Default Got my first ticket this weekend ...

I was driving out with the family to Indiana and a cop heading the other way nabbed me for doing 56mph in a 40. [:@] He actually stopped traffic to spin around on a two way street. Then as I talked to him he had to tell me about how he has a 70 Chally. Then proceeded to still give me a ticket... Anyone ever know how to get a warning???

It helps to be a good looking female. For us guys, you can't be more than 5 over.

Sorry

In so cal we typically go 10mph beyond the speed limit, but 16mph above is a bit much.
It's common for people to get tickets for doing 50 in 35 mph zones.

I was pulled over for the second time on Sunday afternoon. The first time was just to check out the car. This time was a warning for my exhaust. First gear at close to 30 MPH with the Flowmasters in front of City Hall will piss the cops off.

The cop said with stock exhaust I am more likely to get off with a warning for speeding less than 13 over. He said this exhaust on this this car is begging for a ticket. I like it.

16 over is pushing it lol. I like to stay about 7-8 over the posted limit. Better safe than sorry. :P

If youre going to get a ticket you could at least do it for something respectable and worthy of the Challenger name and heritage... say 130 in a posted 70 zone?? Shame on you... [sm=nono.gif]

haha all Ive ever gotten was a warning. Was doing 90 on the highway. Everything was good to go and he started walking away and then came back after spotting the multitude of open beverages in the back. Lol I said hey I'll take a breathalizer if you want, he said just be careful have a good night. Gotta love georgia cops lol.
