Post Your Best Awards (Tickets)

[justinp20012500]

Got this one a couple of years ago.



Judge was a nice guy. $100 fine, 6 months probation. Never saw the driving record.



I am just glad I slowed down to take the curve...

I don't have a way to post the actual ticket, but I got a 80 in a 55 to the tune of $300. Also have had 66 in 45 and 73 in a 55 recently. Speed limits are rediculious revenue generators in my opinion.

 

[jwilliams3]

71 in a 35 back in 03.

69 in a 55 and 76 in a 55.

 

[JeffWhite]

Do I get a prize?

I don't have a copy of it, but got one for 66 in a 35 years back - why I remember it

so vividly is the little 18 yr old looking cop asked me "Do you realize you were going

almost double the speed limit?" I had to darn near bite my tongue off to

keep from asking him if I could back up and get a little bigger run at it -

I believe I could have tripled it easy!

91 south in VT. 91MpH in a 65 WITH 2 sleds in Tow.

TDR member Ahartley is a witness LOL! He got snagged tryin to catch up to me as he spotted me in the middle of nowhere VT.

Most recent for me (last month) was a 16 point speed contest ticket (no i wasn't dragin' on the street). That's one and a half drivers licences in Colorado. This infraction hold a $1,500 fine, One year in jail, and removal of the licence for 1 year. OUCH! Bend over, Wheatridge needs new stoplights

 

[Jumbo Jet]

Wasn't mine - but wife got a 52 in a 35 leaving a po-dunk Missouri town going uphill - no way she was doing 52. Cost $1,200.

I got a 'speed contest' about a year ago. I was puttin the hurt on a Dmax full of punk kids on a saturday night.



Cop came up and said "do you know why I pulled you over?" I said "why yes I do. " He said "I am writting you up for a speed contest!"



I said "Did you see the race, there was no way that was contest, I put 4 truck lengths on him!!!"



The cop then asked, "Son have you been drinking tonight??" Needless to say he didn't think I was very funny!!



Another $150 fine and traffic school. I love that traffic school, I have had maybe 18 speeding/reckless driving/ speed contests and have never seen one on my driving record.

"I said "Did you see the race, there was no way that was contest, I put 4 truck lengths on him!!!"







now thats funny, i dont care who you are. he should have let you go for good spirits or gave the dmax a ticket for trying :-laf



i had a friend that outran the cops on his bike at over 150mph and they ended up finding him later that night and went to jail, and lost his licence for a year. never seen the ticket though.

I do not have a picture of it, but it was like a $750 ticket. Speeding, in excess of 120MPH in a 65 $500, following too close $100, and driving in the brakedown lane $150. All at the same time, a little racing on the way to Wednesday night drags at New England dragway. Had to go to court as 3 moving violations in 12 months in MA is automatic license suspension, judge dropped everything but the speeding, is was BS anyway, cop was really fired up when he wrote the ticket. Interestingly the ticket never showed up on my insurance.

I looked for them but couldn't find them. All in Kentucky: Millersburg 49 in 35 = $100+, Paris 71 in 55 = $100+, Lexington knocked the rear bumper off a lady's car that I carried in the bed of my truck as a trophy = $500+ for repairs (Kentucky was a no-fault state).

[Kissfan113]

got a speeding ticket for 57 in a 45 outside Gauley Bridge WV, and a warning for 70 in a 55 :--) back here outside Dunmore, i knew the State Trooper that pulled me over on that one though.

 

[C. Harlan]

damn, where to begin?!?!

Most recent first:



1. a few weeks ago, I was stopped for 55 in a 35. traded a log of Copenhagen for a ticket.



2. 2 years ago, was stopped for 80 in a 65 on the way to the Watermelon Thump in Luling. told the cop I had diarrhea, and he let me go.



3. got stopped on the 4th of July, a while back. Had 11 people sitting in the back of my 1st gen, on/at a picnic table, and get a ticket for no seatbelt. What the hell? I was going like . 001 MPH, in traffic, moving NOWHERE! It was the same cop who arrested me for Minor in Posession of Alcohol on the last day of my high school life. WHILE I was asleep, may I add.



Just a few, but I think the 11 people at the picnic table takes the cake... .

Well pulled over but no ticket.....



While leaving what used to be my favorite bar... you have to come up to a stop sign on a little hil and take a left... . Well it was springish here in MN, so there was sand at the stop sign. It was sprinkling so the roads were wet. I'm following somone, and have no idea where she lived. So I'm gonna stay as close as I can. On that corner is a gas station. I noticed a Durango sitting there with it's lights towards the innersection. I can't see anything more than that... . so they go... my turn... I give it a little throttle... and the duallys break loose. What do I do... what any self respecting redneck would do... Plant the right foot and walk'r sideways! About mid way through the turn... I relize that the durango... . is a squad. OOPS! Needless to say... he pulled me over. My friends didn't even notice! They kept going! The cop asked me if I was drinking... . nope... Asked me about the last time I was pulled over I told him. . he's looking at my license and I said "that was pretty stupid wasn't it?" He looked at me "yup" (oh boy I'm in for it now) He hands my lic and ins card back to me and says "keep your foot out of it!" "Yes Sir!" Off I went.....



6 miles later... I caught the girls!

I've had a few in my younger days, mostly on the open road, none of which I can say I am proud of. The most amusing one I ever had was a warning ticket on the Indian Nation turnpike in Oklahoma one night in 1999. I had just gone through the south most toll gate going North when I topped a hill and red lights lit up the South bound lane. It was an Oklahoma Highway Patrol and he said he stopped me because I had illegal fog light and they were on. I tried to explain to him that they were factor lights and I thought they were legal to no avail. He lectured me for a while then wrote me a warning ticket. When I returned home, in an effort to see if the lights were leagal in Oklahoma, I called the OHP office and gave them the code (violation) that the trooper had written on the ticket. Turned out, it had to do with running through the toll gate without paying. A vehicle had gone through while I was paying without slowing down and I suspect it had already passed him when he got the call and he thought it was me. bg

 

[AggieJustin]

told the cop I had diarrhea, and he let me go.

What a "crappy" excuse. :-laf :-laf



Worst one, 81 in a 45. About 30 seconds after a buddy riding with me says "wouldn't it suck if you popped over one of these hills and found a cop", I popped over a hill and found a cop at the bottom.



He only got me for speeding, let me slide on the reckless driving charge (>35 over limit). Needless to say, the judge wasn't cutting me any other slack since the officer already did.

From the looks of it I have been getting away with murder!!!

 

[JoshPeters]

From the looks of it I have been getting away with murder!!!

I donno about that... . I've been pulled over 27 times... . 2 tickets. :--) :--) Oo. Oo.



Lucky... maybe... .



When being pulled over... .



Roll down the window. keep both hands on the wheel. Once your stopped turn on the hazzards and turn the vehicle off. (makes them feel at ease) Talk nicely to the officer. Don't lie. If they ask... tell them what you know. Ya I was goin a little fast. Don't say how fast...

If they ask for you license and insurance. "My license is in my back pocket and my insurance is in the glove box. " Then reach for them. (again the officer is at ease)



I think I've gotten out of most of mine because I kept them at ease, wasn't sarcastic, or had any malce in my voice.

I wish more stories in my life ended like that. :-laf

 

[JoshPeters]

Well my buddy got the up side of the deal... he dated the driver for I think it was 8 months or so... . I just got to drive that night.....



Believe me... most don't end up that way!
