Default Tricky Cop Last night shooting radar! Ka Band

Last night I was driving down interstate 45 heading south coming up to the 1960/I-45 exit. I was about 2 miles north of the exit. Well I have my backup radar Bel 980 in the car and it starts getting a Ka band reading....never get a false radar reading for Ka.

Well this goes on for about a mile...and sure enough on the shoulder there is this white chevy pickup truck.....but wait.....where is the police lights on top.....where is the side markings on it.....nothing

I turned around and from the front it has no markings either, just a black grill guard on the front of it.....im confused

So I turn around and sure enough he had someone already pulled over on the shoulder, had the lights on his visor going off....other then that...no other markings.... talk about tricky....plus if I was being pulled over with no markings...I would really wonder how valid he is

You are correct about not knowing who is pulling you over. Down here in Mexico you actually have kidnappings being carried out be people dressed as police or real police, so the moto down here is never stop . Can't wait to get back to Houston full time.

I'm a Forensic Pathologist and I'm working on a project down here with a new hospital. I travel back and forth to Houston, but right now I'm stuck solving some things down here. Once I'm done down here I'm back to the US for good. To much bad stuff happening down here,

I thought Mexico City was beautiful. It had some bad parts but the anthropology museum is one of the best in the world.
