She's been driving about 6-8 months. Yesterday morning she oversleeps and is running late for school. She thinks it'd be better to fly like a banshee to make up the time rather than arriving in one piece.
State Trooper busts her for speeding. Graciously wrote her up for 14mph over rather than the true speed she was doing. Ticket still about $200-bucks. Firefighter tag didn't help.
Daddy now wishes he'd bought a under powered Granny car for her to poot around in!

Even a Daewoo will break the speed limit. A base Mazda 3 will do almost 120mph
