There’s something about those long stretches of highway that makes the speed limit feel optional, doesn’t it? Let’s talk about what’s really happening on the roads.
If you've lived in Massachusetts all your life like I have, you already know everyone is always in a hurry to get somewhere.

Not trying to jinx anything but anytime I was ever caught speeding, I was never issued any ticket! Have I learned my lesson? Chances are slim let's put it that way.
MA. officers do it so their fingerprints are on the car in case anything happens to them during the stop as this was normal before the days of dashcams.
