Don't argue with a cop.

So tonight was quite the night.
Along with a few wierd things happeneing, time flying by and so on.

I was on a delivery in belmont park(It's the military housing place. I was comming back, just about out of this place. And I see one of them decked out crown vics on another road. It looks exactly like an rcmp car, aside from it's stripe is red and it had military police written all over it.
Back to the story. I go past him, low and behold he puts his lights on. Alright, at the point I saw him I was doing about 40-45. So I though that it would be a breeze. He's walking up and I do some quick thinking and put my pizza bag on the seet next to me. Cop come to the window.
"Good evening sir, Are you aware of the speed limit around here?"
"30"
"I clocked you going 62"
"No way! I was not doing 62, I looked at my speedometer and it said 45, it didn't feel like 62 at all... no way I was going that fast."
"I clocked you going 62, I rely on my radar"
"There must be something funky with your radar gun then, because I wasn't going that fast."
"I can show you the gun, it says 62."
"I know it says 62, but I Wasn't speeding, there must be something wrong with it."
"Sir, it would be best for you if you stop arguing. With your licence and this ticket, it's just not worth it. "
then we went through the 'are you working' bit.
I can't remember the rest, but I know he told me to stop arguing three more times. When talking to this guy I actually thought I hadn't been doing 62.
On my drive home it dawned on me that they were trapping and had got me before I slowed down.
It was funny, they cop kept getting more and more pissed off with me.

At the end he told me to just slow it down a bit. I said okay, and he made me say it twice more before he left me go.
