Lets see, I've had 3 run-ins so far.
First was about 10 years ago. I was driving to work at 6AM and got tagged by a bored cop in a podunk town for 60 in a 45. Guilty as charged, but I hadn't seen another car in the 30 minutes I had been on the road.

Second was 2 years ago. I opened up my Magna on a backroad with nobody else on it. Sure enough, a cop pops up from over a hill. Busted for 80 in a 55. Good thing he didn't come along a few seconds later or it would have been a lot worse.

Last one was 2 weeks ago. I was travelling on business and got a rental car without cruise control. Who rents cars without CRUISE CONTROL this day and age!?! Got tagged for 72 in a 65 but got let off with a warning.

It was a very long time ago (22 years).  Riding home from work at 4am (had a weird shift - 5:30pm-3:48am).  The day was warm but the early morning was cold.  I rode to work with a windbreaker (this was back when I was *more* stupid concerning riding gear).  I was cold riding home (45 minute ride) so I bent over and hugged the tank while trying to grab some heat from the engine with my left arm.  I must have looked like a real *racer* to the cop that followed me for a mile (nope, I didn't see him following me).  I got a ticket for going 70 in a 55.

Had to go to court.  I was respectful but the judge was a jerk, "So, you like to ride fast huh?"  Anyways,  I paid my fine and left.

I now try to be very aware of possible situations where my speed would be noticed by those who care.
