Gees, no. I don't think the Fit can go that fast.

Got a warning for speeding day 2 in my Fit. The officer didn't give a crap that I was driving a Fit.

None in my GK but plenty in my GD. Mostly speeding.

Best one was 81 in a 55 construction zone. $366 and 3 points.

Ahh to be young and dumb again...

I've had my GK up to 100 and my old GD up to 105.

It takes a while to get em up there but they go.

Knock on wood...
I have yet to get any violation with a Honda Fit. Either my 2016 now, or my 2010..years ago.

It seems to me, that The Honda Fit kind of flies underneath the radar...pun intended?
That is it blends in as just a sub-compact in a stream of vehicles.

In between I owned a Prius, and believe it or not, it just seemed to attract more attention.
I got one speeding ticket where the officer did not even try to suppress his joy at ticketing a "Prius".

That's not to say...regardless of what you are driving..if you get caught by a camera...it's going to take the picture regardless of what you are driving.
But as far as "Attracted Attention" my relatively stock looking Honda Fit seems to simply have the advantage IMO of blending in, and NOT attracting the overt attention of Traffic Cops.

Traffic violation? I'm so used to driving a 1981 Corolla wagon that I often glance down at my speedometer in the Fit and see I'm only doing 50 in a 55 area and everybody else is doing 65 mph.
