on the road you are talking about in TX not MASS Not all roads are designed and created the same.


going from 55 to 65 not is a 10 MPH speed limit change NOT 30 MPH change.


unlike you an a few others on here....... I'm not in a rush to get a speeding ticket.

Well, this thread is not about you, so whether you are in a rush or not does not matter.
When in MA, for decades, people would drive 20-25 over on Rt93... not that I condone it, but just an observation. You can state your opinion, but I am stating reality. Reality is where (most) of us live.

It is about ME and its about EVERYONE who drives where this 18 yr old speeds or anyone who condones speeding and puts us all in danger.

Reality is if you drive reckless you can RECK A INNOCENT PERSON/S LIFE

I can only tell you my experiences. My tickets all got 'lost'. You may know more about the insurance end, but who cares? This is about fighting a speeding ticket, and how to win, and not have it show up anywhere. Simple enough. Been there, done that.

(My condolences for living in MA for 57 years, but that is just my opinion). Sorry he had to work until 86.

I am just the messenger, and am stating my observations, and reality. Personally I have never condoned speeding, I just have stated how it is. If you don't like the way others drive, then stay off the road. Geez.

Many states raised the speed limit from 55 to 75. This means speeding 20mph over the limit was not dangerous when the speed limit was 55.

many states do many things but this state MASS is the one we are talking about and the Speed LIMIT is 65 no less no No MORE What Other states do or have done has nothing to do with this road in this state.

if you don't condone speeding then you would not be posting the way you have.

Sorry that is not how it works . Laws are made for a reason to protect others both drivers and pedestrians. if you don't like the LAWS STAY OFF THE ROAD! Gezzzzzzzzzzzz
