I was passing through this town while traveling for work and an officer was sitting in a vacant lot. He said I was going 49 in a 35 but was willing to knock it down to 45. I was not even going that fast. He asked to see my license, insurance, and registration. He stated that my insurance expired last year but the expiration was clearly listed as Sept. 2015. I had to convince him that Sept 2015 was in the future. I think being wrong made him want to write me a ticket even more. After writing me a ticket he insisted that my car was overheating. This turned out to be a nearby bonfire which I also pointed out. Then he wanted to know where I was going and why and which route I was planning to take. Why? This was a very awkward situation and made me very uncomfortable. This is clearly a way of generating revenue for a town that is too small to support itself otherwise. If an officer says you are speeding then what recourse does one really have to say otherwise?
