    Protest for what? Here's how you protest this and make it backfire. Don't "super speed." There. See how easy that is? You don't have to take time to write/type a letter. You don't have to take the time to stand in possible bad weather in front of the capitol. You don't have to see or talk to anyone. Just keep your right foot a little bit higher off the gas pedal. Later, QD.

    Yes, but I'd rather see the law repealed. Virginia did something similar to its citizens and after 3 months, they sued the state for unfair treatment of its citizens, which caused the law to be repealed. The super speeder law is simply to make money in the supposed name of safety, and it probably will save a few lives, but the law is misplaced justice to simply make a politician look good.

    Louisiana passed similar legislation back in 07, which will probably do a bit more for safety. The rolling roadblock law. Those who are caught lingering in the left lane, impeding traffic will receive a $175 ticket. This will generate the money needed AND improve traffic for citizens as well as safety.

    Having a potential $400 fine for being 15mph over the limit in some areas is crazy. Maybe 90mph+ would make sense, and certainly in residential areas it is understandable as others have said, but it is unnecessarily heavy handed and purely written to make money. Police officers are enforcers of the law; not armed tax collectors.

    Every single performance part and or modification it has was made in a factory somewhere.

    Again. Don't speed. Problem solved. Government isn't making that extra money you say they are after. To me it just seems easier to not speed than to complain about it. Later, QD.

    I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. I'm forming a petition.

    As long as you do something, I see nothing wrong with your complaining. It's complainers who don't do shit that suck. Props to you. Later, QD.
