Hey, I live in what used to be the speeding ticket capital of North America. The year I got my Supra, we got more speeding tickets per capita in this city than anywhere else on the continent. Local enforcement has moved from speed traps to photo radar. As at 2001, we got more photo radar tickets per capita than anywhere else in Canada, I don't know about the rest of the continent, but I figure it's gotta be close.

Funny thing is, that I've only had one ticket in the Supra, and that was because I forgot to renew my driver's license -- I got stopped at a checkstop, and my license had expired a month earlier. Oops.

700 pounds of fat girls? Eww... I've been driving for 3 years now and I have one ticket, going 90 in a 65 down 81 south in VA, it should have been a wreckless, but the officer was nice to me, thanks cop'man... about FFX County cops, I've never got pulled over by them but when I was in an accident the guy didn't even get the names of some of the witnesses... STUPID... anyway, 4 years and no ticket is good...

Back in September, I got what I call a "ricer" ticket.

$66 dollar moving violation for having blue hood lights.

Normally I have them turned off when I drive around, especially if I notice a cop, I flip them off, let them pass, then I turn them back on... this lady, she was a B****. Oh well, I guess that's what I get for being a ricer

A month or so later, Choopi "accidentally" burnt the wires when he was installing indiglo gauges that ended up not working. Oh well.

yes, it's the police who are at fault for your consistently illegal driving.
95% of my tickets were for doing 10-15 miles over the speed limit....those are **** tickets but they still add up.

"I was only going 15 MPH over the limit."

Really, so it's ok to break the law a little bit?

Come on, you were breakin the law and you got caught. Suck it up.

Haha... excatly, 1 MPH over is breaking the law, so going 10 MPH over is breaking the law times TEN, seems like a reasonable ticket to me...
