I second all of the above except for any regarding going over a certain speed. I routinely do MUCH higher than the speed limit usually do 85-95 or so on the highway. For some reason my GPS has clocked me at a high speed of 158 =) -- tap tap -- think it must be going bad.

The fast lane is for passing or driving fast, except in traffic of course. The only problem is that there is usually someone dumb enough to pull in front of you. I think its fair to drive as fast as long as 1.) you car safely allows for speed and 2.) you have enough smarts to control it. Driving dangerously is one thing, but Germans dont seem to have a problem doing 120 in the fast lane -- why should we?

Haven't had any tickets in the last 7 years and I usually fly. I got busted for no seatbelt after pulling out of the grocery the other day though. =(

I am considering system (supposedly illegal) to deflect radar that my friends has.... no idea if it works or not. Any one using these devices?
