Snowball - Good luck to you and your niece. It sounds like it will all work out, although it’s not fun. I’m in Va and do lots of driving down to NC and up to NY. NC is famous for “work zones” with no apparent work occuring and cops looking for those oos plates. I’ve found myself at that upper 80 range without even realizing it - the cars fly and one gets in the zone of just going with the flow. No matter what happens, look at it this way, it’s always possible that absent this “scare” (for she will drive slower and be way more attuned to her speed for a good long time to come because of this incident) she would have been speeding at another point in time that could have led to an accident and not just a ticket and maybe this will prevent that from ever happening. Things happen for a reason and we can’t always see the big picture.
