Can You Buy A License to Speed?
Wow, that's not even a rich people thing. $1,800 for a lifetime speeding license is a decent deal for anyone who regularly likes speeding.

Your basic ticket comes to about $400 with all the extra fees in California. If you were to get a few, it pays for itself.

Wouldn't your insurance rate go up as well after a speeding ticket?

If you're rich enough to spend $2500 on speeding ticket insurance, putting away $50,000 for an insurance deposit isn't a big deal, so no, that $50,000 deposit costs the same as it did.

That's a pretty slippery slope. You just lumped 20x as not a big deal.

Also anyone that can afford posting their own bond instead of lieu of an insurance requirement also has their own legal representation.

And it should be pretty easy to forge the license plate frame for a heck of a lot less.

Sort of like it says in TFA.
