the only thought I get about this is.
A. your engine was off
B. your lights were on
C. you slowed to an almost stop(no brake lights)
D. no flashers(so you didnt think you had reason to go slow)
E. you continued to pulse and glide your way home.
from my understanding any main road (interstate,expressway etc) has a min speed of 45mph
add lights and or stop signs and in most cases the min speed goes away.
also one other thing to think about is when your engine is off a battery is max 12 volts not the normal 14.5 ish. so lights appear dull
the officer prob saw you as a vehicle in distress or more so a vehicle that was not fit to drive on a 60mph road.
when I drive a manual vehicle I tend to tap the brakes to give alil warning as I can prettymuch stop with no brakes and people not paying attention dont see the tell tale brake lights.
not saying you were wrong or right but its subjective depending on who looks in on the situation. I can safely say that the officer doesnt eco mod or get 60+ mpg on their way to work. so it must have looked out of place to him.
