1st ticket in Evo

Coming home today from san diego to santa cruz and I was yanked over around newport beach going 95. Damn this evo loves to go faster than is acceptable and I should have been much more careful, and i never toped 80 the rest of the way home. So this sucks, but live and learn and not more 90 on the 405. Flame on.

Meh, sorry to hear it. Heck of a way to start off the new year. Oh well, it happens.

Hope the fine isn't too crazy.

+1 - I'd pay a lot more for a good lawyer.


I'm also surprised that someone hasn't chimed in yet about the real reason that you got pulled over is not actually because of speeding but because of profiling officers watching out for import drivers.

I just got pulled over between San Jose and Santa Cruz. Officer marked 60+ in a 50, but he told me I could just go to traffic school on the internet and not have to pay the fine or have a point. Does this mean insurance won't hear about it?
