i was kind of racing another car (both of us going over the speed limit) and we pulled up to a stop light. a cop appeared out of no where and pulled over the guy in front of me. do you think he took down my license plate # while we were at the light?? how do cops normally handle 2 speeding cars?

they usually pull both of you over. they pull one car and tell them to stay there then they pull the other over...you probably got lucky he didn't see you or he let you go.

They usually pull both over or in an instance where there is a danger to the public call for backup to shut you down. Good part is since they didn't try to stop you they can't get you for evasion. They might but not likely, however, have gotten your liscense number and will be on the lookout for you to do something else wrong. They will not stop you and write up up now for something you did before thank goodness. One last thought....Radar picks up one car at a time, most likely the other person since they were pulled.

"kind of racing"...as in you were "kind of stupid and could have caused an accident, you blithering idiot!"? Keep the racing on the race track and not on the streets. You got lucky. Sometimes they'll call for backup and ticket both on the spot. If he got proof of you speeding (car camera with speedometer), then you could get a ticket in the mail, and the car owner would be liable to pay it. Or, your tags have been noted, and the next time you get caught racing the fines will be increased. Who knows, you might have gotten lucky this time. Use this as a learning experience and don't race your car unless you're on a racetrack.

they will write your tag number down and some will write it up and others will put it on a list to look out for as racing. they can pull one over and call the other one in while you drive off to have you pulled or have a ticket sent to in some states.

specific, he can do this. The radar unit will show the cost of one motor vehicle yet whilst he can observe which you maintained the comparable following distance then he knows you have been the two traveling on the comparable speed. the two aim autos could could be rather close at the same time for this to paintings. Your description makes it sound such as you have been too far aside consequently so i could bypass to courtroom. you would be waiting to plea good purchase for a decrease violation like 60 in a fifty 5. i could additionally get your cruise administration and your speedometer checked. We many times supply you the 1st 5-10mph over the decrease no longer as a results of fact we expect of the obstacles are too low yet as a results of fact the generating unit considers the speedo precise sufficient if its interior 7 or 8 mph of you extremely speed. Your speedo could desire to declare 60 once you're rather doing sixty 5 to sixty 8 and the motor vehicle manufacturers think of it extremely is superb. I checked my contemporary motor vehicle against my radar unit and located that it reads 3-4mph larger than it is going to (i'm doing 30 and it says 34). discover out what the blunders on yours is and make allowances for it. . In different situations, the radar receiver could turn decrease from side to side between 2 autos that are close at the same time. in case you have been interior the lane next to a various motor vehicle and have been close to to the comparable speed i could see the show screen turn decrease from side to side from fifty 8 to 60 various situations. if so, if I see one motor vehicle passing the different, the only doing the passing gets the summons for 60. If i can not tell it extremely is the speedier one, in the event that they the two look like they are on the comparable speed, the two summonses are written for fifty 8. the earnings of the doubt continuously is going to the violator. I rather have an older radar unit that in the process elementary terms clocks aims going interior the alternative course. newer gadgets can clock aims shifting interior the comparable course, like the guy who got here flying up at the back of me immediately yet slowed down and did no longer bypass me whilst he observed my motor vehicle. I observed him mindset in my mirrors and that i understand he replaced into doing a minimum of 70 (in a 40) yet my unit can not music that form of aim, the newer ones can.

you got lucky, they usually flag down both of you. I doubt that he got your plates. But next time you race try and out run the cop too.
