...write speeding tickets too! 83mph in a 55 zone is expensive! He was going the opposite direction in his F150, I thought he wouldn't bother with me what with duck blind drawings and other conservation stuff in the area (Il River near Havana), ten minutes later....flashing lights. Expensive Sunday ride.

I believe it had a Kansas state trooper and couple locals pull that one when they couldn't shake anything else on me .

I think in most places anything over 15 over is a reckless. I'm thinkin it's gonna cost you more than just the fine. Might want to prep yourself for an increase in your insurance rates as well.

Your bad behavior reflects on all of us.
You should have been able to outrun an F150.

in la, 20 over gets you a trip to the jailhouse. any speeding ticket will require a 2nd mortgage. i think the cheapest ticket is over $200.00, then you get to add in court costs too.
