I think you are a little too worried about driving in Columbus.
You should be more scared about driving in Ohio with out of state plates. For some reason they attract cops to pull you over for speeding.
Everyone I know's been pulled over. Everytime I go through the state there's always a couple of people pulled over.

Have you ever driven from Michigan into Ohio?
The traffic in Michigan goes at 90 miles an hour and everyone hits the brake when they get to the Ohio line.
It's kinda funny! :o)

It doesn't matter what state you are from, the Ohio Highway Patrol doesn't care.
If you are speeding in Ohio, chances are better than the average state that you'll get a ticket. Perhaps it may seem higher for out-of-state drivers because they are not as familiar with the aggressiveness and tactics of the Ohio Highway Patrol as a Ohio citizen would be.

Well, hopefully they won't pull me over because I never speed. Set that cruise control.

That's because the Ohio Highway Patrol is brainwashed into thinking that 67 in a 65 zone on a straight freeway that is actually safe to go 90 on is a threat to the safety of society. I know those guys, and they take their job of speed traps way too seriously. I see the same number of people with in state vs. out of state plates pulled over all the time. Averages about 6 to 8 cars or trucks (they have to go 55) between Wheeling and Zanesville all the time. The ironic thing is, they don't even use unmarked cars.
