Sorry to hear that man.

I got nailed in Southern Indiana - was doing 110 prior to getting clocked by State Police Radar. I leveled off around the bend and he got me at 86. Would have been a bad day. I was nice to him, he wrote me for 10 over. Simple fine.

Besides the obvious - "get a lawyer", I wish we could have better roads like the Autobahn and the rest of the world. If driver's licenses were harder to get, better roads, higher limits - I'd pay the extra $ to drive fast and safe knowing other drivers know what they're doing. (Because 120 really isn't that fast on the highway, when you're not driving reckless).

Best of luck! And get a Valentine1 Radar!

I got caught in IL doing 98 in a 55. Anything over 30 is auto a felony and reckless driving. Got a lawyer, he negotiated a deal with the state atty, no judge. Walked out with my lic and 4 hr class but it cost me.

Be glad you are not in Ontario Canada. If your caught doing 50km/hr over (31 mph), you lose your license for ten days and your vehicle is immediately seized and towed. You're left at the roadside to fend for yourself.

Absolutely, V1 is the best IMHO.

Lidatek too for laser.

Last speeding ticket was 6 days prior to buying the V1... now 2 years ago... can't believe how long I drove without a detector...

I own a V1. love it.

I recently got a ticket for 13 over.

Didn't have the V1 in the car.

Once you get a V1, you'll fall in love with the arrows. I have it hard wired in the Lotus and use the windshield mount for the other cars.
