Have you been pulled over for speeding?

I've recieved 3 speeding tickets so far and they were all back in 1997. 2 of them I was doing 5 mph over the limit. Small town city cops have lots of time on their hands.

I never go over the speed limit in the cities and on the highways, I pretty much do the limit, 5 over, or just go with the pack.

Hoo boy, when I get the ole "Pull over" treatment I never do it lightly!! I've only gotten two tickets (knock on wood) and have been in the car for two of my hubbys tickets

The first ticket was really really stupid. I was out on the indain reservation *some parts of our city is reservation land, patrolled by the reservation police* Well I guess they were bored and they pulled me over. I was going *gasp* 2 mph over the limit. The guy pulls me over, then calls backup

so here I am with two cars pulling me over and my mom is with me *groan* Im suprised they didn't search the car (It was my dads car)

Does some girl and her mom look like a danger to society? Sheesh...

The last one I had just gotten the beast I have now. It was 3 am and I was on the highway. I had just passed the sign that turned the speed limit to 45 from 65. I was going 79 (didnt know it though, I didnt think my car could even go that fast lol) of course a state cop (female state cop, the worst kind) was hiding in the back road (No lights or anything) next to the sign. She pulls me over and tells me I should take an alternate route next time (gee thanks for the advice Mary Sunshine). I go into court and the judge was nice enough to drop it from a $250 or so ticket to a $65 so long as I promised not to do it again

(Glad he didn't remember the time the hubby got pulled over in my other car going 140 in the same area...oops luckily the cop who pulled us over realised that he and us were the only people on the road for miles and reduced it to a 10 over ticket lol)
