That's only 88 MPH :driving:I can see getting a speeding ticket, but impounding their car for 2 week? Yikes!

Not sure the truth of that one. I heard that joke many years ago --

Cop pulls over a lady doing exactly 43 miles an hour on the freeway. "Why so slow? The speed limit here is 65, minimum speed of 45!"
"Oh, I saw the big '43' signs and thought... "
"No, that's the name of the highway, Interstate 43. Wait, what's wrong with your passenger? She's white as a ghost!"
"... maybe because we just merged on from Interstate 94?"

I did once do the opposite - was driving a friend's car and had it up to 85 MPH before I remembered the speedo read in miles. It is a real story though and yes, stunt driving

When I listen to the people racing up and down Lake Shore Blvd (our closest main street) and hear them driving with cut outs for the exhaust I am quite happy for the legislation.

Looks like the creators of this legislation have seen ALL the Fast and Furious movies. I can't begin to count the number of times I've seen drivers popping wheelies around here! ๐Ÿคช

"Not only speeding ... add illegal or upgraded car modifications to increase performance with suspensions, style enhancements, or high-performance motors." I might be in trouble.
