briangw Posted January 24, 2003 Share Posted January 24, 2003 There is an easy way to avoid all tickets...as a rule, no matter what the speed limit is, don't drive more than 9 mph above it. I think the saying goes "9 is fine; 10 you're mine" Most cops start the tickets @ 10mph and over - think about it - you've probably never heard of someone getting a ticket for anything less than 10 or 11mph over the limit. Set your cruise to 74 for 65 or 64 for 55 on the highway and try to stay @ 44 in the city. You aren't exactly flying @ those speeds but it's safe and you are able to drive over limit w/out really worrying. Stick to these guidelines and you should be good to go. That's not really true in all places. My friend received two tickets in two different places in NC, doing 37 in a 30 and 45 in a 40. Both cops were state troopers and according to him, were major jacka**es. They were probably trying to get their quotas for the month, though.
