How to Avoid a Speeding Ticket

24 Jun 2007

Obviously, you could just not speed, however, I am placing these tips here mostly for the benefit of my colleague (whose recent acquisitions have granted him some new bad habits), but I imagine there are a few others out there who might find this helpful.

  1. Drive within 5-10 mph of surrounding traffic

  2. Try to stay in the middle of the pack

  3. Find a “rabbit”

  4. Do not change lanes frequently, tailgate or otherwise drive aggressively

  5. Avoid the fast lane

  6. Watch for cut-outs and modulate your speed accordingly

  7. Don’t speed when you are the only car on the road

  8. If it’s ok legally, get a radar detector

  9. If possible, drive a nondescript vehicle

  10. Be aware that appearances count
