did your state make the list?

[Brian Jones]

In Connecticut, for example, state police gave out 2,052 speeding
tickets during last year's holiday weekend, nearly double the
usual amount, according to Sgt. Paul Vance of the Connecticut State
Police.

Connecticut has some of the most expensive tickets in the nation
if you push the pedal above the posted speed limit of 55 mph,
Vance said, with more than a little pride in his voice.
(It's 65 mph in some places.) If you get stopped going 71 mph to 75 mph,
the ticket will cost you $198. But hit 81 mph to 85 mph,
and you'll pay a stiff $279. Go above 85 mph and you'll have
a date with a judge.

Man...we in CT never get a break on the roads...not only does
The pavement suck...and its mostly 55mph everywhere, they get
You with laser all over.
