Having talked my way out of so many speeding tickets, it it ALWAYS good to have a great "story" for the cop as well as being super friendly to the officer.

My fishing kayak for sure got me out of a (reckless driving) ticket weaving in an out of traffic going over the 52 summit.

I say sorry officer kinda tired and want to get home after a long day of kayak fishing. Cop asks if I caught anything? I say ya sure, do you want to see? Then he says do you want to catch a ticket? (at this point I know I'm golden) and I say not really. He gives me verbal warning.


Few months later I'm speeding down 52 super early AM and get passed by a cop who flashes his spotlight on me (as a visual warning) and then takes off. He for sure could see my fishing kayak.
