    So just for fun purposes, what's the biggest/worst traffic ticket you've received? I got my first ever speeding ticket last year at ripe age of 31. Managed to go 15 years without one....

    But if you gonna do something, do it GOOD! 106 in a 65. Was it stupid? Yes. Quiet, empty freeway at 6:30 AM on a Saturday, just got the 06 GT out of winter storage week prior after winter rebuild, decided to stomp on it a bit, and didn't even see the cop til I flashed past at almost redline in 4th. I didn't even wait to see him pull out and flick on the lights, I just pulled over up ahead and waited for him. He asked me if I knew how fast I was going and I said "Honestly I have no clue but I know it was wayy over"

    $166 ticket and 2 points on my license and could have been far far worse as he could have charged me with reckless operation and he knocked it down to 96 written on the ticket.

    Cop did like the car though, and he was really nice considering. After all said and done, he was walking away to his car, then came back and said, "So I gotta ask, does it really get 9 MPG?" To which I said, "City driving, sadly, yes". He laughed and told me that he usually warns drivers merging back onto the freeway but said that he didn't think somehow I would have too much trouble catching up to speed...

    What's your story?

  7. Lmfao. That just made me smile. I wish my truck can hit that lol Before I got my Ranger, I was out in the Dak ripping around town, getting into drag races on the local racing avenue. Was going home, when I got pissed off at traffic because nobody would let me out to turn left. So I sat there for five minutes, light changed, too many cars. Sat there another five minutes. Same thing. After the third light, I said **** it, drove over the median to the entrance and shot behind traffic on the wrong side of the road for about a hundred feet or so. Next thing I know, I got ole John Law on my ass. I pull over, truck was completely mud covered, and he came up and asked for my license, but no registration. I was about to **** myself because my mom would kill me if I got a ticket. Next thing yanno, he walks up, gives me my license and tells me that my dad oughtta kick my ass for covering "his" truck in mud like this. I laughed, agreed and said he almost has a few times. This was before I got put on as a coowner on the title (and what caused it lol) But he talked to me about it for a few, then told me to drive safely and keep the four wheeling to the trails lol No ticket, LUCKILY! My dad knows about it, but my mom doesn't... lol

    $75 for rolling a stop in my development (the only time i've ever done that!) i was on my way home, had worked double shifts the entire week, and just wanted to go to bed, i may as well have been a zombie. luckally, scince my development is all private roads, it's nothing that ever goes on any records for my liscance, or driving record. what happens here, stays here, lol. i paid the fine as soon as they sent it to me, and that was that.
     
  15. I have only been pulled over twice in 33 yrs, first time I was 16 and cop pulled me over for
    C and I he let me go after giving me his speech.

    2nd time was about 5 yrs ago, I did not use my turn signal getting off hiway exit ramp, hiway patrol in Missouri no ticket just another lecture , I really think he wanted to know who I was at 2 am


    oh forgot about the motorcycle riding while only fifeteen yrs old , I got off and started pushing it when I saw the cop, told him I was only pushing it, yeah right motor hot as hell
