Default This is one of those things that should be common sense

I don't mind that law at all. Any decent driver should do this already.

Default IIRC, that's a new law here (NC) too

If you don't slow down or pull over, huuuuuge fines.

Default Holy... good thing I did slow down, eh?

More scary thing is that the cop actually *might* have been after my a**. I probably lucked out and the cop missed me since I merged onto another freeway. Dude/gal in the Liberty must be feeling the pain now... poor sucker.

Thanks for the heads up, I will be sure to slow wayyyy down...

Is this why I have been seeing some police cars that are parked next to the freeway with lights on for no reason?

Default Agree ^^^^^^^

As much as I dislike traffic laws, the cops are just out there doing their jobs. They got families to go home to and stuff, not right to have people running into them all the time.

Default if they are going 2 under, i'll pass them at 3 over

they've got nothing that will hold up in court.
