Another ticket... well, a first for me

[BrandAidDesignG35]

OK, I just put on my wheels, washed, waxed, sexified my beast.

I'm on the highway going about the speed limit, and this ford comes from behind me and hangs on my aRse... So, naturally, I blast the pants off this ford, and I start pulling off the gas as I see him W@Y back in the distance, as I come over a crest, I see the lights, I slammed the brakes but he already flicked his lights on 131 over 90 could be worse though, sucks it's gonna cost me 374 to get that ticket cleared...

I may go to court and hope he doesn't show up, I would win, if he did, he would clearly win his case, I didn't even bother to defend myself, he was like... "let me just get the paper work done and I'll get you right on your way" he was nice, didn't give me the whole, safety children livelyhood and society bumblecrap.

Anyway, just thought I'd join the ticket club, been drivin' like granny since

how fast were you going.. i think i missed that in your post... "131 over 90"???

but at least he was nice and professional... i had a cop chase my car down ON FOOT just to tell me my music was too loud... just last week

this happened as i was riding past a pool party in my apartment complex??? how could i be "disturbing the peace" riding past a pool party???

Sorry, typing too fast, I was going 131km in a 90km zone, 41km over the speed limit

If I was going 9kms faster, it would be 2K and 1 week suspension of lisence.

Silly police, here's a funny one...

I was with my brothers and my GF on Saturday, we went out on the ocean to look for these plants called fiddleheads, because they can be good to cook with, Anyway, these two cops were blocking my G off the road, and came in the woods after us... My pitbull was barking like crazy at them, they had their hands on there guns and asked us... "what are you up to back here"?

My Girlfriend was like, what's the problem? We're allowed to be here right? My dog is still freaking out at them... They answer, no problem, it's just late, we want to make sure you're not up to trouble... So why are you back here?

I sheepishly answer, "Well, believe it or not, we're back here looking for fiddleheads"!!

They totally thought I was lying, and keep pushing us... Oh, it's a little late to be out here looking for fiddleheads, It's a long way to go for fiddleheads etc. We're like, yeah, so?

The keep trailing us back to the car, and when I start up my car, and turn around, he's like, in the middle of the road blocking off traffic, with his hands out stopping me in the road, he's like... I noticed when you drove around that your lisence plate light is burned out, make sure you get that fixed

We all laughed when I drove away, My girlfriend said, why didn't we just say we went to take the dog for a walk... lol

Uunngghh...sorry to hear. I know how you are feeling ALL too well..

[BrandAidDesignG35]

No Sean, you probably don't

I was planning to drive like that until I got my first ticket.. now I have a reason to slow down and keep it within the legal range... all the more reason to hit the track a few times as well, I can't go cold turkey, I've already been tempted into speeding by 4 riced civics pulling out in front of me... I will be strong!!!!

[G_whizz]

I sooo do. Hey, I have a lead foot too... this is what happened to me last year (from another thread.

Just popped out for lunch and some errands... my car is impounded and my license suspended for 7 days.

used a street I'm not really familiar with that turns into a highway past a set of lights.

Apparently, before the set of lights it's 50km/hr and just past the lights 100km/hr

So, the light was green as I was approaching and I stepped on her a bit so I could catch it. Out pops the popo. I was apparently doing 102km in a 50km zone???

They towed my car to the pound for 7 days. They suspended my license for 7 days.

Not only do I get a ticket specifying my speed. But because it was over 50km's that I'm busted for, they gave me a ticket for "driving a motor vehicle on a hwy while performing a stunt" I was driving straight... how is that performing a stunt???

So the minimum $$ for speeding is $2000.00. The minimum for the "stunt" ticket is $1500.00.

Court date is on June 27th... I have a squeeky clean record... I'm so screwed now. especially if the categorize this as street racing... they can crush my frikk'n car, or take it away for 1 year and suspend my license for 1 year.

Anyways, before I go on a rampage here at work and fire someone for no reason, I needed to blow off steam. Please keep flaming me to a minimum, I'm already butt hurt...

I hate cops... They are all so full of themselves.

Sounds like you got a gift.

Oh yeah.... You were clean prior... that sucks dude, keep us posted on the proceedings

I'll just pay mine and be on my way... I'm still technically a new driver, do I get a new set of points when I update my lisence?

[G_whizz]

Proceeding are over now. It came to a close last month.

I ended up with a $235 ticket, 35km's over and 4 points.



Are you kidding? Don't just pay it. ALWAYS fight your tickets bro!!

How many points do you have now? If your a new driver your points are limited as is and if you don't fight this say hello to MEGA insurance hike.

[BrandAidDesignG35]

I have all my points now, but I'll likely lose 4 when this is said and done, going 41km over is tough to swallow... definitely going to court to see what I can do.

Insurance hikes would be a PITA no doubt, hopefully I can wash this under the rug like the criminals who are tried in a youth court.

[DAAN.]

ouch , how many points ?

[Rivalry]

I got OUT of a 25 mph over ticket a month or so ago...
