btw, my AAA safe driver school (don't ask) teacher, who was a really
cool guy and a good teacher, let on that he (almost) always drives 5 mph
over the speed limit. I've found around ten is the threshold for being
stopped and warned - under 10 over and I'm safe, 10-15 will draw
attention. Over that and I get excessively paranoid... but the car
feels great!
Of course, a warning, while being free, still wastes enough time to
eradicate several months worth of saved time from that extra few mph.
unrelated PS:
I flashed what I thought was a vehicle with unnecessarily obnoxious
driving lights today, turned out to be a adnoH being tailgated by a pick
up truck. Oh well.
