I had a DPS officer tell me he would only write for 6+ mph over the posted limit. Of course, this happened as he was writing me a ticket. I was easily 20+ over but he only wrote me for 10 over. That was back in the late ‘80s before I figured out it was just cheaper to keep it closer to the limit.
 
It's been 20 or 30 years ago, I had a good friend that was DPS guy. Back then you could sign your life away nd do a ride along. I went 3 x's. Very interesting. But anyway in all the stops he did I never figures him out! lol. He'd let folks go with no ticket, warning or ticket. i never figured a pattern out!! I know guys complain about cops speeding when not on a call, obviously they do. We were headed to Madisonville to eat, cruising pretty hood, we met a Mercedes going the other way about 95 mph. He just hit overhead lights to warn the guy, he said I can't ticket him while I'm doing the same!!!! Scariest moment with him was a quick car chase and getting a Mustang GT a kittle airborne! wow.
