the same cop.
I have a little Kawasaki 500cc 2-stroke dirtbike set up for the street. 250 lbs, 65 hp a true hooligan bike. One day I got pulled over ripping on it by a motorcycle cop hiding in some trees.
Me: "can you give me a brake?"
The cop: "what is the capital of Vermont?"
Me: "ahhh, I don't know."
The cop: "Montpelier"
I ended up with a ticket........
Fast forward 2-yrs later. Ripping down the highway on a Ducati I got pulled over and it was the same motorcycle cop.
Me: "can you give me a brake?"
The cop: "what is the capital of Vermont?"
Me: "Montpelier"
The cop: "Today is your lucky day."
He closed up his ticket book, got back on his bike and took off.

It never hurts to ask for a pass. I suggest brushing up on state capitals and their spelling just in case.
Your results may vary.
