I saw several people on the drive from Goldsboro to Raleigh yesterday afternoon pulled over for doing less than 5 over the speed limit. I only know because I was traveling behind them and not making up any ground and I was only doing a couple over. Just glad those people were in front of me I guess.

^Same thing happened to my wife this weekend. She was going 1-2 over the speed limit, car passes her on left but only going 2-3 more than her as they weren't just pulling away, cop goes around my wife and pulls that car over. I've actually noticed most cars on 540 driving quite a bit slower than they were 2 weeks ago.

I did 75-90 all the way to Charlotte on Friday, mid afternoon, and all the way home on Sunday.5 hours of driving and actually didnt see a single person pulled over, nor did I see a single cop sitting waiting to catch someone. (off an exit ramp, hidden in the trees, etc.)Waze app did report quite a few police, but I never actually saw any.

^Same on the way to Wilmington and back this past weekend. Did my regular 10 over, no problems, didn't even see a cop.

I drove all over this great state between Friday and Sunday, and only one person get pulled. I maintained just a few over the limit because I'm a chicken shit. I think I passed a sitting cop twice during the entire 600 miles or so. I did see lots of accidents from Winston-Salem to Raleigh yesterday, that I suspect were caused by police who were camped out. It was on a stretch from Burlington to the the I-85/40 connection. Looks like people slammed on the brakes for the police, which caused some rear ending, which cause some rubber necking, which caused more rear ending. Took me about 3 hours to get from Winston to Raleigh.

Saw a ton of troopers clocking people in Asheville on Friday mid-morning (as soon as you climb over the mountain past Old Fort). Saw just a few cars pulled, but I can easily imagine more occurrences throughout the day.

Went to Charlotte this past weekend. Most people between Raleigh and Hillsborough were very hesitant to speed, seemed like very few people were going more than 5 mph over the limit. Likewise I saw a fair amount of SHPs on the side of the road (as well as Waze reports). As a precaution I didn't really go more than 9-10 over for the trip down.On the trip back yesterday I drove as I normally do on a lightly populated interstate, 7-15 mph over. Barely saw any cops but it was raining pretty heavily so that may have been a factor. Also Waze gave me a heads up about that massive wreck east of Burlington so when I got to G'boro I swooped down and took 421 to 64 instead - zero cops on either of those roads.Though when I was in Cary on 64 a Cary cop came onto the road while me and another guy in a Benz were both going around 75 mph. We both slowed down to 70ish and zero fucks were given by the patrol officer.

6 cops on the bridge at old reedy creek with a line of cop cars waiting to pull people over this morning during rush hourit was fucking retarded, i almost got rear-ended because their presence brought traffic to a full stop
