You are a police officer working highway patrol. A car whips by you, measured by your instrument at 30 miles over the speed limit. You turn on your rollers and pull over the vehicle. The man behind the wheel smiles as he sees you: he's your partner, who is on vacation this week. Analyze the social pressures you would feel to not write him a ticket, the types of justification you could use to not write him a ticket, and the ethical arguments that refute each.

What will be an ideal response?
