I'm just glad he's not driving a WRX or STI. If an 86 can get away from him like that, imagine how easily a turbo awd would.
To the op, I was going to extend my sympathies, and in a way I'm still somewhat sympathetic. But, you earned this one.
Do I speed? Technically, yes, but I have a simple guideline: unless I'm doing so to keep moderately at the speed of traffic, NO sustained speeding over 10 mph (1.6 km per mile, so, 16kph) in zones where there are cops, which is just about everywhere. Otherwise I stick to speed of traffic or a bit over & stay in the fast lane. Now, I'm not Canadian, but here in the US, we've got some strict speeding laws here too, so I'm not speaking from a very permissive area.
Take this lesson & take it like a man, and when you lose your license, accept that you deserved it & be glad you can earn it back instead of being permanently barred from being relicensed. Driving is a privilege, not an enumerated right. So, while getting it back, realize you've been in the wrong & commit to changing your driving habits and learn to be safer... Much safer.
After all, you ARE controlling a vehicle that can deliver more killing energy than a machine gun. Consider that too.
