I rarely open my car up any more because I seemed to be getting tickets left and right. So this morning on the way home from work I decided to hit the back street behind my house and give her the "monthly" WOT.
So i take off down this street with no cars on it. I then turned back around and punched it again on the way back. Well somehow a stupid cop magically fu**ing appeared in the median of the area I was JUST at!! He pulls me over and gives me a ticket for going 66 in a 30, which is $305!!!!!!!!! Not to mention I still owe 8 hours of traffic school form my last one. So I guess my insurance is definetly going up this time.
Oh yah, and my birthday passed a couple weeks ago but I haven't renewed my tag yet. So he gave me a 2nd ticket for that also. I know I "shouldn't have been speeding", but WTF man. No one else was around and it was a 2 lane street!
So again, I ask the question: what the fuck is the point of having a fast car when you can't even use it?????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Put your flame suit on, here comes the holier than thou crowd (you know, the ones who have never sped in their lives) telling you that you shouldn't hate cops because you got caught, or that your the most horrible person in the world for speeding. Duck!
Looks like a case of "bad luck". You just have to pick your spots. Luckily for me a have a nice long four lane bridge with no shoulder...its good for 120+ when no cars are on it. I've been driving on this bridge several times a day for 5 plus years and have yet to see a cop on it.
Trust Me I got a ticket for doing 93 in a 25 and the suspending my lisence for 30 days they wanted 90 day suspention so I would say get a lawyer and I olny paid 130 including court cost
So again, I ask the question: what the fuck is the point of having a fast car when you can't even use it?????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Take it to a track, or use it wisely. I always accelerate full throttle, I just stop soon after the speed limit. Or speed where there is less risk, not going 66 in a 30.

I speed and get caught occasionally, but the cops who pulled me over were just doing their jobs. No reason to get mad at them. It's not THEIR fault that I was speeding, is it?
i can see 66 in a 50 or 55, but why would you go 66 in a 30? If you ask me you deserve to get pulled over. Your best bet is to get a lawyer. Its gonna be expensive, but he will save you alot of money off of your insurance.
btw was there houses along the side of the street? I really hope there wasn't.
sure you can use it, but maybe u should go to the track instead of on the streets it seems u dont have much luck with the po-po. besides they might be head hunting for ya now if you've had as many tickets as you say. good luck and hope things work out for ya somehow.

I have never sped a day in my life!!! And I LOVE cops!!!
He he!! Who am I kidding!!?? I speed all the time, granted not what you did, but I understand! I just never get caught and when I do they always seem to let me go . . . hmmm . . . I wonder why?? Anyways, sucks to be you! Sorry to hear about it, but I would probably get a lawyer too!
Set up a court date go and talk to the officer(or prosicuting aternie) and see if he will reduce it to impeading traffic, pay the fine with no points. All they want is the money, they don't care if you have points. It worked for me, i don't mind paying a fine for being stupid and I get no points.
