Jail for speed over 100
My understanding is that speed over 100 is grounds for a trip to jail. So how often does that happen? Assume for purposes of this question no other complicating variables (alcohol, other drugs, bad driver attitude, contraband in car, etc.). Just 100+ on an open highway.
TIA.

Who told you that 100+ was grounds for a trip to jail. It's an infraction, you do not go to jail for infractions.

Probably depends on the location, 100 on the 10 in Mojave or 100 on the 5 in East LA.

You should probably avoid Virginia like a rare strain of Asiatic Airborne Scab-flaking Gonorrhea.

We were blasting down the 58 between Tehachapi and Bakersfield in my friends Ford GT at about 160+. He backed off because he said I looked nervous. I just told him I was wondering how to get home after they impounded his car. He let me drive home I was more sensible - only 150.

I'm guilty of this myself...not bragging, just stating a fact of idiocy on my part.
About 10 years ago or so, I was clocked going 102 MPH around 3 or 4 AM on 5 N. Not too far where the cattles and stench reside, the following happened: Issued a ticket and got back on the road. Knowing my license would be suspended, I went to court. Paid the fine and requested permission of being able to drive myself to work and back home. My request was granted. The suspension lasted 30 days. I had Geico at the time and they dropped my coverage a few weeks later. Insurance rate went up. The officer cited me, "Exceeding 100 mph" and I don't recall the vehicle code number. I think he could've made my day worse by impounding my car and told me to kick rocks on finding a way home. I was respectful the entire time and he was done within 10 minutes. I'm covered by Geico again. I'm older and wiser and drive like an oldie. If I'm late (whether by my actions or mother nature) to get somewhere, then I'll be late. Not worth going through that again. Sent from my LG-H918 using Tapatalk |
