OMG! a bill on a chip-and-seal?! I've seen bad things happen at half that speed.
As to IN speeds. 65mph on interstate, 55mph on rural rds and highway in town, 45 on the outskirts, 35 in town, 25 school zones, 15 parks.
You can do about 7mph over without too much trouble but anything over the speed limit can get you a tick ($110 and I think they might have went up; double that in cone-zone, 2 ticks in a year gets you to the class) I have seen them pull just a few people out of a "convoy" which traveled over....
el prez,
I don't know how you traveled but I65 between Louisville and Indy was a drag race a couple of years ago and the police stepped it up big time. Lots of 100+mph busted...I69 is pretty empty so 70-75 a-ok (FT Wayne you gotta watch it) and I80 is super busy so they have all kinds of tricks up their sleeves (remote pressure pads (speed, weight...etc))
I have driven 135+~ once here but you just have to know where you can let it ride. I speed most of the time but know the rds very well and try not to stick out too much. The cops are super tough in construction zones too. I've seen bad things happen even at the speed limit there too. And motorcycle ones in school zones will nail you everytime.
I had a really bad rash of tickets a couple of years ago (6-8 or something like that.) I couldn't really afford it so I fought all of them. 100% success. just a bucket load of luck......you name it, it went wrong for them...
I travel a lot and ticket avoidance is a hobby of mine.
OH, and PA long ago (remember 55? I can't drive 55!
) have been hard on me though.
