Speeding......

A Mr. Mark Taylor driving outside of Richmond Virginia southbound on Interstate 95 in the far left hand lane at approximately 55 MPH minding his own business, when he noticed in his rear view mirror a Virginia State Policeman right behind him.

One mile later Mark Taylor is in the same lane nothing has changed except now he is driving at 65 MPH. One mile after that little has changed except the Policeman is now right on his bumper as Mark is driving at a 85 MPH rate of speed. The Officer now flashes his lights and Mark reluctantly pulls to the side of the road. After the Officer demands Marks drivers license and registration, he asks Mark, "Mr. Taylor I cannot for the life of me figure out why, when you knew I was behind you for quite a time and that as we both continued down the road you sped up knowing fully well that you could be cited for speeding. What caused you to do that.

Mr. Mark Taylor looked the Officer directly in the eye and softly spoke, "Officer, three years ago today, my wife ran off with a Virginia State Policeman, and I thought you were him bringing her back."
