Default 95 mph in a 45 mph zone

Got pulled over riday night doing 95 in a 45. I was racing a 03 GT, got him in second gear, then I saw the lights. I slowed down, pulled into the nearest parking lot , and the sheriff pulled me over, he let me off with a warning, because he goes to church with me. Man that was a close call.[8D]

lol nice one, i got a ticket a while ago for "fleeing from police" and "street racing". I was flying down I75..again and some punk in a magnum tried to catch up with me and WOT'ed it when the lights flashed i tried to slow down but the brakes "glazed over" which means either the metal got to hot or the brake fluid boilded but i made it a couple more miles down the highway before i could pull over and the cop was *****ing his head off. But lucky you, and thats why you dont skip church

It may save you a lot of greif once you know you got caught if you pull over to the shoulder and wait for the cop. Tell the cop you are interested in his safety and did not want for him/her to have to chase you. Don't admit or voluinteer anything that may incriminate you. You might just get away with a warning. This is what cops do when they get caught speeding. Of course, the get no ticket.

ANOTHER AWESOME RADAR DETECTOR IS THE PASSPORT ESCORT 8500, IT RUNS AROUND 299, BUT IT DEFINATELY IS WORTH IT TO ME, IT HAS SAVED MY BUTT ALOT.

Have any of you tried radar jammers? I haven't heard much about them lately.

The best radar detector out on the market is the valentine one. It will set you back about $399, but it is well worth it. it covers 360 degrees around your car. the only downside is it is illegal in some states.
