Yes, and sadly when the cops go out in force b/c of people like these the media get wind of it and are quick to spread the good word (primarily for us majorily law abiding citizens) but also wind up warning the real idiots that need to be busted as well. So in other words, they get the heads up and behave.

The double edge sword.

You will most likely not see many police cars . These a$$#@!es are using alot m ore non typical cars to catch people driving what they call "aggressive" . They have trucks , a vast mix of cars including Nissans , Toyotas and I have been pulled over by an Odyssey of all things . I know there is a Silver Mustang that drives the I4 Lakeland area that will taunt you to race . Just what your ass !!

The funny thing was that I was hauling ass on I-4 this morning and surprisingly I didnt see any police. Probably when I head back home I will see a lot

I got pulled over for doing a 81 in a 70 on I-4 near tampa during their last 4 on 4 sting. Luckily the cops let me off. I'm driving like a snail the next couple days.

On my way home yesterday on I-4, I saw an unmarked F-150 just getting done writing a guy a ticket and then pulled back on the road. Then a silver mustang (the model before the current) changing lanes and swerving through traffic like there was no tomorrow and didnt get pulled over and the cop just looked like he just didnt care. Not sure if that was an unmarked because I couldnt tell if it was a GT from the distance. The unmarked cop then pulls onto the 75 exit heading south probably to get back on the interstate.

OT - yesterday when I was about to head to starbucks I saw a kid on a pocket bike on bloomingdale ave getting pulled over in an unmarked explorer and the cop waited for his parents to come and pick him up. FUNNY STUFF.

Damn......I need to renew my membership

I can't tell you how many do not use the blinkers!
Then they give you the finger because you didn't let them in??
