      Also, In parts in VA the judges believe that you deserve a day in jail for every MPH you go over a certain speed and stick by that.
      In VA you can do 300 hours of community service and it won't matter to a judge because he's just there to 'punish' you.

    I live in DC and very well aware of the "freeway", it's a half a mile (yes, 0.5mi) elevated stretch that has pedestrians and bicyclists crossing it non-stop on one end and it becomes a regular city street (K st) on the other end. I've gone maybe 50mph on it but 71mph would take an effort and a 300+ ponies engine. Also that's an area with multimillion dollars tiny row houses so it's well policed.
    Also, for reference DC has adopted Vision Zero and is very serious about speeding. I got a ticket for merging into traffic at 37mph, in 25mph zone when everyone was going 35mph. So that's DC driving for you.

    As Georgetown University is one of my clients, I am extremely familiar with that stretch of road. I’ve never really thought about it before but it does have its own unique sound being an elevated concrete highway and the echoes off the adjacent buildings. It’s feels like it’s meant for 70-80mph which I’m guilty of myself. I can also attest to the fact that if that officer continues to set up radar there and step out into traffic, he will have a short career. Never thought to look for an officer there so thanks for the heads up and thanks for sharing. I could literally feel and hear Whitehurst freeway while listening to your story!

With all the dumbass drivers who don't know how to slow down safely, and considering how short Whitehurst is I think 50 is reasonable and safe, but forget over 60. There are street lights at either end of the parkway so idk why you should go 70 or 80 wtf.

    You may say: "Well why don't you slow down?"
    Well that's where the predatory part comes in. They lower speed limits and place speed cameras all over the city. They say its for "Safety."
    I ask: What's safer? Keeping traffic moving on a highway? Or having people slam on their brakes when the highway goes from 55 to 40?

I wanted to see how fast I could drive from my home in Ventura to Riverside where I would see my grandma, and friends. I was stopped 3 times, One officer let me go, the other two wrote me tickets, one for like 70 which was nice as I was doing well over 100. The third, I was doing 120 through Diamond Bar, but I saw the cop, and slowed down, he gave me a ticket for 80. Somehow they screwed up, and I went to traffic school on both, so basically got away scot free except for the time in traffic school which was also a story in itself, both teachers let us go way early so we spent like 5 hours instead of 8. lol Talk about luck!
