT 60 IS NOT THE SPEED LIMIT HERE? EVEN FOR EVOS!"

me: "i'm sorry, i wasn't really paying attention to my speed."

at this point i accept that i might have been speeding and therefore deserve a ticket, but not to be yelled at. the cop then takes my license and goes back to his car. not even 30sec. later he comes back and asks if i have any prior speeding tickets. i don't.

then just as a state trooper is pulling over to observe,

cop : "HERE IS YOUR ****, NOW TAKE YOUR EVO AND LEAVE!!!"
i grab my license and go.

i'm just shocked that he was such a dick to me just because i have an evo.
LOL, I would have totally agreed w/ him on the spot and then complain to his dept about harrasment. You didn't get a ticket so at least you got away clean.
