    While true, it’s always the insurance and fees that get you. This is why I don’t understand states that post their speeding fines: they’re low enough to not stop anyone, but also don’t give the true cost

    Here in Massachusetts

    Your first speeding ticket … lose your Excellent Driver Plus Discount and see your premiums rise and stay higher for six years!

    Plus that kind of excessive speed will almost certainly also get you reckless driving

    For surcharge purposes, reckless driving is treated the same as DUI [or a major at-fault accident]. This could result in a huge insurance premium increase.
