Just a little PSA.
I was arrested Sept 11, 2010 for reckless driving in Sacramento. The DA later added a speed of over 100 charge. I was on my way to the race track of all places. Not to race, but to help someone else.
The speeds were between 70 and 106 as per the CHP plane and police report. 100mph in a corvette really does not feel fast at all.
Anyways the outcome 1 year later. 1 misdemeanor reckless 20 days work detail or jail. Easy choice there. $1300 fine 3 years court probation
The 20 days was reduced to 18 since I was arrested and taken to Sac County jail at the time I was stopped.
From what I have read online and seen first hand in court, people with DUI's receive lesser punishment. Public officials get off easy too.
The video is 12 minutes and rather boring but I'll post it anyways.

I thought it was a chopper too. Turns out it was an airplane. Never knew they could follow you like that in a plane.

Lol, hey at least I saw you use your turn signal and were courteous about it. Couple things, you may be the oldest member here with the lowest post count Also, I think the dui still costs more as much as 10k once its all said and done. Cool vette but its just not feasible to go that fast on streets but you obviously know that now ![[Razz]](tongue.gif)

This is how John Paul drives everyday, there have been a few meetings just about him with the CHP, on how to catch, many years ago.

Never seen the airplane. I assumed I was getting a ticket for passing the truck on Jackson highway.
The video starts out at I5 north to 50 east interchange. Ends on Excelsior (street sac raceway is on).
I never imagined the penalties would be so severe. Just wanted others to be aware of the consequences so they do not make the same mistake.
I seen the Tyreke Evans video also. I cant believe the other guy he was racing turned himself in. At least that is what I read online.
