Ranger...I'm sorry for your bad luck...but hun, you admittedly were speeding. OK, so all the lanes were empty and therefore you weren't endangering anyone but yourself...but the limit is there for everyone, not just to bust YOUR balls when you are alone on the road.

I highly doubt that the cops were sitting incognito just to bust you and piss you off! They are doing the job they were hired to do! If you choose to give them a reason to stop you (and with each ticket you got...you had a choice in the matter beforehand), they will do their job and you'll pay the price.

And I've gotta ask...why in the world weren't you wearing your safety belt? It's been proven to save lives more times than not and I find it second nature now to wear it at all times in a moving vehicle. Regardless of it being "the law", it's smart to wear it and a nice thing to do for one's self!

Sorry if this seems callous...I'm just putting myself in the situation and thinking I'd deserve the tickets if it happened to me.
