I've never had a speeding ticket because I drive the speed limit

That's great. Keep up the good work.

People always drive slow until I pass them. Then, their little ego's get a wedgie and they suddenly feel like trying to keep up with my bumper within about 6 inches.

I was prepared to challenge the ticket in court on a technicality (even though I knew I was guilty) but at that point I figured I'd just pay the lowered fine and not waste any more of my time at the courthouse. The best part was that It never showed up on my record so my insurance wasn't affected.
That's really cool, actually, and that it worked out.

Mine was similar, about 75 to 80 in a 55 MPH zone. In my case the cop got me and the other guy, so I don't think I was going to get out of it. I hate the courts and lawyers and all that, but I did get it fixed as I had money from my summer job and didn't want my insurance going up. Who knows if the mathz would've workout out (been cheaper) with an insurance cost bump had I just let it go through, but there isn't a guide for that sort of thing on how much they would raise it and I didn't want to risk it.

I get ticketed regularly but never get angry about it.
If you drive above the speed limit it's your own fault and nobody else's. Deal with it.
Of course it helps that the fines in Germany aren't particularly high.

Ask if he got it on radar and if the radar detector has been tested for accuracy lately because you totally wasn't speeding and the cop hates you because you're black.

Lol, forgot that in the barbaric US you get actually pulled over by a cop and ****.
Here you just get photographed by traffic cams with radar and get a letter afterwards.
