I must admit, on A/M roads I do up to 90/95 miles an hour normally, thats cause they are open roads and I can see everything, there's no people etc and I have good reactional skills behind the wheel, but I'd never ever go above 35mph at most in built up area's, you just never know when a kid is gonna step out and blam, can happen to anyone!.... |
Hey look! I live in norway, it was 2 o'clock in the night, no cars... nothing! The road has 4 drivinglanes in each direction,
and the 80km/t zone was just around the corner... |

So it wasnt a built up area? then I sympathise a bit, if it has 4 driving lanes in each direction then it shouldnt really be a 30mph zone... |

thank you! and no.... there is no buildings near the road.... its a lagre bridge, and after the bridge you can choose where you wanna go, downtown, to another bridge or further on the highway. |

hell yeah! i got fined 3800 NOK (about 620 dollars, 325 pounds) for driving 112 km/h in the 90-zone. And now they've increased the fines even more.
I used to drive as I wanted, but now I keep checking my rear view mirror everytime I'm even slightly over the limit, made me paranoid. |
You got a 620 dollar fine for going 22km/h's too fast??

I'm so ing PISSED off righ now!!:whip: :whip:
I was driving in 81.1 Km/t (50.5 mph) in a 60 Km/t (37.3 mph) zone, and a ING NEW undercover police car, mercedes.... allways hated that car!!!!, took me!
They saw me speed up in the 50 (30 mph) zone.... and i was doing at least 110(70 mph), but when they took me, I was slowing down. MOTHER******!! At least 3 ing months with no driving, and a ticket on 7000 NOK (about $1100). If just didn't speed up like i did.. they wouldn't followed me!
The ugly police car, after catching me, he just drove behind me and waithed 4 me to speed up.... but i didn't.... just that one speedup!!! nothing more!!! F***************"#"¤*"#¤*"*#¤#"*¤*#"*¤!!!!!!
Someone else been in the same ?
BTW, i think Norway is the worst country driving too fast! |
that sucks |

| Some road restrictions are just to ing stupid. Straight roads with no houses or crossing point around shouldn't be 30 or 50 zones. |

| I got caught in Canada once. 160 something (over 100mph) in a 100 (60 mph). The cop felt bad for me because I was an American in a small car, and lowered the ticket to 140 in a 100 (about $300), I guess that's the maximum ticket without mandatory court appearance. |

| That does sound excessive to me but if that's the law in Norway perhaps you should have considered it before speeding. |

Europe is really harsh. I feel for you, man.
I got pulled over for going 93 in a 55 zone (Northern Parkway/Grand Central Parkway). Only got a $250 fine. However, I had to appear in court. I got 9 points on the license. Worst part is? Since I drive to Stony Brook from home every day of the week, I was actually running a bit late for my LAST final of the semester. :whip:
One more pull-over before December of this year and I can kiss my license goodbye. :( |

ok so i speed sometimes, but not excessively or that much more than 10-15mph really ever
and i'm sorry but doing anywhere near twice the speed limit is just ing ridiculous and inexcusable imo
and even if he didn't radar you...you were going 70 in a 30 zone
doesn't take a genius to see someone going that speed and know that they're going way to ing fast |
