On the motorway i tend to stay on 90 or below.Ive had a few close calls but, the stupid thing is i knew they were there.

If im overtaking someone il hit naughty side of speed limit not really purposely but because of the shear power my car has. As soon as i hit the loud pedal burble turbo whistle followed major stomach rush.
I wouldnt be doing a ton in most cars let alone a paxo if you valued your life, one thing fails, youFail bigtime.

Also don't start threads about you speeding
Many people will burn you for it because they have never ever sped in their life:flamed:
Never been close to getting caught btw

i'v had too many close calls to count. The police are just tax collectors. stay on alert and watch out. They are sneaky bastards but you can usually smell em at the last second.

There's always one person who has to say something like that aswell though isnt there?
I have 3 points for speeding and felt like an arsehole when i got caught. As of then i cant tell you how many times ive stopped in a middle of a road to get out and argue with someone thats too close behind me, just because i was doing the limit. Speeding is wrong end of. Its the main thing im concious of when driving.

18th December 2008, 13:27
i just drive to what i think is acceptable and have no worries in doing so...
for instance this morning on the m42 i was doing 80mph for a good half hour before islowed it down to 70 as it started to get busy..
however
if it is really quiet on the roads sometimes i wont realise how fast i am going and all of a sudden be slowing down as i am almost going around a ton... i don't speed on purpose or to get anywhere quicker sometimes just don't realise....

yeh couse, everyone pretends they dont go a mile an hour over the speed limit, and that the only poeple who do speeds are absolute idiots, like lil boy racers. You go on the mottor way u have a few lorrys in the slow lane with a few cars mixed in, the other lanes are all over 70. Reality is a sick world.

agree with you there mate tbh....if i was on an empty motorway at 3am i honestly can not say i would stick to 70mph all the way home...
i speed from time to time but not in a wreckless manor or in which is risky to myself or others...

So your saying i only feel bad because i have the points and i had to pay? no thats not the case.
I didnt realise i was doing it. For a start i was supposed to be in school, it was near a primary school going down a very steep hill at about 1 in the afternoon. My sister was in primary school at the time so i realised what a complete wanker i was being.
If you actually knew me then you would know im not like that. I have my morals and i know whats wrong and what isnt.

you would never speed again?not even a tiny little bit?
Grant
18th December 2008, 13:58
Like you said on motorways when you're able to do so then yes, but im talking about when i got caught, its a completely different situation. A built up area, a primary school, 39 in a 30 zone. Never again, my work and everything i need are very near to where i live and most areas are very built up so theres no need to speed.

18th December 2008, 14:23
never gone above 80, don't intend to unless its a track day or something. But its bester to speed on motor way when its quiet rather then on 30mph roads! any one that deliberately speeds on a 30 deserves the book thrown at them.

Speed doesn't kill, unnecessary speed does:y:
Open motorway or maybe duel carriage way:y:
Built up area or busy roads:n:
If you like razzing around small areas save it for the track:cool:

agreed i think to say you have stuck to every speed limit since you started driving is a stuid thing to say because its blatent bullshit everyone speeds at times the idiots are the one driving like nutters. tbh slow drivers seem to be the ones that almost cause crashed cause you have some slow twat on a back road and evryone is trying to overtake them almost seen plenty of collisions due to slow driving.

fair enough speeding near a school during school hours is fucking stupid if its safe to speed why not. aslong as your not ragging it.
