Driving sports cars is just begging for a ticket. You can't help yourself, you MUST occasionally push the envelope. It's not that that we're talking about. It's those who push the envelope, get caught and then bitch about it.

I speed on occasion and recently discovered the joy of barefoot driving - both of which are against the law here in GA. If I get busted, tough shit, I'll take my medicine and shut up.

I agree though that 5 or 10 over is ridiculous. However, bear in mind sometimes it's a statement. I got a ticket once years ago for going 40 in a 35. A child had just been killed by a speeding driver two weeks before and they were NOT playing games. There may be extenuating circumstances such as that which you may not be aware of. Just be careful and use reasonable discretion. Most police officers are damn good people just making a living.
