Let me see if I can tell this story in short form.

A number of years ago, we were on a tour bus heading into Las Vegas from Hoover dam on a four lane interstate. Ahead of the bus was a Nevada trooper going exactly the speed limit. There was a big long line of cars and our bus behind him.

I asked the bus driver why he doesn't pass the trooper. He said, "oh no...this is a set up." I said, "BS, he won't ticket you for going 3 miles over the limit on an interstate. "Yes he will," the driver said.

About that time, a car behind us took the bait and crept past the trooper in the passing lane. I mean like 1 mile an hour faster. BAM!!!!!!!! On came the red lights and he nailed the guy.

I could have ****.
