I mean I deserve to get a ticket, But I was cruising at 80 and just sped up to 90 for a sec, and thats when I he radared me. I deserve the ticket, but it just time consuming to goto court and traffic school. Well i'm not even sure i'll be able to get traffic school.

I'll Keep you guys posted

I got tagged for 82 in a 55 in Arizona, thats 27 over. The speed limit was 75, and randomly changed to 55, its called a speed trap, it happened a lot after the first one on that highway, anyway, the cop was right behind the bush which was right behind the sign. I passed the sign and let of the gas, yea, i'll get to 55, gimme a couple seconds.... nope. anyways, 250 dollars later, i did traffic school and was alright. I'm not bitter about that ticket, (the price was a bit steep, but hey) the law is the law. That cop was damn nice. Good luck.

Wow! I guess you just can't speed anymore without the law getting the easy percentages in. here in Dubai the law has a different outlook on speeding. if you speed and get caught by a camera that's a fixed 200 Dhiram fine ($60.00). if you speed and don't endanger anybody else then so be it. Speed and have an accident then do not pass go and do not collect 200 bucks etc etc. personally I have gone past police vehicles doing 160 in a 120 zone and don't even get a sideways glance! The 120 zone cameras are set at 140 and now the new mobile speed units have a speed indicator on the side of the road about 6 feet high! if you miss those you deserve a ticket I guess.

Arizona and Nevada cops I hear are pretty strict about their state and local speed laws..

As for Wisconsin.....my kinda state!

Here in Cali, we get nailed for everything.....at least running a straight pipe is only a 10 dollar fine from the administrative fee for a fix it ticket I can't wait to throw the Sebring straight pipe on my new baby...muhahahaha!

How about 50 in a 35 for $130. Send in the payment via phone, don't show up for court since it's "paid" and get a notice 3 weeks later saying i never paid, and that it is now $616, with possible licence suspension.

Was that directed at me with some sarcasm? I was just pitching in, as that is my current business with the law.
