Deal, did somebody say Deal? Oh, Dean, yeah that's me.
Default Radar trap

Well, it appears that RPD has nothing better to do than put a totally blacked out motorcycle cop with instant on radar in the pitch dark at 11:30 at night between Lakeside and Plumas on McCarren in that BS 35 MPH zone.

Needless to say, he missed both Matt and I, law abidding citizens that we are, but my V1 looked like a bloody Christmas tree.

Didn't know they let the motorcycle cops out after dark. Sneaky bastards.

So be careful out there...

At that time, with nobody else around, the V1 was no help since he was Instant On it would have been to late.

When there are other prople around, it will help you out, but if you are on your own, you may get owned.

Yeah, that was a close one, ...come to think of it, that cop was sitting in a very dangerous spot. Right on the white line in the dark, his chance of getting plowed are pretty good. I bet they popped a lot of speeders though. Brutal.
