A few months ago, I was on I-95 north of Boston and got tagged doing 89 in a 65. This was a MA state trooper btw. It wound up being a $20 ticket for speeding and a $20 ticket for driving in the left lane (which apparently is only to be used for passing in MA).

And I thought I was lucky!

It's interesting, but evidently, the troopers in MA have discretion on the amount of the ticket. I know in TX, a similar ticket would have been north of $200.

BTW, glad to see you back SXY!!
