Yesterday when my family and I were traveling from our small rural Saskatchewan village to the large metropolitan city of Saskatoon (metropolitan as they have hot & cold running water and indoor plumbing) on our narrow single lane highway (called a highway, more like an Ontario country road) when a marked RCMP cruiser coming in the opposite direction pulled a U turn (well more of a three point turn as the road is so narrow) and came after me to say I was speeding. We were shocked, as he said we were doing 129 in a 100 zone!

Got a ticket . I went on line to look the member up only to learn he is Saskatchewan’s first reserve RCMP member. He retired after 34 years and now is a reserve member as we are short of cops here so they went into the retirement pool to re-recruit! Anyways it was a standard front facing mounted radar device. It was a flat road, but not perfectly level and we have open fields all over the place and no you cant watch your dog run away for three days otherwise I could of seen him before we got into the car. yes it was a car and not a tractor!

Before you ask, yes I was doing the standard and accepted 110 KM/h, but not 129 KM/H as fuel here is still just under a buck a litter and I had my family with me. First ticket here…so I need help, advice, suggestions, deference counsel, what ever can be shared with me. Thanks
