CHP was hiding in the shade of a tree.
I could've bought the second most expensive vintage bike to add to my collection.
I've known a couple of cops that would "miss" a good ticket stop, going the other way, not on the radar gun, had someone else stopped, etc, etc.
The next one they saw got hammered, some times just the next speeder, sometimes the next same/similar car they could nail.
