RE :”mph over the speed limit and faced a $256 fine, the officer told her after she pulled into a parking lot off Fourth Street N. As she fought back tears, her life story spilled out. She was a full-time college student, her only income from part-time work as a bank teller. She had a wedding coming up in November. “I've got house bills to pay,” said Smith, 21, visibly shaken as she clutched the wheel of her blue Saturn. “I'm freaking out.

Maryland is full of police radar speed gun traps and unmarked patrol cars looking to drivers to nail and even the marked cars are black with the ‘pull over’ lights designed stealthy so drivers dont recognize them till it's too late. I also watch for cars behind me that are speeding faster than me to see if they look like police.

Even with all of that I conclude that drivers that get pulled over are not paying attention. Most of the time I can spot the police pretty easy. If I approach one I stay behind them, or for fun move to their blind zone. Same with red light cameras which stand out in appearance.

Driving while talking on a hand held cell phone is now illegal here too.
