I've had the same issue, I was driving through the hills a couple of weeks ago, and there had been an oil spill, so I slowed down to 35, even though the limit was 40. Come round a bend and one cop car is sitting in the middle of the road, and the other one is yelling at me to pull over.
Being a P plater, I was ****ting myself haha! I co-operated with the guy even though he was insisting I was doing over the limit (he had no radar or anything, he was going on guesswork). I had 2 cops, one was giving me a lecture, the other was walking around my car with a torch looking for defects, found none. They let me off with nothing, cause they had... NOTHING!
I've noticed the same things, they are pinning you for very little thing these days! I got rear ended over a month ago, and the driver drove off so i made a report... still waiting to hear from them! Over this state too, it's all about the money, not safety anymore!
