Not for nothing, but use Waze and keep an eye on your mirror.

Speed is a thrill to be enjoyed daily in small sips lest Big Brother spot you and take your fun away from you.

Radar detectors, Waze, glance up in the sky frequently and daily knowledge of the patrol schedules helps you pick and choose your guilty pleasures.

Long duration speeding is best done on the race track where you only need to focus on the roadway, guages and mirrors.

Around these areas I find the biggest problem is people in the PASSING lane are actually going slower than the right lanes and below the legal limit.
It would drive a proper German driver to road rage.

I'd like to have a directional EMP device that would shut down these vehicles and cell phones.

Oh "Q" how are you coming along with that device?

We go over 40km (25 mph) over the posted limit and the car can immediately be confiscated. You find yourself at the side of the road with no vehicle. And there are substantial financial penalties as well.

It depends who pulls you over as well. Most guys if you are friendly not not being a prick, will reduce it as if you were not doing 40 over.

Rest of the times my radar detector is amazing I never thought it would work as well as it does.
