Well my worst and only ticket I got was in my 94 Dodge Dakota going 8 over the limit in a construction zone and passing a Super Trooper. Got a $135 ticket. Not that bad at all.
My best let off was when I was driving my 3000GT and I was going around 75 in a 45 and swerving across all 3 lanes twice, without blinkers. County pulls me over, so I turn on my dome light and hands on my steering wheel. He walks up, I roll my window down and first thing he says, "What year is your car?", in a nice and curious tone. I was shocked and paused for a second, I say, "98." We exchanged some words and told me to me to keep it down. :)
This is a funny story, not really a let off, well, it kinda is I guess. :P
I was in my 3000Gt again and going 90 in a 55 highway zone and was coming up to a bunch of slow moving cars, my lane was clear, so I continued going 90. Right when I started to pass the slow moving cars, I see a Super Trooper driving on the far right lane, I was on the far left. So I slammed on my brakes and got down to 60 with the other cars, but passed up the cop a bit. The Super Trooper didn't do anything, just kept driving. I kept going 60 and eventually starting gaining distance ahead of the cop and other cars. In Indiana, you can legally go 5mph over the limit and not get pulled over. Then, I look at my rear view mirror and noticed the cop speeding up a big amount, still in the far right lane, I was on the 2nd lane from the left now. I look back towards the road and about 10 seconds later, I take a look at my rear view mirror again and he's gone. I look to my right, and there he is, even with my car, starring at me with a disapproving and somewhat angered face, I guess. So I smile at him and he pulls off, and I just start laughing. :grin:
Good Times
