I'm a dissenter by nature too, but all battles aren't worth fighting (to me at least). Of course, I probably wouldn't have done the dipsy do to try to avoid the man. As for fairness in tickets, I've had all kinds of muscle cars and sports cars over the years. I have had just 2 speeding tickets, both won in mini vans, doing absolutely nothing dangerous, but speeding none the less. I thought both were ridiculous, but I considered them lifetime achievement awards for past transgressions.
When I was considerably younger my dad told me "Son, you're a crusader, and while I admire that in you, today's world doesn't like crusaders. Keep doing what you think is right, just remember you're gonna suffer for it"

Words to live by.

I raced around in my youth, got a few speeding tickets, never fought one because I was alwasy speeding when I got the ticket.

Age has slowed me down, mainly because I get a lot more MPG going the speed limit!
