i see this as fair game. 80(or 90 on a good pieces of 280) in a 65 is fine as long as you pay enough attention to the driving to notice a cop and slow down a bit. If you don't pay enough attention - well, you just shouldn't drive 80 ( sometimes, when i'm really tired late after work, i drive in the right at 60-65)
along 101 between sf and southbay, 80 is normal flow in left most lanes (or should be unless some asshat in a prius is smugly going 65 while 25 cars are flashing their brights in vain and forced to dangerously weave across 3 lanes to pass)
and for those who drive 101, please be considerate and keep up, or keep right.
The end result is, someone was ticketed for speeding-BFD. It inevitably happens to most drivers, and its not the end of the world, especially because if you can afford Glass, you're probably going to be able to afford a ticket. Only on HN do we have people second guessing the entire concept of speed limits, and making all sorts of excuses for something so trivial as a speeding ticket being given out.
Since you looked at all the comments, you should have noticed that she was not using the glass, and thought she was in a 75 zone. So I'm at a loss as to what you're implying..
Where is she from that she thought it was a 75 zone? There are none in all of California. Hours away on the 101, there is a 70 mph zone. Certainly nowhere around here.
She passed a cop doing 80 in a 65, I wonder what was so distracting that you'd miss a cruiser one lane over..
