Not true..even 35...if you do 55 you are considered wreckless. I was in a 25 mph zone doing 47. I got wreckless driving.

just don't get a reckless in NN, the only ticket i have had in the last four years was failure to dim headlights but the judge today thought it would be a good idea to suspend my DL for a 81/60

whats w/ all the "(11 years)" things? is that how long it stays on your record or something? Some of those are somewhat unclear though, like the passing of 2 vehicles... thats only when a road is 2 lanes.
