* Holding street races will be costlier with a new category of speeding fines for those traveling 36 mph over the speed limit or faster. Fines in the new, high-speed tier will be $300.

Currently, all infractions of 21 mph and more over the speed limit are punishable by $200 fines.

Without the law (LB621), someone going 150 mph in a 65 mph zone could be fined the same as someone driving 86.

Lawmakers thought the change was needed in an age of high-performance motorcycles and movies such as “The Fast and the Furious,” which they said encourage people to speed.

It was pretty ridiculous that anything in access of 20 over was the same fine unless the officer decided to hit you with wreckless driving, which he probalby would anyway if you were street racing so it might actually give someone who is busted racing an extra out if the officer feels generous.
