Default Getting pulled over today

I got pulled over today doing 100 in a 70. Luckily the cop pulled me over because he "estimated" i was doing 90. Even more lucky he wrote the ticket for 80 in a 70 so i could apply for the diversion and get it off my record.

The best part about it all was the cop said he drives 60,000 miles a year on average (for the past 5 years) and has never seen or even heard of a s2000. Ha he said he thought it was a miata at first . He asked me a bunch about it and i think the car is what got me lowered to 80mph.

Sounds like you got lucky. I seem to remember that you have a big problem if you get popped for going over 100.
