Yeah... this made me mad. The law is the law, but I think that SHP etc should be held to a higher standard even. Especially if they are going to give me a ticket.

In IL they made speeding 30+ MPH above the limit a Class A Misdemeanor. This means the officer is allowed to arrest you on the spot, and imprison you unless you can post bail. It also means a judge can issue up to a $5000 fine, and 364 days in jail.

I was arrested for going 41 over, but the judge let me off with traffic school.


The arresting officer can, if he deems fit, ALSO ticket you for Misdemeanor Wreckless Endangerment, and Driving too fast for Conditions. If you're witihin a school zone, get ready for a seriously heavy book to be thrown at you. There are areas in Chicagoland where a highway passes through (over) a school zone, and the troopers LOVE to use that to their advantage.
