Surprisingly I have actually heard of this happening quite often or I've heard of cops writing a ticket for only going 2-7 mph over the spead limit instead of 35 or whatever it would be because I believe it's a $250 fine for every 5 mph over at least in NJ

MK4 wrote That makes no sense? It's obviously going to be harder to control a car when it's going faster and not only will it be harder, the damage will be greater. You could swerve off the road and hit a bunch of kids walking on the side-way and kill all of them because you "couldn't control the car", but if you were going a little slower, under that speed, it would be easier to control and maybe you might only hurt a couple, not kill them. Not to mention, you're going to prison either way and I'd love to see you use that excuse in court "Sorry judge, but I didn't think it would make a difference if I went over the speed limit because I wouldn't have been able to control the car anyway".


If you're going faster, it's going to take you longer to react and longer to hit the brakes. It will also take the brakes longer to stop the car because the wheels are turning faster, so more force will need to be applied to slow them down. Do you even have a basic understanding of physics or the human body? How can a rabbit jumping onto the road cause a serious accident if you're going 20 MPH? I also find it hilarious that the person speeding, couldn't even convert miles and kilometers. It really shows their intelligence accurately.


At this point, I think you're just trolling to be honest, like where do I even begin with this one. First of all, you have to take the victim's body into consideration here, the damage will be far more visible at a higher speed, so it will be likely that their family wont even be able to recognize them. Secondly, it's a lot worse for you in court, trying to claim it was "an accident" when you well over the speed limit. As I said before, you wont have any time to react at 80 mph, where-as at 60, you will be more aware of your surroundings and actually able to see what's going on. Perhaps, you could have swerved out of the way or the victim would have had time to jump to safety?

The faster you're going, the more damage you will cause. It's not worth someone dying because you're so selfish that you want to get to your destination a little earlier.


You're so dumb. The first statement makes perfect sense. A car is not hard to control, even going faster. Because you could be speeding on one road but going that same speed as the limit on another road. It doesn't mean it's harder to control. It's only hard to control driving fast if you suck at driving.

On the second statement. How could a rabbit jumping on the road cause an accident in any situation speeding or not. If you swerve for a rabbit you're a fool. And what are you on about with converting miles and kilometers? I never mentioned miles and kilometers or attempted to convert anything, are you senile?

And to the third statement, I don't know how someone so pessimistic can live a happy life. You seem to always expect the worst. Just because you speed, that does not mean you'll ever hit anyone. I've been driving for years and never been in an accident and I'm always going 5-15 over. Hell, I drive 80 on the highway with state troopers behind me, and I move out of the way so they can go by even faster.

You sound like a hypocrite, as if you've never gone over the speed limit once. For any reason ever. Without thinking you're going to kill someone for it? Lmao, Either that or you don't even drive, and it's easy to sit there and say never to speed.

Always be respectful to the police, most likely they will be nice if you act nice to.

Why would you even drive at double the limit in a 45? Speed limits are there for a reason and its people like you that are causing so many deaths on the road! Can understand maybe 10 over the limit if you are in a mad rush but 90 in a 45, you don't deserve a license

Xerath wrote There is nothing wrong with what I was doing. The road is literally a straight road for about 5 miles. I usually do that speed.


Really? So... The speed limit signs are just suggestions then?

If there was nothing wrong with what you were doing, then why were you pulled over in the first place?

You're actually an idiot if you think doubling the speed limit is actually okay.

How do I sound like a hypocrite? Where did I say that I do speed? Or that I don't speed? I just stated that It was pathetic that you were trying to justify speeding, as if it was acceptable. I just drive to school and back and sometimes to parties and what not. It's very easy to follow the speed limit on the roads and there's no need to be driving over the limit.


What are you on about with the first statement? The faster a car is going, the harder it is to control. Not to mention environment, such as rain, water, snow etc. And if you have a fast car, you could have rear wheel drive which would make it even harder to control.

On the second statement, If you'd actually read the original post and a couple after, OP tried to convert miles to Kilometres and went full-retard with his conversion, so I was using this as an example that drivers who speed aren't the brightest stars. As for the rabbit, maybe a sheep or person would be a better example. Irrelevant, the point is still there. If you're driving faster, there's less chance of you stopping due to reactions, braking and other factors.

I don't see how it's hard not to expect the worst when it's likely to happen. There's no excuse for speeding, you're needlessly putting your life and others in danger for no reason.
