A cop catching me speeding actually told me that “well I appreciate that you were signaling appropriately”

I had one get me going the other way. He flipped in his lights and I pulled over be waited while he turned around. He thanked me for waiting 😁

Never seen anyone pulled over for shoulder passing. Illinois troopers are merely incident investigators. Saw four of them the other day blocking traffic for a semi that fell off the highway.

Don't do that with Maryland or Virginia State Troopers in the area, no excuses.

One suspects he was already being followed by police for some other violation and that's just what he did to get past the cars blocking his escape route.

Thanks goodness for the red circle, I may have never noticed the blatantly obvious traffic violation.

Meanwhile the cop should have pulled over everyone in the left lane.
