Never...cause I know how to avoid the COPS

*Knocks on wood*

Just because you didn't get any points taken off doesn't mean you won't get dinged on your insurance. Insurance companies look at the number of infractions and speeding is usually minor unless it's 50+ over and/or combined with a careless driving/DUI offence.

MTO demerit points stay on your record 2 years after offence date.

Insurance has access to your offences until 3 years after conviction date.

..and for those of you saying he was speeding/breaking the law/etc -- gimme a break, 125 in a 100 is a joke. Also, most of the time 'speeding' on its own is not dangerous (like in this case) - the enforcement resources available should be directed towards the chronic lane changers/tail gators/ppl who drive at 100 in the passing lane.

The 100 km/h limit was set in the 1970s as a conservation measure during the oil crisis. Before that, the limit was 115 km/h, even though cars back then had nowhere near the amount of safety features that today’s cars have.

Speed limits are determined by taking into account a number of factors and then a tolerance rate is calculated -- the speed limit may be lower than what is calculated though... It is on those streets/stretches that speed traps are set up at since the speed at which ppl feel comfortable driving on that stretch is usually much higher than the posted rate - which is why you see speed traps in the same spots over the years while others are never used (even despite volume).

Which model is it? Don't cops detect when you're using a radar detector? I've been looking at something like this for a while, considering I speed like all the time (and my luck is bound to run out eventually), but the legality issues always held me at bay.

no sir!! its got something called vg2 protection hehe... its an automatic stealth mode hehe..and by the way its the Beltronics Pro RX75 .. expensive.. i got mine from a shipping company in the states for 350.... i have sensors in the back and front bumpers .. and i just used a relay output from the main panel(which its hidden under the hood hehe) to trigger my check engine light to blink and door open chime to sound ... pretty useful i'd say but still has false alarms ...
