Yup you guessed it, I got a speeding ticket on my way to work this morning. This morning felt a bit coppish so I took it easy all the way to work on the freeway. The second to last turn before I arrived at work, I sped up to catch a green turn arrow and the next thing I knew...
Radar at 54 mph in a 35....

I know, I know...

Just wanted to vent...traffic school here I come!!!

 

I thought I saw a thread about you getting a ticket prior to this... Could be wrong..

 

Did Johnny Law at least tell you "nice Maxima?"

Seems it would almost ease the pain..

 

i think he did get a ticket going 100 + on a open road. good luck jsmith, i feel your pain.

 

Fight it! I fight them all. Plead no contest and they will wave the points. now go and buy a V1

 

Or slow down...

I got 2 tickets in 2 days in Jersey a couple of months ago... I've slowed down significantly ever since. First off I HAD to go to court but I talked it down to $89 total (no surcharge). The second one was like 84 in a 65, so I figure I'll bite the bullet and pay the $190 fine... it's not like I didn't deserve it (I was actually going MUCH faster when the laser caught up to me ).

Ever since then I've rarely gone about 80-85... but going 55-60 is just ridiculous around here (and dangerous) on the highways.

 

I've gotten 4 speeding tickets within the last year which equals license suspension in the good ol' state of Illinois. I had to go to an 8 hour traffic class a couple of weeks ago to get a probationary license. I've slowed down significantly since then. Pisses me off to watch other people fly by me and not get pulled over

 

Yes, I got a ticket last summer, 107 on the open highway in the middle of the desert, 2 points on my record and no traffic school allowed...
At least I can make this one disappear with traffic school. But now I have to be very careful and like Viguera said driving like 55-60 is ridiculous around here as well...oh well!!

Speeding tickets bit! You must have a really important job though, b/c the last thing I’m doing is speeding going to work!

 

something about those silver 6th gens........................

 

yeah they try to hard to keep up with those Onyx 6th gens

 

HAHAHA, but obviously he got the ticket cause he was in front...

 

LOL

 

....

 

Hey Jsmith, I hope you are going to do the online traffic school... I tried it last year, and it was great~~ Costs less, easier, faster, extremely hassle free~~ Just my 2 cents..

 

Yes, I've done it before but I don't think I can do it for tickets recieved in Orange County, at least thats's how it was before I will look into it for sure, it took me like 4-5 lunch breaks and I was done, but it took me a long time to get the on-line school to submit my certificate. I had to call them like 5 times and ended up yelling at them and sending it in myself...
