Don’t quote me on it but I believe in TX going 20 mph over the posted speed limit can be considered reckless endangerment and an arrestable offence.

But they don’t come by, months later and after you paid the fine, to arrest you.
It’s not that the super speeder law is wrong in principle. It is the way it is administered.
What is LOTS more unfair on the face of it is the “california” right turn tickets at red light cameras in, of all places, California, that cost in excess of $400. You could come to an “almost” complete stop and roll for 10 feet, barely moving, before actually turning and you will get the ticket in the mail.
This is all about the “not knowing what you are being fined AT THE TIME” part. I hate that when dealing with the state for something like this one must live out their life worrying about some other shoe that may drop. It makes you a sort of psychological “ward of the state”.
It is not what happens to people in a free society.
