well a few month ago I got caught by a mobile police van, I was doing 59 in a 30 zone, but I didnt know, It looked like a motorway 3 lanes each side it stinks,

anyhow I got a court sate, got myself a great solicitor and we went to court, he was great, amazing infact and the outcome was 6 points and a £100 fine I was happy!
I have my own company so PHEW!

Ohhh no, i've got every ticket in the book that you can think of............My worst ticket goes something like this.......lol

Flying down the hwy, with a Boxster S (my friends car), my car is a base. Obviously his car is faster. I am at about 240km, and my friend is at 250km(in and around these speeds). My friend is infront of me, obviously driving faster.

We fly by a cop that is sitting on the shoulder of the hwy, he jumps out of his car, on to the hwy and as we are flying by him, he waves us to stop and pull over. We end up in the fast lane reversing on the hwy back about 1km. As we flew by the cop on the side of the hwy we see cammaro cop cars lined up, so ****************ting already we had to stop. We reverse back the km on the shoulder. The cop ends up being the hottest lady cop that i've ever seen in my entire life. She tags me at 150km and my friend at 140km. I for some reason got the bigger ticket, don't know how, seeing that my friend was going at a faster speed, but whatever.

My ticket ends up being a court date on the spot, no joke, she even gave me a time and court room # on the spot.....so screwed.

My friend gets a ticket for $600 and 6pts.....

she tell's me to get a dam good lawyer because i'm going to have to explain why I deserve a licence. She wanted to tow my car away on the spot, but it was taking too long to get a tow truck to that location. Shoot me!

So my first court date, I send in a friend to say that I couldnt get out of school, and that I require a new date. They gladly give me a new date. My second date comes and I again send in the same friend asking for another date as I am in school. My third date 1 1/2 years later, I walk into court and obviously the cop is not in court, and the judge throws the ticket out of court. The happiest day of my life........I got the court house to stamp my ticket with a void stamp and I lamenated the ticket, and I framed it.

My friend went to his first court date with a lawyer and took the hit of a fine of $600 and 3 points.

I have far too many tickets stories, I could go on all day. let's just say that when I was 16, I hadnt had my licence for more then 2hrs, and i got pulled over for speeding and 2 other tickets....but as usual I got away with all 3 tickets.......

Actually I do have one pending ticket that i will be in court for this month....lets see if my luck has run out.......I have had a good driving record for the past couple of years. This ticket is the smallest that I have ever got....

Insurance I pay about $1000 every 6 months.....So luck must be on my side.

Wow, so far I have been lucky and never gotten a ticket and have only been pulled over once. So I will tell you that story, lol. I was going down an old country highway (45 in a 45, the only time I have ever driven the speed limit on that road) and it was dark and a car comes up behind me (didnt know it was a cop) and gets on my a$$, so I speed up to get him off me, and he keeps on it so I speed up some more. I speed up untill 10-15 over and drive for about 3 miles. As soon as I get into town and slow down for the speed limit change he puts on his lights. I had under glow neons on my BMW at the time and he said thats why I got pulled over, like I belive that. I'm pretty sure he thought I was a drug dealer or something because the first thing he asked was if I had any drugs on me. Cops confuse me a lot, but I think the national speed limit should be raised, these speed limits were created when cars sucked and were unsafe, now that the cheapest crappiest new car can go 100 and have good safety ratings the speed limit should change with the times. And its not like youd have to go that fast, so all the old people can stay going 65 in the right lane.

Back when I was young and stupid ( a whopping 6 years ago ) I got the mother of all speeding tickets...

It was a Thursday night and my girlfriend and I were coming back from downtown Chicago on I90 West on a Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6. It was a beautiful night and not a car in sight. I was going about 130 mph when I saw a police car on the exit in front of me. As I passed and looked in the rear view, I noticed he was now backing down the off ramp. When he finally caught up to me ( I probably could have lost him, but since I had a girl on the back I decided it probably was not a good idea ) and pulled me over the first words out of his mouth were "Are you dumb or just trying to kill yourself ?". 130mph in a 55mph zone. $750 to my lawyer and $250 fine, one week of traffic school, and no points on my license ( even I was impressed with my lawyer ! ).

That is why I no longer ride crotch rockets and now ride Harleys...

Nick
