1. On the highway, never speed around corners or over hills even if you're familiar with that route. Aside from not being able to see what's around the bend, cops love to hang out clockin' folks from the other side.

2. Despite you having the best detector on the market, a lot of cops leave their radar guns off until they can see you. This is so that your detector can not give you advance notice of a police presence thereby deadening your reaction time to slow down.

3.
BEWARE: Sometimes cops park on the entrance ramp to a highway just off an overpass. Be mindful,
they can clock you from behind.
YEP
4.
MOVE: Always allow the Claude behind you that wants to do 95, to go ahead of you. As he/she passes, smile and wave as a form of gratitude; this individual has just volunteered to become your new "guinea pig". Stay a safe distance behind, your guinea pig is an irresistible snack and will flush out any cops who may be lurking.
YEP!
5.
BE AWARE: Sometimes, motorists on the opposite side will flash their lights warning of impending doom waiting in the distance. Check your speed! Take care to slow down and proceed with caution.
Which is illegal as well...be careful if you want to warn others...they might be watching for that too. and...YEP.
6. Keep your eyes on the road but be alert for Cessna aircraft that may be monitoring your activity from above.
Not too common (mainly out in remote areas in highly travelled HWYS). YEP
7. Police aren't allowed to clock from private property.
You might be able to contest any citations issued if this is your case.
WHAT????????????? SAYS WHO? NOPE.
8. Some departments have enlisted the assistance of unmarked units. It may be difficult for you to distinguish between that of a law enforcement officer and your average Joe. These units usually have tinted windows making it tough to see it's occupants. But a keen eye can make out the blue flashers sitting at the bottom of the back window and the light bar perched at the top, just above it.
If a vehicle approaches you from behind, check for any silver or black laptop that may be present close to their dashboard, a possible sign that there's a cop behind you. These vehicles come in all shapes and sizes; I've seen VW Beetle's to 4X4 pickup's carrying a bed-mounted toolbox.
YEP.
9. In some jurisdictions, the police like to play dress-up! You may see them posing as city electrical workers, surveyors, phone line repair or even maintenance crews. Believe that they are out there clockin'. Slow down.
Not here. But I've heard of it.
10. Remember, you're probably being recorded so you want the officer to explain the reason(s) for the stop.
YEP. Unless you'd like to explain!
I love it when people tell me why I stopped them (not that I run traffic all that often anyway).
11. Finally, if you know you're busted and give in, you'll have to check but you may be able to take advantage of a local driving school. This usually results in a reduced fine and no points applied to your record if you complete the course.
