It's not, and the reasons for that have been explained several times. The only reason you can come up with is: 'they're cops, that's why'. Sorry it doesn't wash. If it's danagerous to drive those speeds as one side of the doublespeak says the ISP has needlessly endangered me about once a week for last month or more. Or, they are hypocrits. Having driven that fast and more safely, I vote for the later.

My vote will cancel yours................obviously no matter who it is
explained to you, you refuse to read or except it......
So go out and speed at 80........see you in court!

So you are voting that the ISP officers who have passed me in excess
of the speed limit with no particular place to go are driving unsafely.
Hrm.

Court is not relevant here.

I didn't change the subject, you said your vote cancels mine, so it
must logically be the other choice I presented, the ISP officers driving
unsafely. If this isn't what you ment, please clairify.

Court is not relevant to the question at hand. Are these officers driving
a safe and reasonable speed or are they driving unsafely? If safe then
they are ticketing safe drivers doing as they do. If it's unsafe they
shouldn't be doing it without damn good reason. Simple as that. Court
is your tangent because you do not wish to address the key issue.
