Default After 4 years, they got me..

Well after 4 years they caught me. Ive been without a ticket for that long. I had just got on the highway (I-80 in Illinois) and the semi was in front of me. This being a fast highway I dropped into 3rd and passed him. Got back in the right lane and as I get over the hill, there sits 13 state troopers. And I was the next guy on the list. Yep. 86 in a 55. Ouch. I got lucky as I was curtious to the officer and he let me have 84 in a 55 which is only 29 over. (Wreckless is 30 over) $115 dollars and a class and i still got my clean record. suicide

I only made it like a month. Then when I finished a 6 month probation period so it wouldn't go on my record, I got another ticket (not for speeding).

I think it was Hootie who never had a ticket...?

yeah, when i had my truck, i got three tickets in two years. i was trying to top out my dakota on I95 and it would only go 95mph. i was so pissed. but the state trooper got me. i told her i had diarreha...she didn't buy it. $275. but since i've had my tib, i've only gotten pulled over once (for racing), and i got a warning because i was courteous to the officer. btw, i won the race

yes, it's the police who are at fault for your consistently illegal driving.
