Default Avoiding the Tickets

What's your tip/advise from preventing getting a speeding ticket while on the road?

Mine is slow down at the apex of a hill or overpass (on and off ramps on US19)
Stay at speed limit on I-4 once there are trees in the medians, which is just west of Orlando on I-4. Cops usually hide in there, especially at night.

I-75 is pretty good to look ahead and tell if theres a cop. Dont bullshit the cop (Im not even good at it anyway) he expects that.

Only use the left lane for passing. Depending on what kind of device the cop is using he has to make a judgement call between two cars. If you are in the right lane and another car is close enough to you in the left lane he will assume the left lane is the faster car and is the car the radar picked up.

Here's an idea to insure you never, ever get a speeding ticket:

Don't speed?

It saves barely any time, especially around town. It wastes gas, and increases stopping distance.
