[QUOTE="alsih2o, post: 2029426, member: 4790"] I got my first ticket in 18 years last week. I was doing 56 in a 40. I had just left class and my head was just elsewhere, I was 1/4 mile shy of where the 55 starts. There was a major "speed trap", 8 motorcycle cops sitting around a corner with 3 guys with radar guns shooting over a grassy rise. Cop stepped out in traffic and waved me over. He asked about my last ticket (and laughed when I explained how long ago it was) and asked me about class. He wrote me up for 45 in a 40, saying it would easily be dismissed. Speed limits are there for a reason. Speeding is more dangerous to the people you share your community with than doing drugs, unsafe sex and owning a firearm combined. It sucks that you feel singled out, but it is a rule. :) [/QUOTE]
