Here is the situation. Your on a 4 lane divided highway. Two lanes going in each direction. There is a police car and they have the cruise control set at excatly the speed limit. Which of the following are you.

(A) my cruise is set at exactly the speed limit or slightly under so I wouldnt get with a mile of this guy.

(B) I would see this guy off in the distance and approach until I got close and then get in line with the other 6 cars following behind him.

(C) I would set my cruise to slightly above the speed limit and slowly cruise past and then when he was out of sight resume normal speed.

(D) I wouldnt even see him until I was almost even with his bumper at which point I would slam on the brakes and make sure I didnt dare past him, slowing down to pull in behind him.


Im always (c) and its funnny as hell to watch all the cars that are lined up behind him pull out to pass as soon as I do. Yet another reason I dont want illegal window tint on my car :)

I don't see how it is disrespectful to pass a cop that is doing EXACTLY the speed limit, or somewhat less.

I wouldn't go flying by or doing any radical lane changes, but I would certainly pass them, even if I was doing a few km/hr over the limit.
