this should be interesting. post your worst speeding tickets and the most supprized you were at a let off, stories are nice too.....
worst, 103mph in a 65mph speed zone late for wrestling weigh ins and if you don't make weigh ins you don't wrestle. oh yeah, a 1988 subaru legacy.
best let off, i'd say its a tie, 95 in a 60. -late for practice and cop was a wrestler so he "connected" with me and told me to get going. -just watched Texas chainsaw for first time (i was like 16) with girlfriend and she lived in the boondocks. trying to get home when i get tailgated by some dude! it was 12pm so it kinda scared me so i gassed it, he just stayed right on my **** so i kept going faster. total, (75 in a 60, 65 in a 50, ran stop sign, and 47 in a 35) when he finaly turned on his lights i was pissed. who does that, especially late at night. so i told him i was late getting home from my g/f's house and he said i understand, just leave earlier next time! :thumbsup:

That is actually illegal for a police officer to do. They cannot do multiple infractions if they could have stopped you on the first one. The reason being that by disobeying the traffic laws, you are technically a criminal. That's like letting a rapist or murder do their thing 3 or 4 times before arresting him, hence the reason for the law.

ha, once i got let off leaving my high school with a car full of friends. i was going 35 in a 20 and rolled through the stop sign. as he flips on his lights we all rush for our seat belts. i din't know the cop but he knew me (i later found out i coached his son in little guy wrestling) so my bro in the passenger seat knows the cop though. as he walkes up he leans in the window and looks around and says "everyone get their seatbelts on alright" were all like, ummm yeah. he said. "slow it down, stop for stop signs and put your belts on before i pull you over." as my bro realizes were getting a warning he asks the cop, "you just didn't want to do the paperwork hu?" so the cop comes back with, "is that alcohol i smell on your breath." it was pretty funny.......moral, know your cops, get less tickets.

I once got a delay of traffic ticket for doing 61 in a 50. :57:
And when I first got the 3000 I was being pulled over atleast once, and on more than one occasion twice a day. I didn't have my plates and still had the temp tag, for a month, I had the temp in my rear window which was tinted so they couldn't see it. So one day I had my Mom in the car, and I got pulled over, and I had been just complaining about all the harassment.
So the two troopers walk up and the usual license registration blah well he walks back to his car comes back and starts saying how I really need to get the plates and that im running out of time and that I should stop procrastinating (The title was missing a signature from the previous owner who lived in Alabama, I live in Jersey, So I was having trouble even registering it.) AND out of no where my mother flips out.
"Who do you think you are!? Do you really have nothing better to do than harass my son just because he has a nicer car than you do, He's done nothing wrong!"
"Maam, you are going to have to calm down"
"No! You need to stop harassing my son and get a life!"
"Well. Mam' we will once he has plates on his car"
"Well you know he has a temporary tag" picks up phone and begins dialing, "So you can leave him the f#%k alone!"
"Step out of the vehicle"
"It's your God Damn Boss you can talk to him" hands the phone over."
5 minutes later.
"your good to go sir, heres your phone back."
Good to know the brass. :thumbsup:
