I haven't gotten one in the past 6 months, but I have had my share of them :rolleyes: I just learned how NOT to get caught ;)

Never gotten a speeding ticket, and God willing I never will...I hardly speed, but I may encounter some jerk cop someday :(

Well , It was a speeding ticket in the city of DiamondBar I was doing 91 mph. in 40 zone (near the In-N-Out) A very stupid move on my part. The "original ticket was around $ 450.00 I went to court and made a payment schedule but didn't stick to it, then I attended only one of the two days of traffic school (big mistake) an figered I would just make it up when I had the time. Well as it turned out the Sheriff's department didn't agree. In the end being stupid cost me $1,685.00 an almost lost my license.

That sucks Dan but glad you had them tossed out. Some cops are just out to get you. My g/f's dad is a cop and he's been telling me how they catch people and some of them piss me off. They sit in the passing lane in undercover cars and wait tell you pass them then they nab you. But he says he usually only pulls people doing 30km/h over and up. Either way that just causes road rage. I hate when people do that. I usually cut infront of them drop me speed right now tell they move over then take off. Stupid *** people.

Either way check out this pic, tell me who has a cooler car. The cop or the person he is giving a ticket too. :D :D :D

That's easy! Screw the Firebird, I'll take a '69 GTO Judge any day of the week.

As far as cars that originally sold for under $4k go, that one will always be my number one choice.

clean record, 6 yrs an countin suckas..:D


Sh** now i've jinxed myself:eek:

No ticket since 1987, I had that one reduced(no points):).

Topless In Texas 07-18-2002 01:49 AM

OKAY...HERE GOES....... :D
 
Well, needless to say my record is ANYTHING but PERFECT! ALTHOUGH....I HAVE NOT GOTTEN ANY THIS YEAR! (I now have a radar detector. THANKS FORCE!!!!!!!!)
I've taken Defensive Driving about 6 times in my 18 year driving career, I TRULY believe I could teach it if I wanted to! (yes, thanks to my big brother being a total f..up, I didn't get my license till I was 19, and had been on my own for a year!)
I served Differed Ajudication one time...having to stay clean driving for 3 months and that one would not be on my record. Served Only 1 night in jail for another driving indescretion(about 12 years ago...) hence, my willingness to give up my keys if i've been drinking....DUMB!
My last trip to Defensive Driving I went to a comedy club. This was early last year I think....THAT IS THE WAY TO TAKE IT..we had a great time! (no, they did not serve drinks while we were there!):rolleyes: I wore my NHRA Speedlimit 350 MPH tank top to the class. Took it w/ my best friends husband. The guy picked on me relentlessly!!!!! We went to lunch, I broke about 5 laws during the lunch break..(unintentionally) and by the end of the day, we popped the hood on Topless and everyone was admiring her! LOL!
BUT.....I AM ALOT MORE CAREFUL NOW! I dont need to get written up for no front license plate(got the "My Classic Car" plate I got from being on the show, No Cats and I"m not sure about my taillights...(no Clear Back up lights....) :D
I am for the most part now a law biding citizen...and my daughter is trained, and VERY WELL I might add to tell me when she spots a cop! :) I guess with age comes a little discretion!
so...........my record is CLEAN!!!!!!!!!!:D TNT

I plead the Fifth.

Signed, The cops:p

polara7777 07-21-2002 09:04 AM

So far 4 tickets ( said 3 but I just remembered one.) Doing 55 in a 35 and no insurance. Got insurance so that one was reduced. Then a couple months ago on the way home from work I got nailed for 95 in a 70 and expired license (was just after my b-day)

84LX89GT 07-24-2002 11:42 PM

I've been lucky. Been pulled over 4 times for either complaints of tire noise :D or excessive displays (showing off w/friend in the car) and since the cops never saw me peel out or get me on radar i got lucky. One of the cops was actually laughing because as he was trying to catch up at 50mph in a 35mph (empty 4 lane road), he said i was pulling away quickly. I guess i was lucky i pulled over to go get pizza.
I think i have a few horseshoes up my @ss this year!

mustangman65_79 07-26-2002 07:37 AM

1 ticket in 4 years, and that was last year. But I wasn't really speeding, I was going 55 in a 50, crusie control set. But the cop said he was following me going 70, lying sack of ..., he was never behiend me till he pulled me over.

Umm, how were you NOT really speeding? :rolleyes: Any thing over 50 is considering speeding.... it's either you are or your not. :confused:

Cops give a slack of 5mph due to speedometer diff. In true I was speeding, but almost no cop will pull anyone over for 5mph higher then the speed. Besides, who really goes the exact speed the roads are set at?

Actually, there is a police department here that is natorious for giving ppl tickets for going over 2 mph over the speed limit AND they make it stick. They don't play around. If anybody in the Houston area is in Katy, watch out. Katy cops are mean!

mustangman65_79 07-26-2002 08:32 AM

Thats preatty stupid. I bet if the town started a petition against the police, I bet they'd change it back up to 5mph diff. The mass of ppl, can change anything.

Not all the time. There is a large group of ppl that want to make weed leagal..... and is it? Didn't think so :D

Basically, rules are rules and there are consequences for breaking them. We were suppose to learn that back in elementary school, but some of us didn't. ;)

Mustangbelle306 07-26-2002 01:17 PM

OMG....You can't just PETITION a freekin LAW :rolleyes:

Yeah, it sucks. Yes, its unreasonable. Yes, I'm sure those pigs speed to work everyday. That's life. Its obviously a greedy township that likes to nail the public. Even places with high speeding rates that I know of, have NEVER given a ticket for 2 mph. Its gay...but it IS the law. Get used to it, or turn in yer keys :D
