Oh! Indecently, not meaning to pile on Kia, and just trying to help here:
While I HAVE had more than my fair share of bad luck in this area, I have
NOT ever had a ticket for even as much as 20 MPH over the speed limit much
less 27.5 MPH over (at least in the last 40 + years). Haven't had ANY
tickets at all in the past 5 + years either, proving that "Sometimes maybe
you CAN make your own luck" - either way.
Watch me get a ticket tomorrow for opening my Damn mouth!!!!
Safety Fast!

I am VERY sorry, seriously and sincerely.
However, I DO know the feeling and I've got some VERY interesting stories
that I could tell you too!!!! - but I won't bore everyone.

Well, in Pennsylvania it will cost you precisely $178 dollars and five
points on your record... I was ticketed this morning at 7AM for doing
27.5mph over a posted speed limit (which was 40). This during my regular 2
mile commute to the train station.
I suppose that is the irony of having another family member crash less than
12 hours previously, into a car that was uninspected, parked the wrong way
and whose driver was uninsured and that person received no citations for
lack of necessary paperwork to associated with the privilege of driving...
but of course, The Man stuck it to me... an insured driver with an inspected
car (same municipality).
So Jerry Erbesfield, you don't have the worst luck in the world... I do :P
