This. Duck boy is just feeling a bit defensive.

You're right. It is a class A traffic violation which carries a $1,000 dollar fine (provided it is a first offense), 30-90 day DL suspension. That is assuming he didnt get reckless driving tacked on. Plus driving while suspended.

I have already said twice he did not get a reckless driving ticket. The cop could of tried doing that(but then had a chore of proving that was the case in a court session) but at 4am, there was hardly any other vehicles on the freeway there at that time. So the cop did not try to cite him for that.
As far as you thinking he "DESERVES" to be suspended. Well... I think I will send our Coach an email and tell him:
"Dir Esteemed Coach Kelly, there is this LSU fan all the way down in LA who thinks Cliffy should be suspended. Well why is just because he thinks so. I know you are not going to of course and neither would I. But there is this one man who is a LSU fan who lives all the way down in LA who thinks he deserves to be suspended- for the reason of 'because he says so'. Oh and Chip, can you please allow Cliffy to handle punt returns AND kickoffs please. Why do I want him on Kickoff returns which is not his norm? Why is because that one LSU fan who lives 3000 miles away down in LA called Cliffy 'a piece of shyt'. So Coach, can you please let Cliffy out to play even more and have some fun with LSU as a result? Thank you Coach Kelly."

That is not necessarily true. If you are talking making a front head on brick wall collision, probably so. But I race motorcycles. And I have been over 200mph too many times to count. I knew of many people who went down at around 240 on the Bonneville Salt flats and they walked away from it. Many do not, but many do. And this was on a bike. And bikes are easy to wreck. And you have zero protection when you do other then your gear you have on. If your going down the freeway, a front on collision is rare as everyone is facing the same direction. A accident on the freeway is usually just a driver accidentally swerving into your side, no one gets injured.
So again, you do not know what you are talking about. Talk to the Germans. They have been driving 100-200 mph on their expressways for years and have much lower accident/death rates then anything in America.

True but the cars are the same. (except the gearing is way longer for those higher speeds)
And if you will not except that answer because it is another country, then look no further then Montana. I remember once when I was a kid riding in the back with my family and my Dad was going around 115mph and he got passed by a cop. And my Dad just smiled at him as he got passed, cop smiling back. When society has no speed limit one would think all hell hits the fan, but it actually does not. Its all quite normal.

BTW, I have noticed for several months now LSU fans use the term, "it is German" often. What in the world does that mean? What are LSU fans referring to? I have long been curious, but just have not asked yet.

it's still against the law. Maybe the cop wasn't a traffic enforcement officer?

I don't think Coach Kelly is thinking the way you are. I don't think he's thinking, "eh, it was just a speeding ticket.". I think Coach Kelly is thinking, "Let's see... His driver's license was suspended because he didn't go to court after getting charged with a previous traffic violation, and he also didn't go to court after getting an under aged drinking charge. And now while his license was suspended he was not only driving when he shouldn't, but he was going 53 miles over the speed limit in a rental car that he shouldn't have had. ...hmmm, if I don't send this kid a message, he's going to do something that forces me to boot him off the team."
That's why he needs a suspension. It's for his own damned good. But you might be right. Maybe Coach Kelly is a pussy.

Incorrect. There was no law on top speed. General rule applied at the time. As long as there was not ice on the road one could drive as fast as they wished. If you were reading my comments I had notated that in Montana for a long time they had no speed limit. And yes that cop was a cop- Montana State police in his cruiser without his lights on.

I was talking about police divisions. A cop from a drug division will not give you a speeding ticket.

Did you fail to note I said, "when I was a child I remember this one time...".

True, another division cop could of been driving his cruiser that day and may not of cares to stop. However, because you don't have a clue what your talking about and just digging yourself deeper in bullshite, you don't think at that high of speeds if it had been against the law that he would not use this little thing called a radio? If he did not have time to stop my families car, don't ya think he would radio another officer down the road? The point I was making in my little story was I was showing how common it was that people drove fast all the time there. Just because you have never been to Montana and don't have a clue what you are talking about is not my fault.

Ducks fly in PAC...
Be careful what you wish for.
I'd rather see him play. I think it is a petty, stupid arse violation, but a violation nonetheless. I hope cliff plays. But it's starting to look like everyone inthe car may get a suspension.

It comes from Animal House - "Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?"
There was a tradition around here: if some news had been posted several times or someone was posting something he thought was breaking news, but "everybody" on the Rant already knew it, the Rant police would chime in thusly:
"Earth cools"
"Man walks upright"
"Fire discovered"
"Pearl Harbor bombed"
etc. Well, somebody combined the Animal House line with that last one... "Germans bomb Pearl Harbor", which got shortened to "Germans".
Sorry for the history lesson, but you asked....

That's false. Depends on what you hit and where you are.

Montana is nothing like the Autobahn, and Oregon is nothing like Montana. What a dumbass argument. But from you it makes sense.
