    Really close. Good braking. Why staying in left lane? In MI that would get you a ticket as left is considered pass only.

    Didn't even think about that... but I was a lone wolf, nobody else on my section of the road. Probably should have been on the right, though.

    Lucky. But was there a chance that the LEO was targeting the other side from the rear? Hard to say. I have been in situations where I wondered why I got a pass when I was sure I was nailed. Maybe you got under the threshold before his kill zone.

    Very true, speed up, I try to keep it under reckless threshold for that very reason. As for Cusp, idono, but I'll take the pass! If it was C/O it would not have alerted full strength originally from the distance I was at, but maybe my detector automatically threw full strength alert because of how close I was in addition to the sudden appearance... You could be right about that.
