Letter: How fast was ‘the Wheeldude’ driving?

EDITOR,
Reading Lucjan Szewczyk’s step-by-step instructions for how to beat the system after you’ve gotten a speeding ticket, I would have felt a little better if he’d indicated that he was within spitting distance of the speed limit when he was pulled over. After all, it’s sad but true that policing and regulatory agencies do occasionally give in to the temptation to focus their attention on petty criminals and other low-hanging fruit while the Bernard Madoffs of the world are left to conduct their business in peace.
Unfortunately, there was nothing in Szewczyk’s “Ridin’ with the Wheeldude” column (Page 18, Feb. 26) to suggest whether he was doing, say, 40 mph in a 35 mph zone when he was nabbed, or pushing 95 on a crowded freeway.
Just how fast were you going, Mr. Szewczyk? Inquiring minds want to know.
