got a ticket in fl.
i was driving in the fl keys when i accelerated to pass slower traffic who were in the left lane and then i look up and i see a fhp car. i knew right then i was nailed. sure enough i see him pull out into traffic and pull me over. my question is how do they assess how much $ each ticket is in fl. i know that going 14+ over is a certain fee but i was going 68 in a 45 (apparently). my ticket was 171, i say i was going about 63 but by saying i was going 63 would that essentially lower my ticket, if not ill just pay the fine as is. and of course go to driving school.

I don't have anything useful to add here but never speed in the keys. :/ They are ruthless.. of course 68 was just asking for it (even tho it was passing). Just be glad you didnt hit a Key Deer..
thats the most horrible part of driving down there, a hour+ at 45 in the max. Its cruel..
thankfully I didnt get at ticket when this was taken (everglades)
they dont write tickets for speeds like that

To tgomaximase03,
Please don't write in Caps... Us org. members don't like replys in caps...
Thanks...
Also, Yes I live in MIA, and yes the FHP is a pain in the azz... I hate them,... But as far as Miami cops go, I ran into some cool azz ones... Just be real with them and they will be real with you... Never try to BS a ticket, just say you were speeding and next time you'll take it easy... Maybe he might let you go... My bros a cop and he says he lets people go all the time, as long as they don't cry and try to BS him...

Thanks for starting this thread, I got pulled over twice a couple of weeks ago and got a ticket I still have to take care of. Miami police are pretty cool, they let me off about a year ago. FHP and Plantation police are the worst.

FHP was so so cool to me!
About a month ago I was doing 110 Mph and I got busted, he pulled me over and ask for my licence and registration. He asked me if I was racing that other car that got away, I told him I was late for work. I gave him my license but I couldn't find my registration. So I'm about to hand him my old one and hope he don't notice, as I am handing it to him he goes "Sir you know your bumper light are white, those are illegal and your turn signals are white also. So do me a favor change them and slow down, HAVE A NICE DAY!!!!!!"
He let me off! What a nice guy. All that time I was thinking "man who is going to bail me out on a sunday morning!"

a) Check out www.speedtrap.org
b) If you think Floridians have it bad with their highway patrol, you have not run into the gauntlet that is IL, IN, MI, OH and WI. Out of the 5, OH is the worst followed by MI, IN, IL, and WI. All 5 states are notorious for nailing speeders. IL and IN have unmarkeds that look like average vehicles.

IL from the MO border to Effingham on I-57 is just as bad. The worst part of that stretch is around Cairo. There are so many hills, curves, and off ramps that the troopers and county mounties can hide in that area. Couple that with the fact that IL also has some LS-1 powered Z28s and some Mustang GTs in the fleet with dual firing radar and the outcome ain't always pretty.
Also, IL is notorious for doing the Wolfpacks during the summer months.

- on I-88 west of Naperville Road there is a gray Pontiac Grand Prix 4 door that is being used by the state troopers.
- On I-355, south of I-290, there is a black Camaro state trooper car.
- Around I-355 Army Trial Toll Booths, airplane survaillence is used to monitor speed, I was catch by one of these 2 years ago.
