You might think it's because I'm a girl, but the cop was gay. 😛

so what your saying is if the cop was not gay that you would have recieved a ticket???

Seriously? 😕 She's saying that because the cop was gay, we can conclude that he let her go for some reason other than that she's an attractive female.
 
I get away with speeding quite a bit, but I was an MP (which has helped a few times) and I drive a black Crown Victoria. Recently I passed a state trooper on the highway doing about 85 in a 55, and just put my hand up and waved.
 
I got let off one time for doing 50 in a 35 with my lights off, it was a new car. I pulled my license out and my unzipped my fly and pulled my pecker out. Put the license right next to my junk. Cop comes over and asks for my license and sees my penis. He liked what he saw and I got his number instead of a ticket!
 
The last three times I got stopped, I got away w/o a ticket. Only one warning write-up. It pays to be polite and look contrite.

Kinda. I was clocked at a 112 in a 65 by a plane. It was the mother of all speed traps - cops had dozens of cars pulled over. Was late for working the company booth at a job fair in another city. I didn't get a speeding ticket but did get a reckless op. The boss hired a lawyer who turned out to be a family friend and buddies with the judge. Case magically disappeared.

You were doing fvcking one hundred and twelve miles per hour. That's no "speed trap". :Q

Gotta love the justice system...
Yeah, it was a gift from god. Especially since I had just slowed down...
 
Once, but only because he decided to illegaly search my car and found nothing.
I was doing 50 in an empty business road with a 30 limit at around 3-4am.
 
I got pulled over doing 140 on the highway. He didn't clock me, but pulled me over about 5 miles later.

Cop: Do you know how fast you were going?
Me: The speed limit is 65, and I was going 65.
Cop: Are you sure about that?
Me: Yes.
Cop: Didn't I pull you over last week?
Me: Yes.
Cop: Don't let me catch you again, i won't let you off the hook.
Me: Okay 😀
