Blair, it's been a while. It was on 80 W in Dixon. The crappy thing is that I was not speeding for the fun of it or just to speed. I was trying to get to Vacaville to work Urgent Care.

Hell, the average speed thru has gotta be 80mph, hard not to go that fast... good luck... I'd fight it anyway...tell them you were on the way to an emergency....

Over here, 90 mph is the "I can legally haul you in" speed. I'd say it's a huge difference. 90 or over with a passenger can be considered attempted vehicular manslaughter.
