Guys, be careful. Just take your time getting home. The way it's looking I might be spending Christmas in jail for a reckless driving ticket, 88 in a 65. Cop caught me on 66. Another guy here said his wife got caught on 81. Just take your time getting home, and be careful. The cops have been out in the masses for the past 2 months. Have a great thanksgiving, and happy holidays.

it's really not hard to get up to 88 in a WRX, and my record is spotless. it was also a deserted road, 11:30 at night on a thursday night. i dont think i was going 88.. but see what happens...

i got 91/65 on 81. Nothing on record. $500 fine but dropped to $150 + $30 court fees, for being a poor college student.
I was just very polite, and commented that i had no previous record blah blah blah.

My old roommate got an 87 in a 35, and still kept his liscense in Blacksburg.

No jailtime for you
