Got busted in my Duramax at 96 in a 65. I was in uniform so I got away with a ticket for "75+ in a 65". Paid $150 for traffic school so it never went on my record

All the sources I have read say 130mph for Crown Vics. The Chargers can go 150mph from what I've read.

Man, you guys need some TRACK TIME! I haven't gotten a speeding ticket since I got a racing license 7 years ago.

Werd. That's where most of my speed is done. 163 mph on the straights, no fear of tickets.

My only speeding ticket was 65 in a 55. Pulling over and waiting for him and being polite and truthful didn't help.

i can't tell you how many times i've been stopped or how many tickets each stop has resulted from, but it's been more than a couple handfuls. my biggest speeding ticket was 91 in a 55, but the judge reduced my fine and citation to >10% posted speed limit and gave me 90 days deferred, which was subsequently dismissed. now i've had more than 10 tickets in my driving career, but the highest gross fine ticket combo i've had to pay was $1300 for speeding, tint, failure to signal, and seatbelt (which i was wearing until he pulled me over, but wrote me up anyway). but thanks to a good attorney and a heap of cash, i only have one ticket on my record from when i was 18. no wrecks either.

The fastest I've been pulled over for was doing 95mph in a 55mph zone.
It was 11pm and no one was on the roads except some douche bag on my tail.
I only got a warning as the officer liked my new car at the time.
Told me not to scratch the paint by hitting a deer carcass.

The fastest I've ever driven in my 135i was 155mph for about three miles straight before I let off. Again, no cars were on the highway.

I've been caught a couple times in cars for 20-30mph over. Luckily I've never been caught on the motorcycle...

I am pretty sure the new dodge challenger the CHP uses are limited to 150 if not higher. When my friend got pulled over he said "what the hell are you doing? I was going 150 to keep up with you." But the CHP was chasing him with lights off at night so he had no idea someone was behind him. IMO he got off REAL lucky.

No speeding tickets in my M yet (KNOCK ON WOOD).

I recently got my first ticket with my M, for not giving a turn signal.

The fastest I've gone when getting a ticket was when I was driving the family minivan. I was going 79 mph on a 60 mph zone.

Got a warning for 82 in a 55 on I-95. I don't know how. I am always insanely polite with the yes officer no officer and I never give any excuses. They always ask "any reason you were going that fast". There is only one right answer "no sir, officer"

I just got another on 1/1/10 in the exact same spot 95 in a 55 ( i was going 110) no proof of insurance my paper expired on 12/28/10 even though i pulled it up on my iphone that wasnt enough. then to top it off front windshield tinted then another one for the sides and rear
