Default speedin tix...

I was on my way to meet up with my friends to shoot some hoops...so I cruising on high way 280 south with my top down and a big smile on my face... (finally the sun's out)...

while i was changing lane, i heard this loud siren behind me...sh*t...i was thinking u gotta be kiddin me....i was just enjoyin my s and didnt even pay attention to my speed.....(im not a reckless driver)

he pulled me over and gave me a fat tix of 85pmh even after i begged so hard...man...there went my day......just ruined a perfect day for me...

dman........y do cops have to ruin people's day like that.....well....the truth is....after i bought my s....i've been havin trouble driving under the speed limit....the carz just....TOO nice.......

Don't blame the cops (the highway patrol really); they're just doing there job. You should blame all the politicians who decide that our highways would be safer if they invested in speed control instead of drivers education. And since this is a democracy (sorta) you should really blame all the ignorant s who think that "speed kills" but driving like a moron is "A OK"

85 really is too fast man......can't blame the trooper for pulling you over and giving you a ticket

blame institute of highway safety (aka the ins companys) which donates all sorts of equipment to police to facilitate ticket giving and insurance rate increasing.

yeah unfortunately 85 isn't exactly going over by just a little. hard to get out of that ticket. but at least the weather should be good for the next week so you can go out cruising and forget about the ticket.

I paid $230 (including traffic school) for an "80+" ticket 3 years ago. It is not cheap by any means. But with the flow of traffic nowadays being 80... I don't think 85 is that fast.

Trial by declaration is definitely the way to go!!!
