I hope that you realize that I was talking about LASER and not radar. BTW, I saw that episode and they didn't test laser. Also I gotta say that that show is freaking awesome! Probably my favorite show on tv.

I didn't know a TRD CAI and TRD Exhaust could help you be faster than a cop car that is designed for high-speed chases. I should look into these mods (please note the sarcasm)!

1. No you dont.. You dont know how to drive fast among slower cars no mater how well you drive. I dont care if your an indy car driver and make millions from doing it. You cant control other people so, No you dont.

2. Who cares? If your daddy mommy or anyone you know has a rocket propeled car means poo poo so, Who cares?

3. Slow cars dont cause accidents. If you would slow down and take your time you would not be causeing problems.

This is real simple. you may have heard this, When in Rome do as the romans.
What that means is slow down when there are people around you. I do speed I cant say I have never had my car over the speed limit cause I have.
I live in Vegas and well for the most part im going very close to the speed limit, but on that rare occation that the freeway is empty or I head out of town I open it up.
If I see a car ahead of me I slow down if I ever hit something its going to be a wall not a car filled with people. Oh and I never speed in resi areas just to risky that some kid will steap out from behind a car or wall or just appear in the road so forget it.

Right on Jamia. What this thread is going to come down to is that those who believe they can get away with speeding and those who believe they can't...will continue to exchange pot shots rather than just agreeing that there is a fine line between exceeding the speed limit and "driving like an idiot." I think this happens on every automotive board known to man. There seems to be no escaping it.
