Don't try to play smart on them or seem toooo apologetic cause they will get even more frustrated than they already are. In the south you might play well on the WOW car factor...And remember dont run away...they've got a gallardo too!!!
One other thing, for us italians if you drive up until to 40km/h on top of the speed limit (which is 130km/h) you just get a fine and points on your licence. Over that its licence taken away. (if you are foreign they might also impound your car...really it all depends on how the police officer's coffe tasted in the morning ) Cruising speed should be good around 180km/h cause give and take allowances and tacho mi-reads you should be within thise limits...If you give me your email i will send u a map i have with all the fixed speed cameras. I would get equipped with a VERY well hidden jammer if i were you and be careful detectors are illegal (though they might not even know what they are!!!). One last thing: while "ring-ing" sicily careful on your car from there stealing it and shipping it to africa is quite easy!!! (btw in sicily speed restrictions and police should be more relalaxed). Equip yourself with a telepass (to drive straight through) and viacard (preferential line in case telepass is stuck or busy) for tollbooths (dont know if you can have a telepass being foreign but you may ask an italian friend to lend it to you)... GUMBALL HARD and keep your head on your shoulders!
Thanks for all the adive. I'll be sure to bear in all in mind. But when the red mist desends..... Talking of Police Gallardo's, I know one of the gumball cars this year has been wrapped to look just like the official police car! Maybe i should just tag along with him and let him clear traffic
