ya know in most states anyone can exceed the speed limit if the car which is being passed is "BELOW" the posted speed limit. even if the the car you were passing was under the speed limit, the police officer is going to win this one, as its not reasonable or "normal" for someone to pass another car, or three, at that speed. I'd think 80-85 mph would be the limit on a pass. It's the common sense rule.

where do u stay in illinois,
my first ticket was about a month, not even after i got my license i was doing 90 on a 30 but there is a loophole, and it gives us (pple with heavy foot) a little chance to avoid a ticket if you got caught speeding with a radar gun, 1 question to the cop ask them when was the last time the radar was calibrated, it has to be calibrated every 2-3 months, and during the last stretches of that period the gun can actually giv false readings (info from a state sheriff) i got sum connects here too, thats how i get around most of the time when i got pulled over the gun was about 3 months since the last time so my speed was reduced to 30 mph over the speed limit instead of 60 if i can remember the increments of speed/violation was 6- 20 mph 21-40 41-60 60+ 60+ making it a big offense, and a big moving violation i ddnt get ticketed for racing with another guy either so next time u get pulled over try it, it wouldnt hurt you, you were gonna get a ticket anyways
