So Im driving south on I15 in the 80 mph area. Im doing about 90 and this woman passes me and is pulling away. Shes several hundred yards out ahead when we pass a highway patrol car on the side of the road. You see where this is going... He stops me and not her! Of course I had to ask why he didnt stop the lady in the silver edge. He says what silver edge. I say really. The one in front of me that was going faster than me. I didnt see it... Then I get the why didnt you stop when I was behind you with lights on. You know its the law to pull over and stop for emergency vehicles. I said like the 7 cars between you and I didnt do and you didnt stop them. He then says everyone has to pull off the road and stop every time an emergency vehicle with lights on is behind them and then if they dont stop behind them they can get back on the road. I respond. Oh so you mean when you were a quarter mile behind me and no one was between us you thought I should stop when you were crazy far away. He says yes. Im not sure I responded vocally but I gave him the really look.i then said I pulled into the right lane as soon as I saw lights in the rear view just like everyone does, so you could pass unobstructed. He gave up and just gave me my ticket. I decided I wasnt done wasting his time for wasting my time so I offered to pay for the ticket right there. He was confused. In Montana its an option to pay the officer. It says so on the ticket, or so I hear... Yes I did go from 0 to 85 as fast as my car would go as I left the stop. The patrol was out in force today. I saw at least 12 people stopped after that. Apparently they are super ticketing the 80 zones.
