Not just that, but if it does indeed jam radar, you are committing a felony every time you turn it on. That's a far cry from a misdemeanor traffic infraction.

Raynor. Love ya man but this thread is officially

My 5th gen SS it higher off ther ground than my '99 Z-28 ragtop. This makes it seem slower as my ass isn't dragging on the ground. Slow it down...and use that speedometer! My low slung old 'vette made 55 seem like 75. My old Blazer at 75 seemed like 55. The higher you sit off of the ground, the slower it feels. use that 20 in one center display as a speedometer or set your "max speed warning" to less than 5 MPH over the highway speed...so a warning "beep' will alert you.
In FL, the interstate has a 70MPH limit. I set my speed warning to 75MPH, and use it...unless I'm feeling lucky.

Meh.

Yeah, what biojack said was like saying, "As long as you don't poop at all, you will never accidentally poop on the floor."

That's how these cops can afford their C5's and C6's. Sorry dude, I'm not giving any policeman in suburbia (any state) a 6 figure salary unless they are seriously putting their lives on the line. Meeting monthly quotas for citing excited Camaro owners for doing 10MPH over the speed limit is not worth that kind of money.

Get your overpaid butts to NYC and get involved in the NYPD and then talk to me. Those grunts on the streets should be getting 6 figures. 2 white cops in the middle of an angry mob at Malcolm-X Boulevard, Harlem, trying to maintain peace there. That's what I'm talking about. I've seen it. Most policemen in suburbia love the reward without the risk. Get your hands dirty and get paid. Get over yourselves and think of something better to do with your time than speed trap people like the thread OP here.

haha exactly that was hilarious and i totally agree with u.

Thanks man! I thought this post was going to get devoured by the Rayner Vs. The Evil Twin argument.

Man some of these excuses are getting so ridiculous...
Only thing to say is.. you have a speed limit. no matter if you are going 1 MPH over or 50 MPH over technically you are breaking the law no matter what YOU think a safe speed is. If you get busted for speeding, and you were even doing 1 MPH over you have no legal argument to why you were doing it, own up to it and pay your fine...
I am done with this crap.

I prefer to own up and hire a lawyer to exercise my legal rights as an American citizen.

The ticket for 52 in a 40 is a source of revenue. I don't think I'd feel any safer traveling on that road because I know of a ticket that someone got there.
