Defensive driving. It was rush hour traffic here in Rochester on HWY 14, everyone was going about 62mph.. The highway turns into a 1 lane which alot of people don't know about (I have been cut off there before and have rolled my truck because people don't yield, just merge)

So I was slowly scooting by everyone because I didn't want to get cut off again, and this is my only possible route to take. I was going about 67mph, in a 55 zone. Last car I passed was the state patrol officer. He said "I was going approximately 65mph when you passed me." He didn't get a mph of how fast I was going, but I asked him why he was in the yielding lane and why he was speeding, and he said "Because I am above the law"

Sweet, officers are indeed assholes.
