you're an idiot if you think slowing down and doing a 20-120 pull is going to get you out of getting a ticket, vs going 50-170. Also you aren't taking into account the braking power, handling ability, or the fact that going from 50 is going to bring WAY less attention to you then going from 20....

Right but going 100 above the speed limit isn't going get as much if not more attention.
