arno: Here's a foolproof line I used on a highway patrol officer on a trip to Vegas back in my college days when I was driving an old clunker. All the other cars were whipping past me, but he decided to stop me. I asked how fast he thought I was going. He said 58mph. (The limit was 55 at the time) I looked him straight in the eye and said Officer, you must be wrong, this car doesn't GO 58 mph. He then asked if I belonged to the Triple A and suggested that I have my speedometer calibrated. I batted my eyelashes, said, "Yes, officer, I'll do that," and he let me off with a warning.
