Re: Hummer-hater cops?
i don't necessarily disagree with that logic, but on the other hand, the law is the law and speeding is speeding.
You could reasonably argue as well, with similar logic to support your case, that you should be ticketed for driving a run-down POS. its lower part quality and integrity makes IT more hazardous to other drivers. more likely to blow something and do a spontaneous lane change or whatever...
is there any actual concrete non-biased-by-enviro-loons data that demonstrates that since the SUVs hit the streets and then grew, more people die on the roads?
because while i do think about the H2 and its size - i mean, i'm alot more able to mangle somebodies Impala than a Porsche - i can see the road ahead of me sooooooooo much better. peek right over a 'burban -vs- not seeing over even a minivan or whatever.
anyway, does such data exist?

Re: Hummer-hater cops?
The police here are the most friendliest out of my list of Hummer fans. There's not many here and they recognize me instantly followed by a wave. Especially from the female officers. 
Can't say the same for the cops in Idaho.  |

Re: Hummer-hater cops?
Not so in Florida where almost every cop I know has at least one big truck in the family. Go to a few hundred accidents and you almost have to buy one if you care about your family. Now "ricers" are anouther story. Watch an F-250, Hummer, and a lowered accord with exhaust, and lousy pant job. Guess who gets pulled over every time.

Re: Hummer-hater cops?
Never had a problem in the H2 so far, then again I usually keep it under 80 on the interstate. Now, my streetbike (RC51) is a different story.
