He promised to write me a ticket if he saw me speeding again, and he was a man of his word. I thanked him and went on my way. Was a little awkward when I went into the station for my next shift.

...when I was a brash young officer,(if you can imagine that) I once got dressed down by an old white-haired school crossing guard when I (with my new wife by my side)went the wrong way in a block beside a school that during drop-off and pickup was only one way...other times two-way...clearly marked...I knew better...wasn't even close...I was red-faced for a week...oh, yes, OF COURSE I was in uniform...

...he was prolly checking you out and got a call to go to...because we all drive sloppily from time to time, when an officer sees someone driving very carefully and precisely (especially slower than the posted speed), he sometimes wonders why the driver's trying so hard not to get noticed, and will pull him over to see if he's DWI...happens often and I've seen/heard it play out in court and the judges(several, not just one) went for it...that's especially often the case at night...

...me either, sure gives my sphincter muscles a good workout when those blue lights come on...I think they're connected to my wallet...
