For all of you who's been getting ticket because you drive EVO

This is just wrong. I have driven 4 cars in last 6 years and I had 2 ticket in that period. None when I was driving my volvo 960.


Now within 5 month period, I've had 6 tickets already. I'm so sick of this shlt.

I just got pulled over tonight, while the lady who was doing least 10mph faster than me in front of me gets away with it.

I'm going to fight this ticket and I'm sick of this bs.

that's the site and it contains some good advice.

I've done research on just about all police laser and I'm going to fight and pay no more.

i hate it when officeres stereotype just because of the car. its such a bs way for them to "get away" with giving a ticket. unless on the otherhand someone did something to deserve that ticket. sorry to hear that this has happened its such a pain in the *** to have to go to court if its not needed. good luck in fighting it.

It's 9pm, 4 lane road, i'm lost, coming down this 35 degree hill in my 4th gear.

Still gets pulled over. There are 3 cars in front of me, i'm the last car coming down.

Everyone is doing the same speed.

You know, If I was speeding, I wont mind paying. But this is just ridiculous.

i'm in Seattle, and i've owned an '03 evo and traded it in for a MR. in both cars, i have not had real problems with law enforcement...
i have gotten pulled over a few times, but was able to get off of all of them (knock on wood). in one case, the guy was cool enough about it to say "nice car, take care of her", and walk away after telling me to slow down (79 in a 60).

i think it has a lot to do with the region in which you live. it seems as if they're just cooler about it over here.

So let me see if I can understand your situation. You are mad because you are getting ticketed when you aren't breaking the law? Hmm....

You know about karma right? If you post crap like that, you're going to get a huge ticket within 3 month. And when you do, I hope you remember what you said on this board.

dirt.

you obviously don't have the brain power to read what I wrote. dirt *****, go somewhere else to post.

Id do alot of research before going to court......make sure you can present a strong case. When you go to court the first thing they are gonna notice is that you have already been ticketed 6 times.....wether you were at fault or not. Tough situation man.....I'd do my homework on this one if you're gonna fight it........

Hey bud after reading your post I really feel for ya. Here are a few tips, after you get this covered I recommend going to radarbusters.com and ordering the Blinder M-20 Laser Jammer. It works 100% of the time and is a really awesome product I love mine. Now for some information to help you get out of this stupid ticket.


This is a great site and they will help you out.
http://www.speedtrap.org/index.html

On this site they also offer the legal defense kit its very good and helps prepare you for court and lets you OWN the officer hardcore.

Good luck and if you need any help let me know and I'll do what ever I can.

Very whitty retort. Truth must be painful. Here's an idea, don't speed and voila....no tickets. Been pulled a couple times in the Evo...perhaps I'm just too nice a guy since no tickets. But you won't see me whining like a little "dirt,*****" if I do get a ticket for violating the law.


Oh yea, Karma is B.S.
