I second that.

I too have a good detector despite the fact that I never go more than 9mph over and seldom that much. It's just a great reminder to keep an eye on my speed. Haven't had a ticket in almost 40 years.
I always check my mirrors while im driving from time to time, cos i like to be aware if someone is getting too close around me. some stupid a55hole in a white bmw 135i was tailgating me yesterday on the highway i almost just wanted to tap the brake and let him eat **** but i did not wanna hurt my brand new s'tang spinning out on the hwy

I use an old saying that is still relevent,
"just becauae you have a fast car doesn't mean you have to drive fast"
You don't own and drive a performance car and not bend a few laws every once in awhile. The difference is you have to be more aware.

I know this is a pretty broad statement but
"If you live in the United States and drive you most likely break at least one law every day you get in a car" People in Michigan most likely triple that just on a daily commute.

I got pulled over by CHP today for 20 over. Officer was cool like Fonzie. Ultimately told me to slow the freak down and gave me a warning. Great Guy.
