so i was like, "hmm... what is the fastest speed of someone who has been pulled over in VA?" so i checked the records which go back to 1998 but are largely incomplete. chances are these are all motorcyclists (because they can reach these higher speeds and few cars can).

Goochland, VA is a county west of Richmond. They have several office parks occupied by high-tech companies and they are building more trying to attract more high tech.
It offers lower cost housing and hopefully better paying jobs, or so they say to attract new business to the county.

hey retard, did you miss the "note: 'NULL' means the information was not entered into the system by the cop which can mean it does not apply or it's a lazy cop," part? there are a LOT of entries in the DB where cops didnt put in basic information.

"whattt" did you not notice that two white guys got fried too. Oh wait you want to hear that a prejudice white judge got the black and asian guy arrested based on their race, I mean the fact that they almost wnet 3 times the speed limit has nothing to do with it right? I thought that would be a dead giveaway or you just want to give yourself a reason to bitch?

The police don't input fines, sentences or case information so they aren't being "lazy." Court clerks and courthouse personnel handle that task.

looks like the server went down for the count: http://epwsgdp1.courts.state.va.us/gdcourts/caseSearch.do?index=index
try to search anything, the whole thing flatlined.

The speed governor on my Saturn is 125mph... and it definitely is far from a high-performance vehicle. It would take a really long time to get to 125 though.

Some sort of plea bargain, probably. Or, maybe they lacked the evidence needed to pursue the charge.

Some of these I'm sure were in cars. I've been in a car going 140+ on numerous occasions. Hell I even spun out one time going about that fast (that's another story).
I was in court one time and some numbskull had no lawyer and just plead guilty to going 150 down I95 in his corvette. What an idiot. He got 180 days with 90 suspended. The judge even told him that he was going to go to jail if he got found guilty and he was like "I am sorry but I did it". You'd think if he could afford a vette he could afford at least a decent lawyer.

Not that I'm proud of it or anything but when I had my S2000 a few years back I hit 135, almost 140 crossing the Legion bridge. On my bike I can hit 125 in like 12 seconds... nonetheless I think some of those numbers might be under-rated.

Looks like MICHAEL SCOTT FALCONE was also charged with a felony (eluding police), which was probably why he was going so fast. They probably just got him on that and dropped the speeding. My guess is maybe he was on probation and that was enough to send him back to prison for a long time (hence the running from police)

while not suspended, he was techincally not allowed to drive for 180 days... (assuming 1/2 time served)
wouldnt that be shitty to come back from that and then still not be able to drive...
