I just got a ticket for 77 in a 65. I feel like a kid who got caught with his hand in the cookie jar.




Any CA monkies know how much this is gonna cost me? Right now I am thinkin' about 150 so who knows.



:mumble:

Here in Washington I got a $156 ticket for going 83 in a 70.

 

[rooftest]

$150 to $250. I've got 20 of those things, at least. If you're in LA, you can take online traffic school.

 

[Zark]

I got a 78 in a 65mph zone ticket in Glendale. It cost me a whopping $78. It shouldn't be too bad

 

[partsbara]

i have four current speeding tickets... i swear one day i m gonna hit one of those cameras 50 times with a fvckin baseball bat....

20 huh? Ouch...


Yea, the copper said I could take the TS online, so That's a bonus.


I am more bummed about the endless lectures from my dad.

they don't exist in the US. can you pay off my 11 y/o ticket from NZ?

 

[Ciaran]

20? in what time period? (1 year, two years, etc)

Last I checked you would have had your license revoked after about 4 - 8 of them in one year. (I know because it happened to me)

You're a wanted man by now.

Speed kills.

meh - maybe he'll just ground you.

 

[chicodude]

meh - maybe he'll just ground you.

Meh, I don't see why. I have to pay for the insurance, and the ticket, so I pretty much just screwed myself over and I realize that. I don't need him tellin me over and over.

 

[johnbryanpeters]

Would it help if we told you over and over?

 

[chicodude]

Would it help if we told you over and over?

Not really, I have a feeling ya'll will though

 

[johnbryanpeters]

Nah, I hate 'em when I get 'em. You were a hair into the red zone but not flying.

 

[JRB]

Yeh - I was pretty bummed about 30 in a 20 here. It will cost $150 to take DD and be done. It would be $200 to pay it. I should go take pics and post them of the ridiculous new station they are paying, or should I say, we are paying for???

Whether they ticketed you or not, you would be paying for the station, but I'm glad to see you are pitching in a little extra just because.:appropriate smilie here:

 

[skinny mike]

wow, pulled over for 78 in a 65. maybe traffic cops up here just dont seem to care as much because in the boston area if you arent doing 80 then people are yelling at you to get the **** off the road.

 

[SkaredShtles]

Busted!

 

[stevew]

My highest was 75 in a 40. With a lawyer it was reduced to careless driving.

Did it start out as reckless driving?

 

[justsomeguy]

My "worst" was 98 in a 70 zone (after slowing from 170 to fiddle with my radar detector that had just blown a fuse).

As I fiddled the small blue dot that had been heading my way suddenly lit up like a xmas tree just before the truck passed me. Pulled over and the Nevada trooper wrote me a ticket for 75 in a 70 zone which carried no points, just a $65 fine.

Ahhhhhh...... I-80? That stretch of road in NV just BEGS to be driven fast.

Yea, there wasn't anyone around me to gauge my speed off of, but this is the usual speed on 395 in the boondocks.

The cop was nice about it but he was still more than glad to give the kid in the dark sunglasses and low hat a ticket. I'm just glad He didn't write me up for my exhaust

 

[justsomeguy]

Nah, too many people drive 80.

 

[SkaredShtles]

Nah, too many people drive 80.

Whoa. That's a 2-laner through there, ain't it?

 

[justsomeguy]

Whoa. That's a 2-laner through there, ain't it?

Yes. Great sight lines, very few cars and decent pavement (until you cross into Utah where it's not so good).

I-80 between Stansbury Island (40 miles west of SLC) and Wendover=bliss.

Interstate truck route, too much traffic for cruising at high speed, more enforcement = not bliss for me.

 

[Westy]

Back in the day I got pulled over for doing 92 in a 55 at 3:00 A.M. Ended up with just a warning. The only lucky break I have ever gotten and the time I deserved it least.

Not all of us have Porsches... I think I clap my auto out at 120

Your Probably closer to $250 remember its also going to depend on teh zone your in(IE) school zone, contruction zone...

I dont know about your Ins, but i have statefarm, and they allow me to take DS every 18 months if i get a ticket to not raise the cost of my Ins, works out well

Also, where else can you see things like the infamous Shoe Tree that stands East of Fallon?

Only UT State Troopers have been red enough around the collar to write me a ticket in the past ten years. The ones in Iron County especially loved my ponytail and beard.

.

South on US95 between hawthorne and yerrington. Separates me from bootleg canyon so I know it well.

But 50.........oh 50.............I've made so many friend's cars cry on that road following a "don't sweat it, I'll drive this stretch". Pure petrol eating, ozone destroying bliss for hundreds of miles.

 

[stevew]

Yes.

It happened when I was in VA.

 

[I Are Baboon]

I can't believe no one's said it yet. I'm so disappointed in you monkeys.

That made me laugh out loud.

30 in a 20? That means you most likely in a school zone or a residential zone, and you should get spanked for speeding there. Save it for the freeway, where you dont' have to worry about hitting some kid.

I concur. Peopled who exceed in resedential areas and school zones deserve to be ticketed.

 

[BrokenChain]

I got a $15 fine in ND, for doing 73 in a 70. The statie wasn't overly amused when I asked if he was joking, when he handed me the ticket. I decided to pay it though, just not worth wasting my time in court, as I would have lost more money, from having to get out of work.

Nice, didn't notice that the first time I looked at this thread. Did you take that pic?
