For at least a decade I have not had a speeding ticket. For that same decade I hadn’t owned a sports car. In that time I have just nodded my head when my wife has been getting speeding tickets and taking driving school. In the 3 months I’ve owned this car I got a speeding ticket at one of those intersection cameras. I thought that was only if you ran a red light. I found out otherwise. Tonight, I’m the only car on the road. The police officer clocked me going 55 in a 45. I told him a short version of what I just covered and after awhile he came back and issued me a warning. I was so relieved. I’m glad he assessed my situation and gave me an early b day gift. Oh yeah my 11 year old son was with me. I’m not sure if that helped.
I can’t be so relaxed in this car anymore. I will have to be very focused on the speed. Right after getting pulled over tonight, I drove away real slow. I accelerated from the light as if I was driving my old Tundra. As if I was trying really hard to keep my 13.5 mpg in the truck. I quickly realized how boring that was. Driving the stang this way is a damn SIN!
The wife was quick to say, you need to trade that thing in. Ummm.....
You guys have any tips other than just slowing down on how to keep the speed down?
