Default Street Racing.

Alright guys, so ya know, I've had my car for 2 years and run it on the street all the time, making sure there is no traffic etc, and never got in trouble. But this week my luck ran out and I got caught on my bike (wasnt really even racing, i just kinda got on it and the guy next to me thought i was racing) so I got hit with $1200 worth of tickets, possibly 6 points, which is more than enough to pull my licsense. So just for you guys (cough.. all of us... cough) be careful, check your surroundings, and double check them, and be safe! Don't make dumb mistakes like me. Take it easy fella's (and the token lady) and be safe!

Damn dude, that suck's.
Maybe a lawyer can get that thing knocked down a peg or two.
Make a couple of phone call's and see if anyone can help you out with that.
Good luck.

Damn that sucks. Tell them you are guilty of having a little fun, but you can't help what someone beside you does. I would be like "Why would I waste my time with some slow car, I was on a bike "

Good luck man!

Is that why you deleted your bike from your signature? Are you selling it?

It's kind of lame how quickly you can be going fast, drop two gears, flick the wrist, 100+. Good and bad, I guess, but I'm sorry to hear about your circumstances. You do need to get a lawyer, though, you will save money on insurance and fines.

Get a lawyer, it will cost you, but save you in the long run

They know if they try and pull out to go after them, they would be gone. At least thats what local cop in Cocoa Beach told me..

I never even thought about how easy it'd be in the city, just run a couple lights, and cut between cars, hmm.

I'd be screwed if a cop was following me though because my bike doesn't have any mirrors right now.
