Here we go again!!!!
You have a selection of cops with a hard-on for you. You can figger that ANYTHING you do that is even REMOTELY out of line, there will be a cop right there handy to give you a ticket for it....... Your only alternative is to drive like the proverbial little old lady from Pasadena for a while, until the cops viagra for you wears off. You can dispute the ticket, but, I don't know how much success you will have.....
On a side note, now they are trying to limit acceleration rates? Holy crap.

I don't know about the laws in Texas but if you got that in Florida I would tell you to just lawyer up now. In FL they will screw you HARD for anything that has to do with street racing. Two of my buddies were riding sportbikes and took off from a light "too fast" per the officer and also said they were drag racing. Never broke the speed limit. Both got huge fines, community service, etc. If you've ever ridden a sportbike you know even taking off lightly you will leave the average car in the dust. My gsxr hits 60 in about 3 seconds and 100 in under 6.
Yea my buddy gots a busa and it will tap out in first at around 96... Some officers abuse there Authority's... How can they pull you over for speeding when i do 75 on the freeway and a cop weaves in and out between cars and pulls away on me easy running code 1 they try and cut in front of me i just slightly speed up and hope the hit me cuz ill rip them a new one
My little ol 750 only does 87 in 1st lol. It's BS but you've got to prove your innocent- with something like that I wouldn't take a chance without a lawyer. I got lucky last time I got a "racing on highways" ticket was before they changed the laws in FL and the officer wrote me up for the wrong infraction- so when I went to court I just showed the judge the actual ticket written and she let me go with a $78 fine and no points
. That was about 11 years ago though.

Now as far as them cutting in front of you and you wanting to speed up to cause an accident. Well, do that and I can assure you that even in the off chance that you are awarded a judgement in your favor, they will have the last laugh. You might as well get a hold of your ankles because your gonna be getting screwed left and right.
I'm not trying to come off as a *****, but you have to understand how your posts are coming off. Either way. I hope your just blowing off steam right now because I would hate for this to escalate between you and the cops. Might as well let lying dogs sleep.
Sell the truck, and buy a Prius. Only solution I can think of that will keep you from in front of the blueberries and cherries.
You won't win messing with the long arm of the law. J415 nailed it.
If you were a cop, would you follow the soccer mom in the Caravan, or would you keep your eyes out for the cocky kid driving too big of a truck that will most likely do something reckless to show off?
It's bad enough younger drivers are already easy targets. Standing out above the rest with a big truck and "rolling" a black smoke trail turns you into an easy ticket.
Not trying to be mean or a jerk, but take this as constructive criticism. If you don't change your driving habits now, your wallet will be the only thing hurting in the long run.
