Re: Speeding ticket
I have been in Law Enforcement 20+ years in Florida. I have given and received breaks in that period of time. Yes on one hand speeding in citable, however most of us drive like cops and over the years we all just about without exception do speed. I have never with knowledge have given a brother leo a citation. I have arrested a leo on a domestic( no discretion). We as a profession take hits all the time for things outside our control. We can only depend on each other. Once I establish that I have stopped a leo. I advise them to have a good day and hand their credentials back and leave. The rookies will see the light. Robocops don't last. Just my 2 cents worth.

Re: Speeding ticket
I am a south Florida cop and have been for almost 20 years. I have friends and family in departments all over South Fl, and family that was a GA LEO. My question is: was the "miamicop" an alpha-hotel to the GSP officer? Having stopped more than my fair share of LEOs, I have encountered a minority that were complete alpha-hotels..."What are you stopping me for?"...Uhhh, violating about 4 traffic statutes in a mile and a half of highway..."But I'm a cop!" ...and I am supposed to know this HOW? Certainly not by your driving! Perhaps if you put a sign on your personal car; you know, the one with the illegal tints on the windows and that @!*$%@! train horn!!! Unfortunately, we tend to remember the bad ones...
I have traveled I-75 and various county roads through the great state of Geogia, and I must say, every GSP officer that I have encountered has been fantastic. I got lost in Thomas County, and the kind-hearted deputy from Thomas County SO led to the right highway, and didn't even laugh at me...Macon PD was AWSOME!...They treated my family like royalty when we stopped in to say hello at one of their stations while driving through the city.
I apologize for the FL LEOs that are alpha-hotels. The majority of us are not like that. We do the same job and we respect your jurisdiction as much as you respect ours.

Re: Speeding ticket
hello all, I have never written another cop a ticket, ever. started in the business in Pasco Co in 1970, before formal training carried a 44 mag revolver boy those were the days. well in all fairness to the new guys learning the business they are being taught by FTO's who are them selves rookies.
I feel sorry for the next generation of cops I guess they will not be allowed to kiss their Mothers next. We are all brothers when the smoke clears there is nothing we won't do to help a cop on side of the road being harmed.
Lets hope the new guys make it long enough to find that common ground with other cops around the country. I think more cops would be better served by reading a few pages of Masonic law instead of the Georgia's Law book. Give us old guys a break
we all speed and its neat to drive fast in those new cars so look at yourself in the mirror and you will see me at 60 and still working

Re: Speeding ticket
I would just like to say thank you to the GHP that gave me a break over the Memorial Day weekend. I was driving for 9 hours straight and unfortunately didn't keep a close enough eye on the briefly reduced speed limit. He gave me a verbal warning and that was the end of it. I will not forget the discretion shown by this officer for an honest mistake. He was a true professional.

Re: Speeding ticket
I recently drove I-75 all the way through Georgia and back down to Florida. I did not see a single trooper in Florida. I saw approximately 60 traffic stops in Georgia by GSP and APD. There were some total idiots flying by me and every one of them got nailed. You guys do a good job up there and you save alot of lives. I was in a pack of 20 cars at one point and more than half of them were pulled! As a fellow leo, I realize that if I take a chance and speed, I also take the chance of risking my life, others, and risk paying a costly ticket. Keep up the good work and stay safe!
Florida LEO
