hey I recently got so many speeding tickets I have a credit card just for lawyer and fine's thats how bad its gotten. so i really need advice on what can prevent me getting another one. I know some smart ass is probably going to say slow down or go the speed limit but when your late for work and alot other stuff thats really isnt an option. I did search it but couldnt find a actaul answer wheather getting a $300 radar detector or something at radio shack.so please i need help with this.

i got my Cobra from Target, it works great. but slow down, i think you'd rather be a little late to work then kill somebody or yourself speeding...

I never understand people like this. Why is it that going slow is not an option. Is it like in your DNA to drive like an idiot all the time?

I dont drive like a maniac at all just because i drive down to gf house who lives in diffrent state 2wice a week. and some how im pulled over for going 5 to 10 over the limit. Thats where my tickets mostly come from. They mostly give tickets to out of towners my most previous ticket i was just going with flow of traffic and its was a 65mph we were doing 70-75 this is midnight on week night and other two where Jersey residents i wasnt. and the state troopers excuse was that he couldnt have stopped us all and the other two cars didnt even slow down!! which really pissed me off i think that pretty fu**** up so am just really fed up with this i just wanted to make my 2hr long trip shorter.

well, there are many ways you can go about on this issue. i live in cali so i had to try out the best possible method ^^ anywho you can fallow the law (i know you choose not to sometimes but please dont flame) ^^ you can buy one of those radar detectors that everyone is talking about. but from personal use i dont like them. most of the cheep ones you can buy at like walmart detect the stupidest things like the radar from the stoplights and the door entrances. your best bet from those radar guns/ camaras is get a jammer. it cost you a bit around 300~1k installed but it saved my ass a lot of times. what it does is it takes thier signal, and gives them a bad one in return, meanwhile telling you to slow the hell down. then when the cop tries to do you again, the device lets it do its job so that the cop doesnt get suspicious. ^^ i have 1 in both my cars hope this helped.
