For me and my commute of 97 miles daily (round trip, I-15 in so-cal) I find that I feel that the cops ignore me and choose to stop the "beaters" on the road with the expectation that once pulled over they will have the opportunity to write more than just a speeding ticket. Obviously this is very region specific, but all in all i feel better driving beyond the speed limit in my 997 than in my honda (beater)
