I have learned after 20+ years with Marine Patrol that the actual facts often lie somewhere in the middle of the two versions and that each person’s perception has become their reality. I also recognize that not every officer is going to have an identical approach to their enforcement of our various laws and their application of authority will differ from one to another. That being said, a goal of our training is to establish consistency in the enforcement of our laws and rules from one officer to another.

Skip, is there a form letter or are you forced to memorize this? Just kidding, I had to read it twice (it was posted twice).
Winni says he was,'t even doing 25, let alone the 30 to 35 he stated the officer told him. Now in the followup, he states a pace of 40 mph. In reality, using articulable suspicion, he was probably doing a BUI check, reasonable at that hour in some circumstances. But he couldn't prove Winni was going more than 25 mph.
