I have been pulled over for almost everything, my car was too loud, tires were too wide, fog lights were on when it wasn't foggy, speeding, stereo was too loud, I even got pulled over for going 25 in a 30 at 2am, but everytime I got stopped for drag racing the cop said, "did you win?" and I said yes so he replies "well at least the ticket will be worth it", then he comes back and tells me to go home and gives me a warning every single time.

Foglights on when it's not foggy? They'd have to arrest half this state. Trucks, cars, you name it. Makes you stand out more not to have 'em on.
And tires too wide? That's just taking the ****.
My only speeding ticket was in my rickety old '85 Toyota Van some years ago. 53 in a 40 but he only put me down for five over, so I guess I can't complain too much. Since then I've had a Miata, third-gen 5.0 Firebird and the Trans Am, and no speeding tickets. Weird.
MjMaro: 100+ in a 55 and a court date? I don't envy you, mate. Let us know what happens.

ok, so since its cali, and i havnt been to traffic school in over 7 years, i am eligiable to go and clear this off my record.
whats funny is that this is the same cop that stopped me when i had my grand am, three times. luckily he didnt recognize me, or else he would have arrested me. in the GA, he stopped me for racing a mercedes c320 (i won), weaving through traffic, and running a red. he let me go each time. this time it was a speed trap, so he wasnt about to let me go.

i got my first ticket in the T/A today. SEATBELT VIOLATION. wooohooo . He also tested my window tint and it was 3%, let me off for that though
I spent the night in jail one night last spring for racing my old grand national against an srt-4. Payed my lawyer 50 bucks he got it reduced to probation through there city, which means if i don't get another speeding ticket within the year in st. charles im good. I won the race BTW

i got a sweet 115km/h in a 60 zone(and it was a school zone but it was after hours). Anyways the cop was on foot(in the middle of the road), he flagged me in and shows me the radar gun while im parking. Anyways i get out and nervously start shootin the **** with him, and talk for about 20 mins. At the end of it im like this guys gonna give me a break...or at least i hope. He then gives me a 40 buck fine(no points) so long as i dont take it to court(lol i was gonna give him 20 bucks for just bein cool!).....he did point out as I was leaving that i could have had a suspended license for 6 mo, but then what would i do with a fine car like this without a license?!!! Ive almost completely stopped on the street racing, its a HOT issue here(toronto) after a cabby got killed last yr by 2 **** ups who were racing the exact same model benzs in the middle of downtown toronto, Its as serious as dui
