I don't know what is more astounding... The fact that the hyundai could go 147, or that the guy had the balls to do 147 IN a hyundai.

Damn now that would suck big time if they had cameras on our highways. I'd have to put trackers on a GPS to indicate cameras along frequented routes. Hmm interesting business concept. Create like a google map indicating all speed sensored cameras en route.

Wow, I'll have to keep this in mind when we visit Arizona in a month and a half in our swifty G6 rental (or one of the like)

They have a method of catching speeders on the Mass Pike now!

Fastlane......just wait till they start ticketing based on entry and exit.

They will never do that. They would lose fastlane subscriptions sooo fast, it wouldn't be worth it. Plus, the whole idea sounds like a union issue whereas it automates some policework, making less guys needed. The MSP have a very strong union and I bet they would fight it.

Yup, I heard that too. I was just talking to a neighbor who said that you can get a ticket if you exit EZ Pass at the Hampton Tolls on I95 and Enter at the Dover tolls on the Spaulding Tpke, you can get ticketed if you do it too quick a time. I guess this would be true at any interval between EZ pass tolls. Much like the how the air patrol uses markers on the highway below to time distances traveled.
