why do the police speed?

Do what I did and look up the email address for, or call the traffic division Captain and professionally chew his *** about it if it bugs you that much.
People here drive like there are no rules or even lines and the traffic cops are nowhere to be found, so I asked if there was a new place where all the traffic cops go when they are on duty because they sure ain't out there doin their damn job.
I own and operate a fairly well known business here, so they know who I am and what my car looks like, but they also know if they mess with me they better have a good reason for it.

Now on the flip side, if they catch me doing 65 in a 45 I politely take the ticket without issue with them and pay the piper.
They have 62 officers here and TWO traffic cruisers in a town where everyone drives however the hell they feel like, and they hardly ever do squat even if something happens right in front of them.
Last time I got pulled over the cop said he was going to have to write me a ticket and I said "Yea, well at least your ticketing SOMEBODY for SOMETHING" :D

Can't ***** about them not doing their job and get pissed because they did, right? :D
