> Ryan, I respectfully disagree with one point of your post, I don’t see this making the streets more dangerous, I actually think it will make them safer. With this type of sentencing, where you’re charged based on how much you went over, and your car is not taken away at the side of the road, we’re going back to sanity.  
> When people know they’re looking at a roadside seizure, it is VERY, and I mean VERY tempting to run from the cops. Not sure what the numbers are for fast cars, but I saw a poll on GTAMotorcycle on stopping for cops, and I think like 80% said they run or something like that. This way, people know that they’re just getting a ticket, and that they’re only making things worse on themselves by running. They have more to lose in my eyes.

Yeah…I did look at it that way also. I agree with you in terms of the payment method BEING MORE EFFECTIVE, but the fact that your car cant be taken away I think will be enough to let some of the freaks/idiot racers out. I still think that people will take advantage of this new “freedom” if the ruling goes through in our favour. I know about the bikers 1st hand… a buddy of mine around my area has done it twice, lucky as hell of course but still… a bike vs a car always wins in straight line acceleration, one of the best chances IMO to have in a possible chase. Honestly if i was on a bike, I would ponder that choice as well cause really and truly, if youre sitting on a R1 going 140km and you see a cop…250km will be really easy to get to and dissapear from cops sight.

All-in-all, while most of us have enough sense (I hope) to realize how much better this will be for the better, there will always be those few that fuck things up for the rest of us…
