Believe it or not....it happened. And no, I was not a blur. He passed me. It was on 95, north of Bangor, heading towards Houlton. I realize this is a widely unpopulated area, but at 105, he blew by me three time in two trips. If I had to make a guess, he was around 125 mph once, and the other two times around 110-115 mph, in his blue crown vic. No lights. No sirens. This was just his cruising speed I guess.
In Mass., they keep their non-call speeds around 90,or so. Oh..I forgot, they are trained, so it is not unsafe I guess. I don't know how many times I have pulled to the right doing 75 or 80, to let a cruiser pass me on the left.
