If I called the police and told them I drove at 56 for a few seconds on a 55 mph road, what would happen?
<p>Suppose I call the police and confess that, while driving on a road with a 55 MPH speed limit, I drove at 56 for a few seconds. They did nothing to prompt it; I just randomly decided to do it (but I had indeed &quot;sped,&quot; if this is even speeding) What would happen?</p>

<p>They would laugh at you and possibly send out someone to make a mental health welfare check.</p>

<p>They might tell you that under <a href="https://oregon.public.law/statutes/ors_810.410" rel="nofollow noreferrer">ORS 810.410</a></p>
<blockquote>
<p>(2) A police officer may issue a citation to a person for a traffic
violation at any place within or outside the jurisdictional authority
of the governmental unit by which the police officer is authorized to
act: (a) When the traffic violation is committed in the police
officer’s presence; or (b) When the police officer has probable cause
to believe an offense has occurred based on a description of the
vehicle or other information received from a police officer who
observed the traffic violation</p>
</blockquote>
<p>and therefore they would instruct you to have a police officer witness the speeding next time.</p>
<p>You could petition the court to be allowed to fill in the citation form, and depending on the county, the petition might be granted.</p>
