Now as for "deserving" a ticket, I could argue that all day. As I've proven in more than one thread. But that is a pretty damned expensive ticket for 15 over. I got hit $270 for mine, remind me not to speed in (or maybe even travel to) Connecticut.
He never explained why anything over 80 was cuffs to jail. He just said the law up there.................... and I really don't remember a dis-courteous cop except that one in 1970. I remember the date because I just bought a new Mustang. Some are very brief and business like so I just respond in a like manor and I don't give them any BS excuses.

That ticket may have been the standard rate for an out of state driver.
