Hell......Impound your car, and revoke your priviledges for oh say 5 years.......that would be my answer. Same thing with DUI.......you do it......throw them in JAIL..........for a LONG **** TIME.

I've never owned, one, and NEVER WILL. If I'm caught speeding, **** I broke the law........and DESERVE it.........

And with regards to the DUI statement above....I drink..........but I have NEVER gotten behind the wheel impaired........NEVER.....not as a kid, not as an adult.........NEVER.

I was clocked just last night doing 65 on the second street bridge. I pleaded for forgiveness, and was GRANTED it.......good thing......65 in a 35 is BAD MOJO.......

We can agree to disagree, no problem with that. You can purchase lots of things that are illegal when used wrong . It all comes down to freedom and personal responsibility. I don't own a radar detector, but if I wanted one it shouldn't be up to the government to decide whether I can have it or not. You're gonna shoot radar waves at me I should have the right to know about it.

Good thing the cop didn't take as hard a line on the law as you do, or you'd have a reckless driving ticket right now. From a common sense perspective as opposed to a strictly legal one, which should get your driving license suspended faster, 30 mph over the speed limit, or a passive electronic gadget in the car with you?

Laws may not be written to be broken, but they don't always make sense either. Fastest way to nonsensical laws is throwing too many of them on the books.
