Holy mother of Christ, how tf is this even possible:
Also, they mention having a limiter to prevent speeds exceeding 5mph over…I have my adaptive cruise set that way, I’d love to have that as a general option also. I haven’t gotten any tickets but I have caught myself going a bit fast at times, having an automatic limiter would be convenient.
How do you get this many tickets and not be arrested?
The fact they can afford 46k in tickets tells you exactly why.
Or keep your license. You get enough points in my state, and they just take your license. It's not that high either, only like 20 points, and lots of violations are 2 or 3 points. You fuck up a few times in a 3 year period, and you're walking.
How tf do you average more than one school zone speeding ticket a day?
My vehicle has an option in it's cruise control settings to automatically adapt to speed limit changes
I have mine set to do that also. I really like it. I have to take several eight hour drives a year and it’s surprising how much less exhausting it is when I get back home after having a car with those adaptive cruise and lane assist features.
