Young corvette owners..
Do you guys ever get out of tickets??
I sure as hell dont. Everytime im pulled over for ANYTHING, i just might as well have a pen on me to sign the ticket. When I had my camaro, I got let off alll the time, since having c6's i have not been let off with a warning once! And they always ask if its my car!? I have been pulled over in the past two years at least 5 times for no front plate (WHICH i refuse to put on)... craaazzzy! AAAnyways, i was wondering if its just me..

I drive the same way as when I drove the camaro, actually less aggressive as I have matured and value my car more... I get pulled over for going 9 mph over speed limit... I have been pulled over 3 times for less than 15 mph over.. on hwy.. I love love love my vette, but been considering going cts-v cause i feel like i better be driving perfect or im goin down!!

I am 26 look like maybe 20 because I get carded everywhere.. For everything lol. It must be different down here in Victoria.. I have had my Vette for about 2 1/2 weeks.. No front plate, just a filler. I actually passed up 3 cops leaving lights like and idiot and none of them came after me. I passed one cop going 60 in a 35 and he just chucked the deuce at me... I am simply in love with this car hahaha I got tickets left and right in my GTO.
But that does suck. I went up there to get a tune on my vet and raced a new Camaro up and down Bltway8 then ran a c6 coming back and a trans am on 59 and passed a couple cops here and there and nothing.. came home clean

I know what you mean I havent been pulled over yet, might be talking to soon but. Everytime I go by a cop I get dirty looks and have been followed before I think its just a corvette thing. When I had my cobra,camaro I never got looks apparently some of them have nothing better to do well at least around here that is.

I was never pulled over in my Vette. I drive like an old person most of the time though. I will do an occasional jaunt on the street, but getting in trouble back in my really early 20's slowed me down A LOT.

im 17 with a black 01 z06, i had the car for 2 weeks and got pulled over 2 times. Once for "not wearing my seat belt" when I was, and once for not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign, it really does suck

I drive this Z06 everyday for nearly 2 years now. I have never been pulled over in it nor do I speed. As you get older you develop a safer less aggresive driving style, if not you will end up taking the bus. I know a few in that category. lol

I've had my Z06 for about a year and a half (i'm 25 now).. never been pulled over. No front plate, loud B&B bullets, questionable tint..etc..
I think the key is to follow the traffic laws.. LOL

Lets see im guessing its a houston thing
I have YET to get a ticket in my vette. In every other car i own/owned I have.
Been pulled over for no seat belt, 10 over, 15 over, 47 over and nothing
I told them I e=was heading right home after and didnt give them any trouble and streets were always dead about 4-5 in the morning.
No front plate. Dark tint. no exhaust.

I'm 19 with a 2001 Procharged Zo6, along with other goodies putting down around 540rwhp. I haven't been pulled over, but I also do not drive like a retard. Or is it because it rarely comes out of the garage? With just a hair over 26k on it, I can't rack up too many miles!

Life is a very short trip... when you're dead, you're DEAD!
Enjoy it every chance you can.... this isn't some sort of fine wine ('63 GrandSport) and even if it was a Bugatti.... my reasoning is listed in the 1st sentence. "Smoke 'em if you got 'em."
