Hi,
I’m responding to this part of the thread because you asked “any ideas.”
I will put it this way a 2 MPH error is nothing to worry about. Any law enforcement officer know there there are errors in any speed devices they use. That’s part of their training and so they are actually looking for those who drive faster like say TEN MPH over the posted limit especially in a residential, school or lately work zones. Those items them an attaboy as for being a righteous citation.
2 MPH really doesn’t fly in front of a judge as “a probably cause” to stop you and definitely not a search.
I watch enough cop shows to know this nationwide.
A broken light or one that is out is another story. 😊
Cops cannot stop everyone one. A tolerance has to be built in.
Most of assignments are centered to look for safety violations.
Especially fast lane changers or not using a signals.
A term well used is “a change in the direction of intent” without proper spacing will catch their eyes right away.
A 2 MPH discrepancy will never get mentioned.
I learned that from my deceased stepfather that sped all the time even if I wasn’t in his van.
If you speed you are passing or keeping up with somebody as both mean the same thing.
In New Zealand they use speed cameras in the back of vehicles stopped along side of the road.
So unless you live there don’t worry.
I’m sure they have a tolerance on that method of law enforcement there before you get a ticket in the mail or attached to your rental car agreement and sent to you. I read that!
With that said,
You should be surprised if you will ever get anything for TWO MILES PER HOUR.
Now when a high overhead dealership is involved all gets lost somewhere between morality and a clear conscience with all service writers.
I also feel that a salesman can never be a true friend but a cautionary person on commission.
Going with your experiences in life or a gut feeling to get comfortable with any dealings, keeps life entertaining.
I have only bought two vehicles new in my lifetime and those gut blows taught me a lot about ever doing that again.
In the thread …?
A car with only 20,000 must have been a lease vehicle or maybe has a history of something else but if it feels good later, what can anyone say?
I’m glad the Brickboard is back online.
I have to clear out all my history inside of Safari to get away from the 403 errors it finds. And that only works sometimes.
