I did get a ticket once on a motorcycle doing 39 in a 35 (really?!?).

It may be I'm more diligently looking for "hot spots" when driving a hotter car, or that I don't tend to do "really stupid" things in them on busy streets, reserving most of my antics for back country roads or empty stretches of freeway.

According to some driving a top trim Corvette, Mustang, Camaro, etc must be a horrible ordeal of non stop pull overs. Expect to see any in a bright colour followed by at least 3 cruisers and a horde of people trying to race them.
