A few years ago I was in my friends 600hp Golf. We were doing about 120 mph and blew by a state trooper clocking people on the side of the road. We saw him come out in the rear view and my friend gunned it. For about 3 miles we were doing 150+ mph. We pulled off the next exit and drove off the highway and parked it.
We never got a ticket. As for me............ I have never had a ticket and have had my license for 8 years. Now with that said I will probably get a ticket today.:thumbup:

Worst not too proud 184kmh in a 70 kmh. I was driving slow then I hammered it like there was no tomorrow pasted 220 got nailed. I was testing out my new brake pads(I was going about 80 all the way) except for that last km which. I said to myself lets gun it there is no cops I'm heading for the bridge at 1h00 am there is only one exit left. Bad news he was parked there. He goes to me why did you nail the gas all of a sudden I told him: well I'm testing my new brake setup you can look in the trunk my old pads and disk are there. Results 800$ fine no points.
Note:nobody was on the road |

typical small town roads, a 65mph highway converts to a 45mph city road with little notice. I got clocked right after the sign doing 80, the guy threatened to send me to jail. But alas here in Louisiana we have this tradition known as "getting it fixed" which I did so I never even had to pay a dime. ahh crooked politics...

Was on one of California's known speeding highways. Highway 85 coming home from Cupertino. Going a solid 85 (85 on 85). Which pretty much is the known speed. So I am just driving down the roadway and a Integra Type-R blew past me and nearly clipped my front bumper. Needless to say, I wasn't too happy. Floored it hit around 135. (A solid 30 seconds later

I personally have only had a 66 in a 45, as my only ticket....
BUT a good friend of mine in high school got 7 moving violations in a single week... 2 speeding tickets, 1 driving an unsafe vehicle (The car was on fire), 2 reckless driving (for driving the on fire car and for driving over 15 mph the posted limit), 1 reckless endangerment (he had a passanger while the car was on fire), 1 obstructing a roadway (The fire was because of leaking oil that ended up on the roadway)...

Ive had more 86 in 55's than I can count. My best was when I was getting ready to propose to my wife. I drove down to the diamond district in NYC to pick out THE ring. After a long morning I found the ring, and bought it. I had to meet my then girlfriend (now wife) back in westchester in less than 30 min. So I jumped in my 1998 Cherokee Sport, and started to fly up the West Side Hwy/Henry Hud. There was light traffic and I was driving the truck like it was a GT3. I finally looked in my rearview and about 1/4 mile back I see a Highway patrol weaving through the traffic I just weaved through, so I just pulled over and waited. I'm thinking I have a receipt for an engagement ring and a decent story, he gets there and flips on me. The story got rid of reckless driving but I still got the speeder. I noticed he wrote a P instead of a B for my plate, so I decided to fight it, I fight them all. I show up in court with the only defense of this typo. We get in front of the judge, the Hwy Patrol cop starts rattling off what I did, weaving, clocking me, his speedometer was calibrated, he was trained to visually estimate speed the whole thing, Judge says to me whats your defense, I say "Well you see this here P is supposed to be a B." He says is that it? I said with a smile ( I was swearing I was out of it) yes sir, he says this isnt a parking ticket, guilty as charged.

I was at a light ready to turn left in the middle of the night when another car...an American car pull alongside me in the second lane to turn left...well, guy had a car that was lowered, tinted windows, completely blacked out...so I gun my GTI and start leaving the dude for dead...he tried to hang but was getting waxed...
...then he turned on his blue lights and pulled me over. DOH!!!! When he showed up at my window he was laughing...so I knew I was in with a chance...we chatted about the car and then he let me go...no warning...nothing.

nothing exciting. 88 in a 65.
Ive been twice falsely accused of not signaling. I signal 100% of the time. It really pisses me off when cops make things up. And what can I do... cant fight with the jerk.
