100 in a 60 in my old car ('05 Scion tC) at 7:30 on a Saturday morning. The cop told me that anything over 100 is mandatory one week jail time, but since I was so far from home (Slidell, LA across the lake from New Orleans) he wasn't going to bring me that day. He told me to get a ride on my court date because I wasn't leaving for 7 days. I had my lawyer take care of it and never went to jail (for that at least ).

I've also gotten 85 in a 50. Hey, it is the expressway. The judge acted like that was crazy fast.

I also got pulled over once for following a cop (lights & sirens on) at 90 on the interstate. I was in a hurry to pick up my new plate for my new car on my lunch brake. He was going to an overturned car. I had stayed a good distance behind him until some moron in a Dodge truck didn't move over. The cop jammed on the brakes and forced the truck onto the left shoulder. I caught up with the cop while trying to slow down and he jumped across all three lanes to pull me over on the exit ramp.

Best ticket ever- 120 in a 55 + a bunch of vehicle violations at once. Cops harrassed the **** out of me and somehow the ticket was lost.

Worst ticket ever- 30 in a 20, only in friendswood would that cost 220$

100 in a 65 in my chevelle. Pulled over by a state trooper on I-45. Was doing a steady 125 when I saw him. Scary stuff locking up 4 drum brakes doing 125. Stopped me and asked me how fast I thought I was going. Said 94, gave me a 100. Barely 16 at the time. Stupid me. Oh, $260.

I did that before. On the Dallas tollway, I was speeding in my pickup and passed a unmarked policecar. It was a Lumina. I saw him comen up fast and I though that he wanted to race so as he got behind me.I took off faster and got all the way up to well speed was maxed out but motor was still going. Then I cut all 3 lanes to exit and he did as well. As I was paying the toll i realized the Dallas PD Patch on the side arm. Let me off with a warning I was 17 at the time.

The xA and xB both top out just over 100 with a 1.5L 4 Cyl, 108 HP Echo motor. The tC is "governed" (redlines) at 127 with a 2.4L 4 Cyl, 160 HP Camry motor. Unfortunately, if you reach 127 (which takes a while) it hits the rev limiter and drops you back down to 120 instantly. I learned to set the cruise at 125 and avoid that problem.

Here's what it used to look like, before the storm that is.

Got a 79 in a 35. I had just got the car the week before and was getting on it for the first time on a back road. never saw the cop until i pulled up to a red light and noticed the lights in my rearview mirror.

I'm not sure yet. I haven't really gone out anywhere yet. I like the roads here though.
