I Fought the Law

Jesus broke the law. So did George Washington. You did, too, and we want to hear about it.

Stupid County Mount-Me

Up +108 Down

It was about 11:30pm and I was headed home from where I work which is 6 hours from home. I live out in the country and had just come through the last town before my house. Well in Texas the night time speed limit law was changed to where the speed limit is always the same. After coming through the town this cop pulls in behind me. On the four lane road he keeps speeding up and passing me then slowing down. I'm doing 60 at the time just waiting for him to pass. Eventually I tire of it and proceed to speed up to 70 (the speed limit). As soon as I do he pulls in and pulls me over. He come up and ask me if I'm in a hurry. I explain that I was heading home and wanted to do the speed limit. He then tells me he clocked me at 70 and the speed limit is 65. I tell him no the speed limit is now 70 because of the new law. He says no that's not true. So I begin to yell telling him where the speed limit sign is and he needs to learn the law! I tell him where the sign was and even offered to get in his car and ride with him for him to show me where the 65 mph speed limit was! At that point he's pissed and takes my license and insurance and goes back to radio in. It takes him about 20 seconds before he comes back and hands me my papers and ask me to just slow it down. I tell him "Okay, I'm going to drive the speed limit."
