How do you guys speed?

I just can't seem to do it. Every time I try to go above the speed limit I get so paranoid that every car I see come ahead or behind me is a fucking cop.

There's things like Waze and radar detector for confidence.


If I'm doing a top speed run I usually speed down the street 10-15 over the limit. Checking for cops but also if I miss then at least it's a minimum ticket. Then I turn around and floor it.

1: Learn what roads are policed
2: Creap, no one will bother you for doing 1 over, or 1 over that etc
3: Tail someone who's speeding, learn from a pro
>>
Can you see the car markings and have good eyesight? after a while you get a sort of sixth sense about these things, and learn popular speed trap spots. But you probably will get tickets until you learn them

That said you don't have to speed. I do it because its fun but stay in the slow lanes and be on your merry way
>>
>>17851162
Around here we have a shitton of country roads which are barely checked by police as too few people pass through but at the same time you can't you that much faster than 100km/h because of the turns. Therefore even if I run into police the ticket won't be that expensive.
I also have to drive only 15min to get to an unrestricted section of an autobahn but top speed runs get rather boring with not enough power.

well anon, you put your foot on the gas, although in a manual car you have to consciously rev it high or put it into the next gear, so it's easier to follow the speed limit in a manual car, whereas in an automatic it's braindead easy to speed and can just happen so easily

Traffic enforcement in the USA just isn't what it used to be 10 years ago. Cops only care about DUI enforcement anymore.

As long as you are not significantly, dangerously faster than other cars around you there is zero risk of being pulled over. Exceptions are classic small town speed traps and rural highways at night.

Nighttime is always more risky, cops are harder to spot and they are out in force to catch drunks.
>>
>>17851162
i live in the middle of nowhere near a county border, the police from either force can't be bothered to come this far out to catch some speeders

i don't speed though, moral is just find where police don't go if you're desperate

It all has to do with the way driving in general has changed lately.
>no thank you waves
>everyone tries to shove their way out
>tailgating in general
>more immigrants driving than white people
>and they didn't get taught to drive properly

Seriously it doesn't matter how poor a minority is, they typically always drive. No matter how poor or badly trained - they're on the road. Priorities...
>>
>>17851462
Rednecks in brotrucks and old white people, white women, ect drive like shit too. If anything illegals drive their shitty $1000 compact trucks 5mph under to avoid bein pulled over and deported.

Its really because a speeding ticket nets maybe a $50-$250 fine while a DUI can net $10,000-$30,000 fines or more. Rent seeking police departments are not going to waste time enforcing anything else.

It's such a pain in the ass driving behind illegals. You can always tell they're illegals because they have out of state plates (usually Pennsylvania in my state) and they drive 5-10mph under the speed limit in their rust bucket shitboxes

Like others have said, speeding is not as big of a priority as reckless driving, DUI, and other major vehicle code violations.

I was stopped at 100+ for both of my tickets and got 85 for them, which is essentially just traffic school and 400 bucks.

When I wrecked my car, all the cops cared about was my intoxication. When I came up clear, they were cool and even gave me a ride back home (despite the fact that I obviously flipped it while hooning)

Just dont be wreckless and if you do get pulled, be respectful. Also, dont exceed 15 mph because the cops can actually fuck you over for that

Where I live, the speed limits are so unreasonably low that everybody speeds. Cops don't care unless you're going way too fast. The majority of the cars on the road are speeding if traffic permits, so for me, a lot of the time just following the speed of traffic will technically be speeding.

You have to realise it doesn't matter. Nobody is going to you pull you over for 10 over unless you're doing something else wrong.

You don't have to speed if you don't want to though, it doesn't matter at the end of the day.

You gotta know the roads and where police sit.
most of the roads around me are 100km/h zones but i will generally sit at 150km/h and slow down to 105km/h in the areas where police normally sit.
otherwise if i see a cop go past me by time he stops from 100km/h and turns around im long gone and there is little to no chance of them getting your number plate, they rely on seeing the car again.
>>
>>17851186
>no one will bother you for doing 1 over
They do, and they give tickets for it. Not to mention the automatic ticket issuing cameras all over Europe. Most of the time I go 10kph over the limit already and people still pass me. Not gonna chance it.
>>
I just pay off the cops since I live in a shady Eastern European country. Equivalent of $50 USD will get you out of a speeding ticket typically.

I only do 9 over exactly. I've gone straight past cops without noticing because I was being oblivious, still didn't get pulled over.

tbqh, I think it's due to me not driving a sports car and due to my veteran plates, so ymmv

Speedometers have a margin of up to 10%, i.e. if you're doing 100km/h indicated you're doing potentially as little as 90km/h.

If you did 101 in a 100 you literally couldn't get fined for it because the speed camera would pick you up as doing less than 100.

In europe you have only speed cameras. Which are way more deadlier than super obvious cops that cant even notice a difference between +-10kmh

A speedcam will fucking terminate you if you drive 1 kmh too fast. My father literally drove 56 instead of allowed 55 and got spotted by a hidden camera. 1 week later he got a bill of 125 moneys.

Be happy that you got more cops than speed cams (i think?)
At least they could close an eye or not notice.

On my route to work there is a 2 or 3 mile stretch that is 30mph, but depending on road conditions you can easily do almost 50 down it and there are almost never camera vans. It knocks a good few mins off my travel time if I gun it down there

Did you even read the thread? There's people here who are a okay with paying $125 speeding ticket, or even a $30 speeding ticket . Do you even care that it goes into your fucking record? If you have a job that depends on you having a drivers license you can just about be fired for not keeping a clean record. Is a few minutes earlier worth the ticket?

Speed limit is the fucking speed limit, it doesn't matter if its fair or not, you have to follow it. Not following it puts everybody else on the road at risk.

It seems you never learned logic, because you can't draw objective conclusions from subjective arguments.
That is, it's fine to argue that there's people who can't afford or don't want to pay tickets or who have jobs that would be negatively affected by this, but you also have to accept this is not everyone. By definition, this means a whole group of people who won't care that it "goes on their record" or don't have a job where this is a factor.

Concluding your (subjective) arguments with "you have to follow it", and "puts everybody else at risk" is disingenuous, at best.

Why, because physics determined that the speed at which you are at the lowest risk always corresponds to the posted speed limit where you are?
Because that would be a real fucking coincidence.

i live in canada, dude

it's a commonly accepted fact you can do 10kmph over the limit up to 20kmph on the highways and the cops wont bother you.

ive been doing 20 over the limit and listening to headphones (both ears) before. a cop saw me and motioned to take them off - otherwise he just moved on lol

So if the speed limit is 65mph I can do between
10,065 - 20,065 mph and the cops won't bother?

I have the opposite, I never pay any attention to the speedo and when I do glance at it I'm always 20 over.

PA drivers in NJ are fucked. Either they're tailgating you at 30 over, or you're tailgating them at 15 under. Pa highways off of 80 might as well be the autobahn.
