man tickets sucks ass! i have gotten wayy too many tickets. i've had 12 speeding tickets since i first gotten my license and got my license suspended once for 3 months. it really sucks not being able to drive anywhere with no license and it kills you to pay your outstanding insurance bill. mine was 650 a month when i lived back in MA! it was from my old truck. i've been pulled over more than that and could have been arrested a few times for 3 reckless driving but since i am deaf i managed to play completely dumb and got away a few times. haha other than that. tickets are definitely overrated!
Really deaf? You use ASL?

at my parents way in a small town you can get away with a ton of S**T. the cops are all so dumb. you pass them on the highway speeding at night you jus go threw the ditch and turn the truck off, there too lazy to follow you and the one time they did it was in the winter and a cop car and two cop trucks got stuck in a bunch of snow, they'll think twice before they try that again lol
I have only got 2 tickets in my home state of PA. The first cost me my license for 6 months, the second cost me it for 3. Both times I was clocked going at least 30mph over the speed limit. The first time the cop was so mad he almost couldn’t talk when he walked up to the truck. "Do you know how fast you were going sir?" "No officer my dad always told me to pay attention to the road when I was going that fast” he lost it and I lost my license.
Those two tickets pale in comparison to the amount I have got traveling the country for racing and work. One weekend in Virginia I got pulled over going to and coming from a race. One time in Ohio I was sited for excessive acceleration from a stop light. Cop said I was doing a burn out and I explained that black smoke comes from the pipes white smoke comes from the tires! There are many many more to...

A classic line a friend of mine used one night when an RCMP office pulled him over.(female Cop)
Officer: "Do you know why I pulled you over sir?"
Friend: Yes I'm good looking and you're lonely, It's friday night, so you want to ask me on a date!
apparently she laughed at his wit and let him off the ticket..No Date.

Had a friend w/a new Ford and we were on a beer run, when whe hit the pkwy I thought there was a trooper behind us and he floored it, when we got to Mannington, Place we buy beer, there was a trooper parked in the shadow's and my friend said he can't get us that's intrapment... just as he said it the trooper I thought I saw behind us put his blue lights on, we pulled over in the beer joints pking lot and as the officer was checking everythign out since it was a brand new truck and no up to date insurance and a temp tag...The beer joint flipped the sign around from open to closed and with a sigh the trooper knew why were were going so fast and laughed and said since our night was going to be so sucky w/o beer why make it any worse and let him go...O' it was 95 in a 65 then.

my wife got pulled over in colo. for 10 over but she wasn't speeding, I was coming up behind her in my motorhome and his radar mistook me for her. I ran up on her pretty quick so I know she wasn't speeding and boy was she pissed, she got all over that cop about it too but he didn't back down, wonder if he had his bullet?

Well all that power my truck has got me in trouble today. I might have be messing around and drove up on a KY state trooper running a little fast. When i seen him I was running 85 mph in a 45 mph zone. I managed to get slowed down to 63 before he clocked me. He gave me a speeding ticket for 55 in a 45 so it's not all bad, but still bad enough. Got a nice big $163 dollars that i owe to the state now.
Ouch!!I often forget how fast I am goin too.Sometimes i'll be cruising along,look down and see that i'm doing 80-85!Using the cruise helps me,but I figure I am lucky,because for one ticket ya got,think of how many times you sped and got away with it.. Make your donation and be careful with the new hp!! be safe...
