Re: Curious on tickets
I actually might be the youngest here... turned 17 August 1st. I have been pulled over 4 times but no tickets! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
1st time was for fishtailing around a corner in my neighborhood. Cop cussed a lot at me and eventually told me to get the F*** away from him or he would ticket me.
2nd time was for my old carbon fiber headlight covers. They were DOT approved, but he still made me take them off.
3rd time was the best... did 93 in a 20 street racing a newer SHO Taurus (beat him w/ just intake and exhaust at the time). Cop was off-duty and was apparently too lazy to call in another cop lol, bet he was late to shipley's. I almost Sh** a brick when I saw the light behind me.
4th time was in my HS parking lot for doin a few donuts... cop wrote the ticket but wrote void and ripped it in half after scaring the crap outta me!!
Well... those are my experiences w/ the cops, I hope my no-ticket streak will last! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: Curious on tickets
01 Silverado I'm the youngest i turn 17 on November 7, I got pulled over for doing 95 in a 35 got a ticket for rapid acceleration, no turn singnal twice, no contacts (driving blind), going the wrong way on a one way street, no d.l. or insurance (didn't have it on me) and running from a cop did all of this when i had a hardship.
also cut across three lanes and made a hard left turn scaring the crap of everyone going the speed limit cuz i fishtaild on the turn but i didn't get close to anyone but i did do it right in front of a cop
I've gotten over 30 tickets which all but one has been thrown out can anyone top that?

Re: Curious on tickets
I am 27 and only gotten 3 tickets. The last one I got was I was 24. According to the cop, I was doing 34 on a 30. I went over and talked to the judge and told him I wanted to go court. I thought I had a case since there must some kind of error margin on the radars. Well I never got a letter for the court date so I went over and asked what happened? The clerk asked who was the officer. The lady told me the ticket was dismissed because the officer was no longer with them anymore. I though how cool. Well it turns out the same cop that gave me the ticket was in jail or he is still in jail. One night he was out drinking, and got so drunk that ran over a man and fled the scene. The man died and the cop was charged with involuntary man sloughter. Moral of the story is don't just plea guilty, fight it because weird things can happen.

Re: Curious on tickets
I've had 12 tickets. Had 10 by the time I was 18 I'm 25 now. Raced an older 5.0 a month ago in my truck. Beat him by about 6 lengths at 80 mph. As I'm slowing down I see a cop and he pulls me over. He didn't ticket me, just asked "what have you got in that thing" and told me to look around better before I do that again. VERY COOL COP!

Re: Curious on tickets
Damn redaddiction, I'm surprised they haven't took your license and thrown you in prison yet. How much is your insurance or do you even have any? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I lost to one of those pretty bad when I was almost completely stock. I only had a true dual exhoust.
