I must run the gauntlet of FIVE photo radar sites and one mobile radar unit each way on my daily commute to work. In between these traps I speed like hell.

Why speed when you can go slow and make everyone else jealous?

Why is everyone in so much of a dang hurry they have to insist it is ok to break the law? To speed and not realize you are speeding is one thing, but to do it on purpose and brag about it is STUPID...

The license plate in your avatar would get you the ticket, lol. Justg on principle, as I have a sense of humor, the ticket would be my retaliation. Speed, with carelessness, is one of the biggest factors in the majority of vehicle accidents. I will grab some research later, as I have to leave for the shop to install my broken interior emergency trunk release handle, lol.

I don't know how they do things in NY but around here, if you get stopped at 95 in a 70, you'll probably get off with a ticket. Most anything below 70 posted and you'll most likely go to jail. I had a best friend killed in a wreck when the truck he was driving rolled, throwing him out of the truck and landing on top of him. The main cause was failure to control speed. Speed can and does kill. I'm not going to rant on about people that want to speed. I own a Camaro as well and know the feeling but I also know I want to be around to drive another day, be smart. <end of rant>

I personally have no problem with people driving as fast as they want, provided the following scenarios are in order:
1. They are sober, not distracted (food, pop, cell phone, lots of people in car, etc.), and very, very observant drivers who know how to drive. 2. They are driving a car engineered to drive and maneuver at high speeds safely and effectively. The Camaro SS is. Most BMWs are. Most Cadillacs aren't. 3. They are smart enough and familiar enough with the vehicle they are driving to know it's limits and will adhere to them. If you follow these, drive as fast as you want..... you will most likely NOT be the cause of any accident. |

It certainly explains the higher insurance premiums for the Camaro.
