Yeah, you broke the law. Deal. Doesn't matter if the law is fair or not. I've been caught speeding a few times, but I've grown up a bit since then.
I don't think the speed limits and regulations on speeding are sensible, but I think it's safe to say that neither is doing 100+ in a 70 zone. The problem is that you might be fine, your car might be fine, but Johnny 2 kids and his 4 door sedan are expecting people to be using that road at 70. If he sees you but thinks he has enough room 'cuz he doesn't expect people to be going so fast, and pulls out in front of you, then there isn't gonna be much you can do about it. A lot of people don't have the driving skill us enthusiests have, and he wont be able to react in time to get out of your way. Also, you can have all the skill in the world but if you hit a pothole, puncture your tyre and hit the bump stops on your suspension at 100km/h, then you're no longer in controll... phisics is.
I personaly think speed limits should be raised in most areas, roads surfaces should be improved, and driver education should be better. But before that happens, speeding by that much is still dangerous.
