I hear you man. I had similar experience when I first took out a brand new X5 of my friend for a spin on DVP (Toronto). FYI, DVP is an expressway that livens up like an NFS street-track at night. It was so smooth that I didn't realize how fast I was going.

Fortunately, I never had to pay a speeding ticket for the last 10 years I've been driving. When I do so (hopefully not), it will slow me down.

During 2012 holiday season, I was in Texas and my friend was taking us to see something I forget now. We were in a rental car and my friend was trying to catch up with another car (his uncle's). He made a pass over an undercover cop SUV (I warned him) and was pulled over. He got so nervous that he made few mistakes while going for an emergency stop. He was fined 3 x $560 = $1680 for speeding, using emergency signal instead of right turn signal while going to right most curb and then stopping all-signals entirely.

He was able to reduce the fine later. But still
