i dont suggest this (yes i saw the "j/k") but i would slow down to like 25mph in a 40mph or 50mph in a 70mph or something like that OR if you go to turn off if they are on your ***, wait until you are right about to turn off and slamm on the brakes and then slowly turn in

They will probably give him an unsafe speed ticket for being under the speed limit so much...

cops CAN be dicks, they can legally give you a ticket for 1mph over or under, i suggest what spoolin said, but also, any time you see a cop smile and wave.....this way they know you know they are watching, maybe they will back off a little. if all else fails, get evidence (video, write down dates,times, and events) and bring it to a lawyer

Get proof of what happened, then speak with the chief of police. Be well prepared, speak properly, and be nice. Tell him what's going on and that you would like it to stop. If he tells you that it will, problem solved. If he doesn't, get a good lawyer and put the bastards back in their place.

As far as the cop that threatened to ticket you for something you didn't do, don't worry about it. If he does it, there's your proof that he's an ******* on a powertrip.

Dude that really sucks!!! Sounds to me like it's profiling. It's probably a touchy subject, I know you really don't want to **** off the law, they can really make your life a living hell. If nothing gets done by the chief, then pursue other action. I remember years back in Kendleton, TX, the TX Rangers came in and shut down the law there. The police were writing tickets and pocketing the money. Best of luck to you!!! I hope everything turns out better!!!
