Friend of mine yanked the throttle return spring on his Camaro one day, that is where I got the idea.

Have you ever used that trick yourself?

Btw, I slam on the brakes cause I've heard it messes up the radar. Though in this case he used a lidar, which probably is faster. But I didn't know what he was using. Usually the cops use radars around here. 

But these cops were on a mission the other day. They were stopping cars left and right, and taking no more than 5min to write up the ticket. I bumped into them three times total that day.
