I thought it was 30 over? One day in jail for every extra mph above 30 excess.

There is always at least one in a crowd. If I started telling stories about how fast I have gone in specific vehicles over the years it would bring chills to your spine - just did to mine. I have mellowed out over the years though but I still enjoy a 150+ burst every so often (and I am not talking on a track).

Traffic lawyers can work miracles. Even with an 'alleged' 2x the speed limit citation. In CA, it all depends on the circumstances surrounding the bust.

It occurred to me that no one besides AB knows how fast he was going!

Loca police in Pennsylvania don’t have radar. They do have VASCAR, etc but it doesn’t sound like any of that equipment was set up in advance.

The police car chasing him likely didn’t have enough time to pace him... so how could anyone prove he was going 100 mph?

Go Steelers!
In CA, a traffic lawyer would have a field day with that citation.

3 hours of community service could be great for all involved!

No, just someone that doesn't drive 100 in a 45 zone, or assume that everyone else has or does. If you do, then congratulations for being irresponsible and risking other's lives.

The obsession with "speeding" and the enforcement of speed limits in the US has always been mind-boggling to me. You must think people are dying like flies out on the autobahn in Germany.

If you don't know how to drive you can kill yourself driving at 40 or 100, doesn't matter. Rest is just funding for the local municipalities.

As long is it's not a congested road or area I really don't see a problem with it. Like others have said a short acceleration and de acceleration with no one around puts no one at risk other then yourself.

The average driver in the US is not a good driver, period. It is way too easy to get a license here and there are virtually no training requirements, and the fines for not being a good driver are not enough to deter someone from being distracted, nor are there laws to help prevent distraction. One look at the requirements for driving in most European countries will explain it.

I agree with you 100%; what you pointed out is part of a larger picture. Horrible driver education creating bad drivers, who then need to be tightly supervised by law enforcement, and that supervision ends up in points and tickets which makes them more expensive to insure.

It's a similar/parallel paradigm to the whole healthcare/pharma scam in my mind.
