Well here is the post where everyone can share the speeding ticket stories. Any good ones? How fast were you going? What was the whole situation? WHO HAS THE HIGHEST SPEED?
Thanks

got clocked at 155 mph on I35S in Kansas. i knew i was clocked because it was night, my V1 Ka band exploded, i was the only car on the highway, and flashing lights appeared on a highway entrance ramp behind me. i kept accelerating until i got near the 2nd exit ramp i saw. i slowed quickly, took the exit, turned around, and started heading north on I35. as soon as i got on I35N, i saw 3 KS State Troopers hauling butt on the southbound side - doing well over 100 mph.
then .... i looked in my rearview mirror and there was a KS State Trooper just a few feet off my rear bumper with no lights on! i don't know where the heck he came from!!! i set cruise for 55 mph and drove 15 miles back to KC with him on my tail. never got pulled over.

Woe. Dude. Lucky, lucky. Dang.
I should be so lucky with cops. Nearly every time I get pulled over, I get a ticket. It doesn't matter what the reason - even when THEY are flat-out wrong! Talk about p!$$y.

That is an amazing story and outcome. 
You are pretty lucky.

I never would knowingly break the speed limit. I'm a member of the No Ticket Club since long before I got my Viper, so no story from me.

170 on a bike. not only on the tickets but on the police report too
cops seem to get pissed when you go fast, see them and go faster

That is good to hear. Stay away from the tickets and you will be much safer.
155 on RT12 on the outer banks. Spent the night in jail, but it took the cop almost a day to find me so the charges didn't hold water...

130 MPH in a 35 MPH zone in a 1969 Corvette. Coolest cop ever! On a Harley - Gave me a warning, because he liked the car....
P.S. - No idea why this road is 35 MPH. About a 1/2 mile straight with no entrance to the road.

No tickets in the Viper.
3 on my R1, all within the first 3 months of arriving in the US. Highest one was 180mph (they got me with an airplane). Been on probation for a while.
Weird...had the cleanest driving record in Europe.
Since then I don't really stick around when those [******] lights go on.
Not that I actually would ever try to elude the police, but it seems to be they are not able to turn around their car and catch up with me. Maybe their cars are underpowered or they are overweight. Don't know - need to ask next time I talk to one of them.
Yes, I hate pigs. Most of them have an IQ which hardly exceeds their shoe size. White **** on a power trip.

I've had a few speeding tickets but my funniest, um, luckiest happened one nice afternoon last summer. I was just puttin' around for a few hours enjoying the day. As you guys have all experienced, every Honda with a fart can owner and his dog wants to race, but I decided I wasn't going to give in. Finally, after three hours of enjoying driving around beautiful Vancouver Island, I decided to head home. I stopped at the last red light before the clover leaf onto the highway towards my house. Of course, some hopped up Civic with No Fear stickers pulls up beside me. They all wanted a show and I decided to oblige. I fire out of the hole and hit the clover leaf at about 90 mph having to nearly power turn it to make it. Just as I enter it there is an "Alert" (what they call a drunk driver check stop out here) set up right in the corner! There are four or five cop cars and an officer standing right in the middle of the road waving me over like his arms were on fire! You should have seen the look in his eyes when I entered the corner at Mach I!! I thought "@%#$@%!!@" I'm going to jail for sure. He wasn't impressed when I said "Well the good news Officer is that I haven't been drinking, the bad news is if you had been any further out onto the road you would have a Sneaky Pete tattoo on your crotch!"
After sucking a$$ for about half an hour it turned out the cop's daughter and mine had gone to the same summer camp and were friends. What a break, he gave me a front license plate ticket and sent me on my way!
Disclaimer: I never street race in any residential areas and this was on a freeway, but I still made a bad decision hitting a blind corner at that speed (even though I had been through there a thousand times). I was lucky and learned my lesson...always look for the reflection of flashing red lights above the clover leaf if you can't see the turn itself!!
...waiting for the flames from MASR (Mother's Against Street Racing). Sorry, that was probably in bad taste. Just to remind you, I don't street race, I leave traffic lights rapidly to ensure minimal time is spent reaching the approved limitations in velocity as dictated by our law enforcement officials. And I never do this rapid light leaving in residential areas that have children, pets, etc. I don't call what I do street racing, I call it using the vehicle I am lucky enough to own within it's, and my safety limits.

Well if its anything like the roads near my place then its 35mph because some politician wants to go on vacation in New Zealand. (read: revenue generator.)
