Being ticketed for 6 over is pathetic. I have NEVER written for anything less than 15 on the freeways and 10 on surface streets.
That officer is a confirmed a-hole if what you said is correct.
Also be aware that in most states there is no points (fine only) if within a specified mph. In Michigan, I usually write 60 in a 55 with true speed in the remarks. That way, no points, but if they fight it, I have their 81 in a 55 noted.

Oh, just ask Bonnie. She's usually the first one to laugh at me but she can verify my speed and what the cop said. I saw him sitting up on the side and I was the only one going by at the time but I didn't change my speed because I never thought he would stop me. I was wrong.
I didn't understand why he would ask me if there was a medical emergency? I mean, even if my speedo is wrong, I was doing an acceptable speed for the conditions. (Yes, over the posted speed but I've come to understand the way it goes) When he asked that, I knew he would write the ticket. He acted like I was going a lot faster. The whole trip I was trying to get the best gas mileage I could. Got 26.3 from Mobile, AL to Houston TX
Normally I do speed around 15 over in safe conditions. So it was really red assing to get this one considering I wanted to drive faster and all night I was the guy getting passed and staying in the right lane.

And Bonnies right. I got away with MUCH faster so many times, I'm still way ahead.
It was funny, when I pulled off I was kind of bitching about it for a while and my daughter said "Uh, dad. 71 is speeding too." Smart alec kid.
