No, actually, because driving at 120 when the traffic is moving at 120 is safe and won't get you pulled over. I've been cruising at 120 several times with a police car right behind me and not gotten any trouble about it. Once you hit 130 it's very likely you'll get nabbed.
Yes, it's true that cops hide, obviously, but also consider that some animal might jump out from the same spot; if you're driving too fast to see them before you get in their visual range (they can't pull you over unless they actually see you speeding) then you're driving too fast, period.
Also, be careful about slamming the brakes when you see a cruiser. If anyone is behind you, you could get a much worse ticket for careless driving or obstructing traffic. Or, if it's actually the cop who's behind you, they're going to be seriously pissed off. |
driving 1 km over the limit is speeding.
I have known of people being pulled over (just recently) for doing "8 over". You are never safe a) when speeding as you are still violating and b) with a cop right on you. you can assume that he is checking your plates, past violations, sticker, vehicle history and then c) they can just pull you over for a "random" check.
The closer a cop is to you the more likely he will pull you over.
I never mentioned anything about slamming on brakes,it is obvious and also because I am far more likely to slowly down shift to avoid the blatant decrease in speed. Having said that the point was not mine so I dont know why you added that to your response.
And slamming on your brakes can be a two fold ticket, at the end of the day if fought well in court, while you may get a careless driving ticket you can very easily lay the claim of "following closely" which is not a fault of your own; rather on the person who is less than roughly 2 car lengths. Braking for the purposes of slowly down is not illegal, if someone happens to be on your ass at the time then an arguement can be made either way, for determining fault. |

I was the one saying that about braking.
I obviously wouldn't slam the brakes with people behind me. But usually at the speed I drive, people clear the lane. |

| You should have posted this in the COR, where there are users from all over. There was a thread there about this a few months ago, search it up. |
