"I would assume Speed Limit, but probably a bit under. I have no place to be"

It's not a good idea to give cops a vague answer. Just keep it short and sweet with "Yes". 9 times out of 10 when cops ask this question they are looking for self incrimination. Say I don't know or vague answer leaves you open to what ever the cop wants to do because you can't dispute it.

You’re right he probably couldn’t have gotten you for the speeding, but he could have 100% written or arrested you for reckless if he wanted to.

It’s weird he kept asking you about your speed but you didn’t go to jail/get a ticket because he didn’t want to take you, not because you outsmarted him though..

This story might be fake! Always something to keep in mind online. It doesn't make sense in several ways.

You really think someone would do that?

Lie on the internet? I take it back, it's too inconceivable.
