If you get caught doing 85 mph in Montana on the interstates, it's a five dollar cash fine. You pay the cop in cash for wasting resources, and nothing goes on your record. Your insurance won't go up. this all changes if the speed limit returns to 55. The Democrats are already pushing for this and Obama has said he supports it. All this means, if you like to go fast but not to jail, this could be the last summer you have. That is what I decided to do. If I am wrong I can do it again next year. If I am right, no regrets. I did what I could when I could. Montana has some interesting traffic laws that they do not advertise. Look up passing or safe and reasonable. Right car, right conditions, right cop. Who knows how fast you can go. Montana state patrol officers are there to help and keep things safe (wish this was true in my home state) not raise tax dollars. Just make sure you do it during the day and not at night. If you speed it in a construction area or drive drunk you will get all you deserve. If you are driving some piece of crap with bald tires or you're driving over you head and endangering people you're screwed and should be.

Sorry to go on so long.
