The job of police is to keep people safe and if they're really concerned about making folks slow down they'd make themselves bright billboards to remind people to do so. Unmarked cars are for hunting speeders and generating money and nothing else. When you consider that speed is sited as cause in something under 15% of accidents, its hard not to look at tickets as much more than a money grab.Personally, I think you should be able to test into a higher class of license that would allow you no limit on highways. I've been an EVOC instructor, driven PSD overseas, been a fire truck driver and instructor, etc. and am 100% I'm competent and attentive enough to handle my car, truck, and motorcycle at speed. I know my capabilities as well as those of my vehicle and would be willing to accept responsibility for the same.  I also think that if you get rear-ended while in the passing lane on a highway, the law should consider it your fault by default.</blockquote>
