In NC 80+ and 15 over the limit (at 55 and higher limits) is reckless driving and loss of license for 30 days, 60 days for 2nd offense. I'm not sure, but I think it only goes to a felony if someone is hurt or killed.

Im not sure about other places but here in Mississippi, they could take you to jail for any misdemeanor....a ticket is a courtesy...meaning they can give you the ticket instead of taking you to jail. I've got a ticket for 83 in a 55, but I'd be willing to bet that had I been doing 100+ yeah I would have went to jail.LarryMow-93 V6 Firebird-No engine mods-Z06 Wheels, '98 Taillights,'98 Center Console-SLP fan switch-BMR STB, F/R Swaybars, PHB,LCA,Torque Arm, SFC, Bilsteins, Eibachs....www.cardomain.com/ride/2489691/1

i just heard about this one the past week or so on the radio.. now in texas effective 1st oct. 95mph and over no ticket dismissal via defensive driver course. you will pay the fine. period. and according to a friend of the family who's in law enforcement. 20mph over any limit you can be arrested, car impounded, etc. .. just depends on what kind of day the cops having. but if there's a helicopter overhead, like happens a lot here in san antonio, more than likely you're hosed and soon to be needing an attorney.previous- '82 recaro. current-bone stock '02 t/a 6sp base model.

In Florida speed in excess of 30 mph over the posted speed limit requires your presence in court. Reckless driving is a 3rd degree felony and its loosely defined.
316.192 - Reckless driving
(1)(a) Any person who drives any vehicle in willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property is guilty of reckless driving.
(b) Fleeing a law enforcement officer in a motor vehicle is reckless driving per se.
(2) Except as provided in subsection (3), any person convicted of reckless driving shall be punished:
(a) Upon a first conviction, by imprisonment for a period of not more than 90 days or by fine of not less than $25 nor more than $500, or by both such fine and imprisonment.
(b) On a second or subsequent conviction, by imprisonment for not more than 6 months or by a fine of not less than $50 nor more than $1,000, or by both such fine and imprisonment.Tracy, 97 Formula, pretty much stock.

Here in Wisconsin if you are caught soliciting a prostitute the police will arrest you and take your car for GOOD. You do not get it back.
A friend of a friend got nailed on his Harley, he spent $10,000 in lawyer fees trying to get his custom Harley back after the cops took it.
Could you imagine losing your car over something like that, or speeding?!?
