: Over 100mph? In Taxachusetts, the ticket would equal this formula:
: First 10 mph over = $50 fine.
: EACH mile over after that = $1/per mile.
: 100mph in a 55 mph zone = $400 ticket.
??? 50+35 = 400?
: I think that after 20 mph over it becomes "reckless driving" and you can
: be arrested. Of course, if you have a 100+ mph speeding ticket, the insurance
: people JUST LOVE YOU! You will keep their expense accounts flowing....heheh.
