Agree, but if it might be your last chance to see your mom you might decide it’s worth it. I read upthread her mom has cancer.

I would have driven 150 mph if it gave me a chance to spend time with my dad.

I’m not unsympathetic. But she she still needs to slow down. And I say that as someone who’s been in her shoes. A few times.

Absolutely concur with your post.

You are correct that none of us know the other details.
If my parents were seriously ill, reaching them would easily be worth the risk of a speeding ticket to me.

I will not criticize her without knowing all the additional facts.
Judge Pirro is not contesting the ticket...so unsure why other FReepers are so upset at her personally.

Judge Pirro is a successful woman and was likely in a big German sedan or similar.
There is a vast safety difference between driving a clapped-out 1998 Hyundai Excel as contrasted with a 2018 Mercedes-Benz S-class.
