A number of things, in my neck of the woods, being 30 mph over the posted
speed limit could get you in court and have your liscence suspended for 30
days. Probably a careless or reckless driving charge if your doing 100mph
(don;t know which, its a judgement call as far as I know) And a careless
charge can get your liscnece suspended for 2 years.  If in excess of 30mph of
the limit "fines at the discretion of the court". =) 
So, when the cop pulls you over, he will no doubt confiscate your liscense and
"see you in court". 
And then theres the insurance company to deal with after the fact when you get
classed in the extreme risk catagory.

In other words, don't get caught.
