Default Speeding

Just curious if the police caught you doing 140 miles per hour in a 55 mph zone what would the consequences be? Would you go to prison? What kind of ticket would you get?

Default Your car will probably get towed away...

I don't know if you'll go to jail or not. But either way, you'll get one big ticket plus a fee to release the car from being impounded. That's my guess.

Default With broken turbos, you won't need to worry about that.

Actually my car stopped making those drill noises today, I think it had to do with the hot weather. Today the car drove perfectly normal power is all there. I think it strained something but they are not broken. I wont ever do that again.

Default In PA, you get all but 1 of the points added on your license

for going 26+ miles/hour over the speed limit. So, if you recieved a point from something else, you;d lose your license for a while (6 month minimum I think?)

If the consequences are so bad why do I hear about all these people doing 150 mph on the highway and on public roads. Even on this forum I have seen people post about how they went like 150 mph. So I thought it must be common and normal.
