At least nobody got a 73 in a 25 like me. lol. Luckily, my girlfriends mom knows the magistrate so that should lessen the blow.

Better slow down or you will be in jailed pretty soon. How old are you by the way? 5 tickets is no fun.

People are so mean here. EVERYONE speeds from time to time. i got a ticket for "to fast for the conditions" going the speed limit on a rainy day so don't be so quick to judge everyone. The way i look at it is speed limits are made for average drivers in average automobiles; In turn, i concider myself to have a much better than average automobile with better braking, handling, and traction than say a ford explorer. Also i consider myself to be a better driver than all the DUMSH*TS i consitantly see on the roads, like my girlfriend . Moral to my story is i believe i have gained the right to drive at what i feel is a comfortable pace because i have gone out of my way to be a better driver and to purchase a safer car; be it legal or not.

Get a lawyer, mine for example donates the fee for the ticket to various foundations that are in need at the time, explains why he should donate to that particular foundation to the judge and gets every one of my tickets off without lieing. He has a 100% turnout. look for a lawyer like this. But then charges me $300 and keeps it LOL! which by the way saves me so much more money then i will spend over the 2 years of raised insurance while the ticket is on my record.

Also invest in a radar detector. For me i only don't speed in areas where i remember being a popular cop spot, the radar detector covers the rest; For the most part.

Just slow down and dont drive wreckless. Thats the anwser to your problems. Even if they think someone in ur family is a cop or something it may help once but not all the time.

Yes people speed from time to time but most likely when it is safe. Just because you have a "better" car doesn't mean you can drive faster than the speed limit in the rain and that the car will handle the same in the rain. Also what makes you a better driver than any other? Did you take any performance driving school? Or are you just some of these owners that just because they have a better car that they are a better driver? Just slow down and drive safe and drive fast if you want when safe and give regards to other people.

Yeah, and it's not how you stand next to your car it's how you drive your car.

Make sure you have the ring ready to put on her finger or you will get jailed.

I'm a better driver because my first automobile was an R6 and i had to learn to be a safer driver than most people in order to pretty much stay alive. Yes i did take 2 extra driving classes other than the required drivers ed, and i do believe people who pay more attention while driving are the best drivers. I by the way fall right into that catagory because i am extremly OCD and freak out if i'm not exactly in the middle of the lane, or if i hit the little turtles, or if someone is to close to my car, or if i am driving on a crack that could unevenly wear my tires.

And it's not the fact that i have a better car so i can drive faster, it's that the car can safely travel at higher speeds then for again a great example a Jeep Wrangler.

And im not arrogant, it's not my fault that im a better driver then your 5-10mph dumba$$. I'm not making it harder for anyone because i don't have any tickets or accidents, so im not even in your little statistically backed theory.
