There are two apparent mistakes Mr. Adams makes regarding traffic laws. One is that no one is allowed to exceed the posted speed limit even, if he is in the process of passing a slower car, so the speeding fine was perfectly legal. Although, in most states, it is legal to increase your speed above the posted limit to pass a vehicle that's impeding traffic. What's more, anyone on the road who hears an approaching siren is legally required to pull over and stop, even if the driver believes the police are not after him. However, this is not required on a divided highway. This is a safety measure imposed on many, but not all, roadways.
