Then you realize you’re speeding 20+ mph over the limit. I usually rely on my ‘butt tach’ to know how fast I’m going, but the Mach E is so smooth and quiet that I’ll need to recalibrate it for more accurate seat-of-the-pants driving.
Pulling away from a red light it feels like everyone else isn’t moving.

They aren’t moving when you pull away from a red light. They wait for it to turn green. That could be your issue. 
I turned on propulsion noise because I realized I was speeding and needed some feedback when accelerating. The Mach E is my wife’s, and I drive an ICE car most days. Sometimes I’ll take the Mach E to work if she’s not using it. I don’t usually speed in my car—just 5-10 over. But in the Mach E, I’ve looked down and seen I’m 20 or 25 over, and it doesn’t even feel fast. I’m sure I’ll get a speeding ticket one day.
Every day. Especially when taking off.

I love jumping ahead at the red light, stopping right at the speed limit, but being so far ahead of everyone else. We got a red one because my husband loves red. As someone who hasn’t gotten a ticket since 2009, I got pulled over the first week. Titty privilege is real!
It’s winter here in Michigan. So I’m just cussing the drivers going way too fast. lol
The day I brought it home, I said it’s not if I get a ticket, but when.
Had mine for 7 months and already got a speeding ticket for going 94 mph. I realized I was speeding and was about to slow down to engage BlueCruise when I saw the cop. Watched him for a minute, and then I saw him cross over to my side. I knew I was done for.
@Colin
Seeing the cop pull out in your rearview mirror is the worst. A few years ago I was speeding on an empty road, going maybe 80 in a 55. I came around a bend and saw a state trooper sitting there. I couldn’t slow down in time, so I just kept going and lost sight of him. HE NEVER CAME. Part of me thinks he’ll knock on my door one day and say, ‘I clocked you going 80 in a 55 back in April of 2021. Here’s your ticket.’

Radar detector + Waze are your friends.

As long as you have navigation, Google Maps uses Waze too, and will warn you about speed traps.
@Colin
Eh, it was just your turn.
I’ve been riding a super sport motorcycle since 2005, and I’ve NEVER gotten a speeding ticket on it. But I guess you’re right. I’ve gotten away with a lot. 
@Colin
Back in '94, I bought a black '94 Mustang GT as a divorce gift. Two weeks after getting it, I was on my way to a board exam and got stuck behind two semis driving side by side. I faked a left pass, then sped down an off-ramp at about 100 mph to get around them. At the end of the ramp, I met a THP cruiser waiting. I downshifted and braked, but before I got under 100 mph, he turned on his lights as I passed him. I slowly pulled over in defeat. The trooper said he clocked me at 80 mph, and when I told him I was trying to beat the trucks, he smiled and said he was waiting for them until I came along. It was a $350 ticket, and I’ve been lucky ever since. (Knocks on wood).
@Valor
You just reminded me of a time I did get a ticket on my bike. I was going 120 mph on a freeway and got pulled over by highway patrol. I didn’t have my insurance card, and my tags were expired, but the officer only wrote me up for doing 80 in a 65. I was really lucky.
To be fair, I was doing that before my MME.
Y’all jest, but I’ve seen some slow Mach E’s out there babying that pedal.
It’s the reverse for me: I almost stalled my ICE car trying to drive it like a Mach E.
