Anyone who gets a ticket deserves it, because all you need to do is stop once to go pee and you've padded the time. Other than the cops along the way might have something to say about it, you can do 90. The time in line waiting to pay might even be enough to pad it up. Of course, back in the days of "double nickel" maybe it made sense, but it's just not worth the time now. Even with the automation of Pikepass.
They don’t do that any more. But they used to. And yes, you could pull over somewhere and pad your time. I’ve made numerous hot runs to Tulsa in under an hour. And that was beyond gate to gate. and would have deserved the ticket had I heen stopped. But I never had to pay a fine at the gates or through pike pass.
