I just wanted to share a positive experience with all the hate thats been going on lately towards LEO's. On my way back from class about an hour ago I decided to take a different route to grab a coffee. I wasn't really paying attention and by the time I saw him in the median he had already clocked me well above the limit. I immediately pulled over, turned the car off and got my papers ready.
He walked up and asked if I knew how fast I was going. I said pretty much word for word, "Honestly officer i'm not sure but I was definitely speeding, my mistake. No excuses." He just told me he clocked me at 63 in a 45, to slow it down and have a nice day. He never even took my license/papers let alone ran them. The whole stop probably lasted less than two minutes and both of us were respectful to one another. And like I said it was my mistake and no excuses, so me getting a ticket wouldn't have changed my opinion on how the stop went.
Props to a cool and respectful cop with the Palm Beach Gardens PD, we need more out there like that. And as a college student not getting that ticket means my beer fund remains unharmed lol. :beer:
