Good to hear! Get yourself a hidden radar detector now, and if you're gonna play do it away from the city! At least you got a reasonable judge, I think most of them (judges) are good intentioned people, its the rotten apples we hear about most!

You might do better over here in Atlanta. I got pulled over once by a black Dekalb county cop (I'm white). He was coming on to the expressway just as I zipped past the ramp at 90. Pulled me over and ended up having a great talk about if my truck was faster than a Lightning and then he let me go with a verbal warning. Cops out here, white and black, tend to be pretty nice guys (though I'm sure there are some rotten ones).

Every time I've gotten pulled over I was 100% polite, very respectful, and I admitted right off the bat that I was being stupid (I don't say "yeah, I was doing 90", but "yes sir, I was being stupid."). I think they appreciate it over what so many people give them....
