Oof I bet the limit is maybe 45-55 there. That's gonna be a hefty ticket.

I’ve had one of those…not fun.

6pt ticket, 15 day license suspension, defensive driving class…can’t remember the monetary value of the ticket.

That’s rough!

I got my first ticket in ten years just a couple weeks ago.

I was cruising up I-80 just past the speed traps East of Auburn, and this Explorer cuts me off by getting in the fast lane going 55mph. So frustrated, as soon as I could pass him I did so and punched it… well, it was a CHP and he immediately pulled me over marking me at 84 in a 65. Felt like entrapment honestly,

Regardless though, I could’ve been hit many other times going well over 100 on more desolate highways, so I’m not too upset. I’ll still go to the court date and see what happens. I figure make em work for it since I’ve got the time and the money.

I am retired and have told many complainers to just go to court and play " let's make a deal". Usually it works out with a monetary lower fine and zero points. Just a waste of your time and some money. Most just don't want the points to show on their record and possibly raise their insurance rates. My friend asked my advice recently about a moving violation he got (commercial veh in a residential) and they made it a "jay walking'' summons and smaller fine. He was happy.
****My favorite driver comment..."did you make your quota"? I would reply that those were illegal and I am allowed to write as much as I wanted !
