Quoted: I was doing 101 in a 70. I was lucky that the trooper was a gun guy and I had some cool stuff in the car with me, he left me off with a warning. In my defense is was a beautiful day today, 86 degrees sunny with a bright blue sky so I had the top down and was not paying attention to my speed (although my normal speed on the turnpike is 90). Trooper Herrera if you are a member here and see this, thank you and have a merry Christmas, I will donate what the ticket would have been to the NRA-ILA. All I can say is it aint that in Minnesota  |

I must say, since moving here I would say they are fairly lax in the speed limit department. Gone by a couple of troopers doing 85+ thinking I was getting clipped for sure... nothing. I think there is pending legislation to increase the speed limit here to 75, which I think makes sense. It's flat, straight, and the weather is nearly always sunny and nice here.

The trooper I dealt with said today was a "century day" meaning they were only stopping people doing over 100. He said most troopers will not stop people until they are into the 90s. I usually set my cruise control to just under 90 and never get stopped and routinely get passed.. |

Depending on the road, conditions, traffic, and the vehicle; 100 mph is not even remotely dangerous. You think it's perfectly fine for a 1982 Yugo to go 75 on the freeway, but it's OMG DANGER for a 2013 sports car to go 100? |

the nerve of the police enforcing traffic laws It's hard to feel sorry for someone who is busted speeding. There are signs everywhere and it's a completely preventable stop. Occasionally the speed limit is not clearly marked, but unless you're in Germany, you know you're speeding at 101mph.

100 on the interstate in the south is an everyday no-big-deal occurrence. 90 is the new 55. I got off with no tickets at 88 and 92 in the last year.
