The AI has developed a nasty sense of humour

Recently I've been 'nudged' numerous times by Security ships inside the No Fire Zone. Especially if I'm going at more than 90 m/sec.

It seems that the AI is trying to get small fines for 'reckless flying'. The Sec ship starts a scan and buzzes me, trying to touch shields so that, if I'm 'speeding' I get a fine.

This happen to anyone else?

Result is I always keep my speed below 100 m/sec in the No Fire Zone unless all the Sec ships are far away.
 
I've noticed them do that too. They'll buzz in at top speed from either 10:00 or 2:00 high while scanning hoping to nip you. I've just started flying in faster, doesn't always work so good in the type-9 Heavy though... :p
 
Never mind the Fuzz causing bother. I was recently leaving a station in my Annaconda being a good law abiding citizen, when I heard the tell tale sound of a sidewinder coming from behind. The ship flew over my bridge and decided to hitch a lift on the bow of my ship.

I humoured it, but as I sedately moved away from the station I noticed it didn't want to go anywhere, I therefore decided to give the ship a little nudge, by pushing my thrusters up a bit.
Next thing I know im being fined for the collision as thrusting up had nudged me slightly over the 100 mark.

There is no ai in this game. There are a couple of code snippets that simulate ballerinas, billy goats and 'I can make it dangerous' cheat codes from the 90s.
