DAMN LEXUS!!!!). a cop was going the other way and he busted a U-turn and pulled me over a few seconds later. got clocked at 94 on a 65. he mentioned to me that 1 more mph and it would of been $350 instead of the $208 i was getting.

car_lost - I know how you feel minus getting caught... the GS430 is WAY too smooth and I usually have no sense of how fast I'm going unless there are other motorists around

I got a lawywer which cost me $2000 in hopes to get the reckless reduced or a slight chance of having it dropped. Anything over 90mph in VA is jail time for most. The rule of thumb is for every 1 mph over 90 = 1 day in jail! 85+mph chances of losing license is very high. I'm glad I wasn't doing 3 more mph!
