A cure for speeding?
 
Just curious if anyone has a cure for speeding? I just got a new ES a few days ago and it's my first stick shift car. When cruising through a 25mph neighborhood in 3rd gear, I'm tempted just to pop it in 4th and fly through, when I'm already doing 35 or 40. (Just one example... :D ) I know fines can be a lot of money, money I don't have. Any tips to keep from speeding would be great! I don't even notice it half the time either! Thanks!

Be in control
 
Be good, If you like Mr Police officer On your ass, then that will keep the speed down. But If you like him there then speed away..:blue:

Keep open liquor in the car and some on your breath. A night in jail could make you rethink your driving and just how much attention you want to draw to yourself when you're goofin' around in a car.

Seriously I would recommend staying in 3rd in the neighborhoods and stay around 30 or under. There are a lot of surprises that can happen in a residential neighborhood (kids, bad driving seniors, etc.). Speed on the bigger highways where there's more predictable situations, if you must speed at all, or buy a helmet, a fire extingisher and join a local SCCA or other local/regional club who sponsors racing or autocross events.
No prob with the cops there!

This has got to be the stupidest question in the world.

You have the ability not to do it right? Then don't.

Attention-whore.
