the R is too easy to speed in. Crusing at 80 feels like 50, so you speed up and next thing you know you are waiting for your court date in the mail.

60-65 on the freeway. I actually speed more on local streets cause it's harder to control.

I drive within the speed limits with both my cars. Not worth getting tickets, especially since I'm attempting a career in law enforcement..

Interstate if there is light traffice, usually around 100mph, just out of vtec in 5th. Around town usually 60 to 80 depending on the road. Yeah, I love tickets, but I love the ticket clinic more

Craig - 7 tickets and not a single point

Try to stay around the speed limit maybe 5 over on local roads no matter what I'm in.

On the interstate 5-10mph over in the R, 10-15mph over in the Civic (gotta get to work on time ).

Http://www.theticketclinic.com The best $69 bux you'll ever spend. Thou it did cost me $130 to get out of one I got in Daytona.

EDIT: From their site:

The Miami Herald called the Ticket Clinic "master of traffic technicalities." In nearly every state, there are rules governing the way an officer may write a ticket, how the speed measuring device is calibrated, (radar, laser, vascar, paceclock) and rules regarding "speed traps". The lawyers at the Ticket Clinic and affiliates know these rules inside and out. In many cases, the mistakes the officer make will result in a dismissal of the charges.

All my tickets were dismised.

In the Hype R, I stuck within 10 mph of any posted speed limit.

The Volvos see 80+ every time I'm on the interstate. They are all sleepers in more way than one

It's not that I'm in a rush or anything, I just like to go fast. This is one of the main reason I don't own a bike, as it's even easier to go fast on thouse. Doing 100mph on a bike is like a walk in the park so you think nothing of it... It does start to get a little hairy around 150

Craig - Who hit 150 on an R1 and thats enough to scare me from ever owning one.
