Even if your 'vette is slow it's still many times cooler than a 6 cyl. mustang.

go in to court and see if you can bargain it down. Ask for mercy. Tell them the accelerator stuck. Lie your as off.

Never know they may dismiss or reduce that fat fine. Its worth taking half a day off work.

got a ticket doing 49 in a 35 zone in my dads 71 skylark.
when the cop asked "how fast do you think you were going?" i thought for a second ,should i tell him my speedometer was at about 60? no way! "i don't know, i was doing about 40"

8 hours of traffic school and $150 later, no points on record
