Some states call that reckless driving and will impound your car on the spot.

Two months in your 335 before your first ticket? That's the definition of restraint.....

one month and 6 days for me.
70 in a 50 (km/hr) - got it today
I don't blame the new 335d though... I would have been going that fast in a Pinto.

Got my first one after 5 months with the car in October. 51 in a 35. Luckily it was dark so the officer didn't see that I had no front plate too

A Pinto would not make the speed.

It took me about a month to pick one up, but it wasn't for speeding. "Improper passing." I passed on a perforated yellow line but crossed back into the right lane on a double yellow. Speed limit observed too. The cops around here are awful.

One one ticket for me in a year and two months. 19 over, was a stupid speed limit anyways... Needless to say I don't go down that road anymore.

I hate driving through AZ, because they have all those "Photo Enforcement Zones" with those SUVs that take pictures if you're speeding. One of them took a picture of my car, but I still haven't heard anything (knock on wood)...

At least it wasn't a $300,000 ticket that this dude was hit with in Switzerland (where fines are based on wealth). Youch (not that he wasn't a douch)!

Many years a ago my dad got pulled over in Ohio for driving exactly the speed limit.
He was "impeding the flow of traffic" which was, I guess, something like 10+ over the speed limit. He got a warning.

i just got a ticket in my 11 year old mercedes convertible..the cop couldn't even do math..he saids that i'm going 15 over ie 48 in a 35..so i went back and he manually wrote 13 instead of 15 because he doesnt know how to use the ticket machine in his car..long story short, the guy is a jerk since i was driving on the beach and had no intention to speed. i hate the money making system for the state but no grudges as i considered it as an ocassional pit stop..oh yeah, he wrote me up another ticket for not having registration...what a gentleman!!
