    Speeding Tickets?

    I was just wondering, how many people here have gotten at least one speeding ticket?

    Just a random question in my brain from a little incident that happened today...I think you know what happened seeing as my question lol.

    I have never gotten an actual ticket, but have gotten warnings several times in my life. If you get three written warnings in a year, it counts against your insurance, but I have never had more than one in a year.

    I've never...knock on wood. I guess I still have lots of years for that. I've only had my licence for 6 years.

    I haven't in over 30 years of driving, but I know I've been very lucky. I try never to be the only fast car on the freeway, that helps, and that's the only place that I speed. I drive only slighly over the limit in neighborhoods. And I've never gone over 85, has anyone else? Probably people who have driven on the open stretches of places like Nevada.

    I've only been stopped a few times. I remember the first time well because I stupidly leapt out of the car right after stopping. Fortunately, I started babbling in a British accent so the cop knew the error was cultural. (I'd forgotten to put my new tabs on.)

    One in my life and it was a long time ago. I was going 50 mph in a 35 mph zone. That guy was going to nail me and my red car, no matter what! My husband (now ex-husband) was furious at me! Never could understand how he got so mad at me when he had gotten a speeding ticket before I did!

    I have been very lucky, I've never been pulled over. Only been driving for 10 years though, so I suppose it will probably happen someday. Though I would be just fine if it didn't happen!

    I used to be very bad!
    My first one was just a few months after I got my license!
    I had a Camaro for a few years... enough said!
    At one point I had 4 tickets on my license!
    (woops! That's a lot of points! My car insurance went Waaaaay up!)
    The most expensive one was when I was caught going 92 in a 60.
    As soon as I sold that car I didn't get speeding tickets anymore... Hummm... go figure!
    I've gotten myself out of 2 tickets by crying!

    Wow, this is my first time I ever got pulled over and I'm 19! Wow, I'm glad I"m not the only one who has gotten one. I was wanting to get some gas on my lunch break, so I went down to the gas station and found a nice line up of cars waiting to get gas. When I finally got gas and got back in my car, it was 3 minutes left of my lunch and my work is like 6 mins away or 10 something like that.

    Anyways I didn't want to be late so I was speeding 19 over the speedlimit and just as I went around a corner a cop caught me from a small parking lot he was sitting in. Luckily he was a very nice cop but his ticket charge wasn't noice

    Nope ~ Not yet ~ Of course, I've probably just jinxed myself!
    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.
