No one claimed otherwise that I've read. However, the OP wants to know about speed traps, etc. so that he/she can speed all the time; not just on occasion.

Get up earlier and you won't need to speed at such a rate that you get stopped and ticketed. Normally you can go 5 to 10 over the speed limit on the highway (not a city street) without incurring the wrath of the trooper.

I don't think that English is this poster's first Language and I do think he/she is about to hit us with some Spam.:curse:

Jim.
Definitely, a quick google search of key phrases brings back at least one other forum this has ended up on.

I may be wrong, but this looks like the new wave of spam being posted to boards.
I expect a 'helpful' follow up (from another new poster) offering a solution to the problem, and kindly linking to a web site that has just what we are looking for "at a great price".

Perhaps a mod could do a little digging, the email address used to register etc.

I will be happy to admit I am wrong . . .

I think you are 100% right (I did my digging as soon as I saw the post), but the 2nd poster hasn't come along yet.
I didn't do the deed on the OP, but my finger is on the trigger. Past performance is a good indicator of future posting.

And everyone seemed to be having such fun.

true and it's cheeky, but expected, so any new poster will get binned, even if they could post a link...

We all speed, but he's freely admitting to " ... speeding like “THE FAST ... AND THE FURIOUS”".

He's better off getting arrested before he gets killed - or kills someone else. Did no one see that recent post by someone showing the significantly higher driver death rates here in the states....? Get him off the road ...
