HPD arresting for speeding?
i heard on the news that HPD is really cracking down on speeders...they passed this one thing where they're just gonna arrest you on the spot for speeding....and you could get jail time from 30days to 2months....

Speeding has been an arrestable offense for a long time. It's been up to the judgement of the officer for years.

for any wreckless driving you could always be arrested. now if they find you speeding with other people or random people near you (not racing) they can arrest you for endangering their lives. just alittle more easier to arrest you now.

beware of public pressure
apparantly because of the public pressure hpd will be more strict. and from what i gather, the plan is to make excessive speeding or racing an actual criminal charge which means it will never leave your record. unlike conventional speeding which erases from your record within 3 years.

You old timers remember Roy from Midnight Racing? I believe he was one of the first guys ever to get arrested for speeding.
I talked to a couple of my cop friends around the time that happened (must have been 3-4 years ago, or even longer) and they said speeding has always been an arrestable offense being up to the discretion of the officer.

whats kind of scary is that it may be possible for "conventional"(if there is a such thing) speeders to get arrested if that new law passes.
*on a funny note- went to court on mon and heard this term "you will also pay 25 for the neurotrauma fund" someone please explain that!

Choku- please review. . .since you are a law expert
(D) A surcharge of $25 to be deposited into the neurotrama special fund;
