How reckless are you?

I used to race people if need be...
People often confuse "need" with "want."
Like when people go to a fast food counter and say, "I NEED a Whopper."
When really, they don't. And often times, they really, really don't.

What, pray tell would that "need" be?

This was like 10 years ago. We're way past that.
Jeez. My driving history defines reckless. I will admit that I use to be silly and street race and wind the car up all day and everyday but now that I look back on it, I realize how stupid I was. I received 10 tickets (5 of them speeding) in my first two years with the car. I no longer drive like that and have been ticket free for awhile.
It's funny, I've only been pulled over/ticketed in red vehicles. I received my very first citation driving my dad's red f-150. Never got a ticket in my old black eclipse spyder or my very old white 95 neon.

I typically move with the flow of traffic, which around here is between 70-80mph. I drive at about 75 on pretty much all highways unless road conditions will not allow it. I am a fairly patient driver and generally avoid stupid manuevers.
I have given in to bad judgement and gotten into the go pedal on the street once or twice, but for the vast majority of the time the most dangerous thing i do is a bit of spirited backroads driving when I am alone.
I'm 24, only been pulled over 6 times.
3 times were when I lived in CA and the officer was "fishing" (hoping to catch me doing something wrong) just because my old car was modified. Didn't even get a warning for those as I was doing exactly the speed limit all three times (tired after work, cruise control on the speed limit).
Once I was doing 80 in a 65 at 2AM (I was the only car on the road in both directions...well except for the police officer
), once I was hauling ass because I was late for work (I deserved this one as I was doing about 90mph. The officer was cool and reduced it to exceeding 65), and the other one was 47 in a 20 (which pissed me off because I was only doing 37 and the cop popped me, without clocking me btw, right after the speed limit change from 35 to 20)
