SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

alright, here's the story,............. i was heading onto the entrance ramp for the highway going about 75 mph, and i knew that on the highway there isn't any cops....... well i almost reved out 4th gear to get up to speed real quick and when i had 5th floored going about 100 mph, mother f*cking cop way flyin probably going around 120 and pulls right up behind me with his lights on, and so, since its a civic i pulled over as soon as i could. and he only sited me for going 85 (on the entrance ramp), and for tinted windows, and when i was weavin in between cars, didn't use my turn signals. so i got sited for 3 things.

FINES: $286.50

my question, lol: i just got my license on friday............... the speed limit was 55 and he said i was going 85, do you think i am going to get my license suspended or anything? becuase he didn't say anything about it getting suspended.


any ideas on what i should do to help myself.


p.s. i was real nice to the cop to.

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

I hope court will suspend your license. Then you might learn something.

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

ughghgh cmon man.....this is the reason why us teens get a bad rep.....u had ur liscense for 3 days and u got a ticket!!! hopefully ull learn a lesson from this, and stop speeding, cuz instead of bein fined a ticket u coulda killed urself and any other poor person in ur way...as far as the liscense suspension.....i kno u have 1 get outa jail free card with your JOL.....youve already used it...now depending on whether or not this citation counts as 1 (bcause of a single ticket issued) or 3 (bcause u had 3 offenses on it) u might b screwed....but its like a 30 day suspension so thats not that bad....all this shiit is in that little RMV book they give you.....then agn u prolly didnt read that cuz it clearly states DRIVE SAFELY and DONT BREAK THE LAWS lol

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

whats with all the hateing we have all gotten tickets before and we all want are cars faster then there supposed to be , rmg35 has not given us a bad name . so i can say one thing the cop was extra nice for doing that because in most states over 100MPH is considered man slaughter , especially if your in the city limits , and that wouldn't look good on your record and its not like banks or credit card companies are going to look at your driving record to determine if there going to give you a loan

so do this all they want is money and for you not o race again , we all know your going to do it again so just do it where there are no cops

go to your court and say " i just got my license and i have a heavy foot the cop was extra nice and i was wondering what i can do so this wont damage my record , especially when i just got my licenses "

the ll be reasonable about it

ill tell you this i got tickets before i got my license and that was about 7 years ago and no one has ever pulled my driving records and said what the hell happen hear on so and so date all they care about is recent records , NOW if the crime was killing someone with mt car or getting 100MPH tickets like 10 times then there's a concern so be safe

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

well quite frankly there is no excuse...and to be saying "we all have gotten our tickets b4" further proves my point, because i have never gotten a ticket (knock on wood) and dont plan on getting one either....and to say you know you are goin to do it agn jus do it where there are no cops???? thats bullsh1t dont do it at all....you have no right to do anything illegal just because no 1 is watching...."NOW if the crime was killing someone with mt car or getting 100MPH tickets like 10 times then there's a concern"- if you get anymore than 1 for that amount of speed theres only a matter of time b4 you do end up killing someone......so just dont do it again...we all make mistakes....but dont make them regardless of whether or not cops are around...if you wanna go fast go to a track...and imma keep hatin on ppl who do this and imma hate more on ppl who think its okay and promote further law breaking when no1's looking......... lol this post make me sounds nazi-ish so i apologize for that

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

No cops on the highway? Youre a moron. I hope your dad kicks your ass when he sees u got a ticekt.

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

I was gonna comment on that. I like the part how he says "i knew that on the highway there isn't any cops" and a few seconds later he gets busted by the cops. How ****ing stupid is that. i go on highways where there isn't much cop presense but that doesn't mean they don't exist out there. I mean there have been a few times where i'm like "O **** a cop" and i didn't see them. So be wise and don't speed like that, you were going 85 on a 55, thats some major speeding. I speed but its controled, i don't go nuts

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

Ive yet to get a ticket and it is people like that who not only give young kids (Im not in that chair anymore) a bad rep but the main reason why I gotta pay an outrageous insurance bill every month!

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

no, there is never cops on this highway cuz they can't hide anywhere, jersey barriers on both sides. he said he first seen me speedin when he was at a light

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

1) you're dumb, just because there's jersey barriers doesn't mean there's not cops

2) I hope they suspend your license until you're 18 or even better, 21, or my ultimate dream would be that they suspend your license indefinitely, and throw you in jail, there's no reason to ever be going more than 80mph on a crowded highway, let alone more than 100mph

3) I've never gotten a ticket (many many many written and verbal warnings), nor have I been involved in a major accident.

4) I agree with Pete, I hope your dad beats the **** out of you for being an idiot

5) it is never smart to drive like an idiot and do 30 mph over the speed limit in any situation on a public road

6) it is stupid punk kids that do stupid **** like this that result in higher insurance rates for those of us who actually are responsible drivers

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

I think you over-react.

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

I'm sure you agree with 1, 2 is a bit over reaction, but I'm trying to make a point, 3 is true, 4 is true, 5 I'm sure you'd agree with, and 6 is true, inexperienced drivers are the reason why responsible drivers pay more for car insurance

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

i dunno, i just got that speeding thing in me, i love going fast. and its not like i don't know how to drive. lol. considering i was weaving threw cars and everything. i wouldn't really mind a 15 day suspension. but even before all that, i've really already learned my lesson. ever since that, i haven't went over the speed limit yet. this just really sucks....

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

1. I don't agree. His judgement call was wrong due to the lack of experience. This does not mean he is dumb, we all do those things.

5. It's never smart being an idiot. Idiots aren't smart by definition, are they? But doing 30 over does not necesserily mean being an idiot. Under some circumstances this is just fine and safer than doing speed limit under some different circumstances.

6. Insurance is FOR PROFIT business, and insurance companies will use any excuse they can and charge you as much as they can to make more money. Even if all teens majically start driving resposibly, insurance rates will not go down any time soon, so I don't see any reason in bashing your peers who make mistakes, as long as they learn from their mistakes... Just shop around for better rate, this is time spend much more usefull in terms of saving your money.

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

as of right now (before my insurance finds out about my speeding ticket), i am payin 100 a month.

how much do you think it is going to jump up to? like maybe 15-30 dollars more a month?

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

Youve had your lisc for 3 days.......you DONT know how to drive. The streets are not your personal racetrack. Granted, Ill race on the highway from time to time, but its at like 3 am and theres no one out there........thus I dont risk innocent lives and I dont weave in and out of traffic. I hope they take your driving priviliges away for a few years.

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

^ There's a valid point. I don't care how long you were driving with a permit, you certainly can not state that you know how to drive on a public road only having your licence for 3 days. It takes years before you'll actually c alm the f down and start considering the consequences (may be that'll happen some day)

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

who said thats the only experience i have? thats the only "legal" experience i got.

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

Honestly it doesnt matter to me, because quite frankly GOOD drivers DONT do the following

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

so how much do you think my insurance is going up?

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

Frankly - no idea. Guesstimate - it can easily double your rate, especially if the judge will be strict. But it's not going to happen any time soon. First your court date has to come, then court has to decide smth, then it takes a couple of months to get to DMV record, than it takes yet more time for your insurance company to obtain your new DMV record... So, this is not your immediate concern. Your immediate concern is to realize that you know just a bare minimum to be able to drive, and there is still a lot to learn about driving, much more than you know already...

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

^+1

and honestly, for a trifecta like that, you'll be lucky if you can remain insured

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

well im glad every1 is on my side....wen that one dude was sticking up for him and promoting it got me pissed....

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

depends on how you do in court.

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

insurance insurance insurance...hope you do good

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

Yea, had my first accident 6 months after getting my liscense. I was going a little to fast down a big hill after it just rained....lost control, smacked head on with a van, and totaled my first car...it was not fun at all...

Ticket was only about $125, but I lost my only transportation for 3 months...

What I'm trying to get at is that after you completely **** up your car, but able to walk away from it, you learn to slow down. The last thing I want now is to wreck my civic like i did with my old altima...

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

[sm=icon_rofl.gif]


you'll be up to a couple of thousand before you know it

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

OK OK some people misunderstood me supposedly defending the guy , .... did i ever say yea dude next time run from the cops ....no i didn't i just said the truth hes going to do it again , hell majority of us have gotten tickets , and some haven't , when i drive around here i don't race i drive speed limit , on the highway i drive speed limit as well because there are other people not in racing mentality and have kids in the car and don't want to race they just want to get where they want to go...safely , but when we go racing in a exclusive spot that's safe we don't do speed limit ...because its racing and we only race with people that we know .

is it safe no , i never promote that others do it i just say if your going to do it then don't get caught and be safe ( if i didn't express that in the other message then let me do that now DRIVE SAFE , DONT GET INJURED OR INJURE PEOPLE if you can take it to the track then take it there ,

READ THIS

look i'm not on here promoting street racing I'm on here helping people with questions i wasn't evan going to wright anything here about his ticket , the ONLY reason i decided to wright anything was that the kid comes on here to wright about his first ticket that he got and admitted to the real speed and how nice the cop was and he wanted to know what to do about the ticket and the situation , and all he gets is bashing and remarks like

"ughghgh cmon man.....this is the reason why us teens get a bad rep.....u had ur license for 3 days and u got a ticket!!! hopefully ull learn a lesson from this"
and
"I hope court will suspend your license. Then you might learn something. "

the kid didn't want bashing he wanted help , if he wanted bashing he wouldnt sit in front of his computer and type , he would just go talk to his parents . he knows he fuc*ed up but don't bash him , i don't evan know this kid all i know is that if someone needs helpweather they are aregular on this site or evan new there not going to post asking for our advice because they read this post and how there questions are going to get answered .

allot of people did help and are still helping and that's what we should all do -

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

Yes, kid definitely needs help. And no, I don't think what you are telling is going to help him. First thing ishe deadly (literally, this is a question of his life and death) needs to realize that: 1. He does not know a **** about driving yet, and 2. He did a stupid thing driving 100mph with his lack of experience. That's what most people here are trying to do in this thread. If he hear such words from his parents, he does not give it a ****, if he hear this from his fellow drivers, he might give it a thought.

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

My question is what state were you in to get all 3 of those offenses to be such a low fine in oregon that would belike 600-700$ easily in fines.

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

i live in pittsburgh, pa

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

but im thinking about pleading not guilty becuase on the sitation it says "other" for how he caught me speeding. and there is no way a civic is going 85 on a onramp

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

Mine can :D

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

well like you could half way up it, then there is a sharp a*s turn so there is no way that i could be goin 85 maybe 65 tops. but the cop didn't have a radar or wasn't using the lines on the road or anything like that. he just happend to be at the red light.

what do you think i should tell the judge to help me not loose my license. becuase i really think i did learn my lesson on this one, cuz ever since on sunday with that ticket, i haven't went over the speed limit yet. so its starting to get to me, in a way. im just trying to keep my license more than anything right now.

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

you can go to court on it& hope the cop doesnt show up
if he does you could be screwed[&:]

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

Well my civic can do 85 on the onramps here in oregon and Im not boosted. But basically there is not much of a way to fight a ticket unless he screws up when is writing it

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

Dude...just be a man about it and accept your punishment, don't try to bull**** your way out of it. You wereretarded for going over 100 mph, weaving, etc on a crowdedhighwayand you know it. Just accept your punishment, you know you're guilty...

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

oh i know, but its the fact that he just guessed on my speed and didn't use a radar or anything. if he used a radar or something, then yea, i wouldn't go to court

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

Step 1: Think of your friends. Any of their parents lawyers? If yes, ask them for help. A girl I know's dad helped me knick 500$ worth of ticket down to 300$ for free.

Step 2: If you don't have it, go to a thrift store, buy a nice shirt, tie, and slacks.

Step 3: If you got a free lawyer to help, do what he/she says, if not. Go to court, cleaned up and wearing your nice clothes. Smile at the judge and tell him it was a beginners mistake. There's a good chance you'll just get a deferred sentence, meaning you pay the fine and court fees, but the ticket doesn't go on your record unless you mess up again in a time he will set. Getting it deferred will save your ass from raised insurance later on.

Step 4: Buy a Escort Passport, and be alert when you drive.

RE: SH*T!!!!! SPEEDING TICKET
 

alright man, thanks. at least you ain't like every1 else telling my im some idiot. cuz i know im not the only one on here that gets speeding tickets.

is there any way i can make payments to him, cuz you know, i don't have 265.50 layin around
