Hey, I just call it like I see it. I have been screwed by cops before. Since then, I have fought all major citations (guilty or not) and have won, or at least reduced the charges. It pays to fight back!

If you are so smart GSRMIN then why did you wreck your bike ????? Anywho, My 4 beers were well over a 3 hour time period, and someone (me) who weighs 200 lbs, Well you can do the math and see that I was no where near intoxicated and was just having a little fun much like yourself with your bike.

from the looks of it he went down on the dragon, which isnt that hard to do. i don't see that as any justification as to how smart a person is.

As of now I dont know how much it will cost me, State of KY is ghoetto and doesnt list the cost of citations, but I think I will just pay it and be done. I thought I would share my first ticket in my evo with you guys.

oh by the way the cop did compiment the car!!!!
Is that something to be proud of? Thanks for rasing my car insurance rate

I go to court for every ticket I get in NJ. Some out of state BS tickets i didn't bother fighting because it's a pain to go to court out of state.

Almost every prosecutor I've ever ran into will plea bargain everything with everyone. Sure it's a process and it will kill a few hours one day, but it's better than getting the full points penalty

Your ticket might be under 100 but check the court cost they are 130 + your violation. KY suck. A Nucciense of exhaust cost me 150, and it was a 20 dollar ticket. I got screwed!

my first ticket in my evo, illegal u turn. dismissed. LOL!!

that sux. here in VA, reckless can add up to suspended license, jail time, huge fines. depends on how big of an offense. My friend went to jail for it. He was assumed at an average speed of 170 sumthing. (turbo gsr integra). it was an ugly offense lol.

i have never drank a sip of alcohol in my life & no i'm not 1 of those religious hipocrates either. my family is prone to extreme cases of violence when under the "licka" so i just chose to never drink. all that $ spent on drinks can go on car parts. besides since i spend most of my driving time over 100mph, so i'm probly the LAST person u want drinking...

Amen bruthah! Never drank, smoked, done any drugs, and I'm 34. That junk is a curse on mankind and there are so many better things you can do with that money and so many cooler ways to die.

And no I'm not religious either...since when did having self-control mean you were automatically religified anyway?

Hahaha...that's me genius, and what the hell does that have to do with DUI? We were shooting a movie, I was the camera bike, and the guy in front checked-up mid-corner, so I had to either toss it or hit him.

You don't have to get so defensive, we're just trying to keep you from getting screwed by "Tha Man".

Dude... I understand where you are coming from... listen... take it as a warning... be careful... we all do things we regret... pay the ticket, be glad you did not get a DUI or even worse hurt or kill someone and learn a lesson from the mistake you made... I dont want to see your whip wedged in between two trees on this site with a RIP title... you feel me?
