Default tickets

Whelp, just got my first ticket today for "not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign" for $120. It wasn't even a rolling stop, it was slower than that, but the policeman was sitting behind some bushes around the corner, just waiting for someone. So there goes that new worm rod I was planning on getting... :P

That crap happens.


I got my first ticket in Wadley, Alabama for doing 70 in a 55 mile zone even though I wasn't in Wadley - I was a good 5 miles out of their jurisdiction on a straightaway highway that should have been rated for 65 mph and the guy who was a wadley cop saw an opportunity to get some fine revenue. Looked just like Barney Fife too.

I think 199 and up is called a major velocity infraction.
I have exhibition driving,racing the gambit...even going to slow.
But no felonies..I too have mellowed out...

Haha 120 bucks for not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign... po-po musta had a bad day. I've yet to get a ticket, which makes since because i dont get my operators till may 10th, so i just have my permit and i make sure to do everything correctly when my mom is in the car with me ahah. I cannot compete with JB and Zookers track records, although i do have one little mishap that im not all to proud of. Got busted on possesion of marijuana under 20 grams last february. But that was quite awhile ago. Im sure i'll get my fair share of speeding tickets and what not in the near future, ahah.

I have 26 traffic tickets in the state of texas, alone. 3 in New Mex and 3 in Oklahoma. I've been driving (legally) for almost 5 years. The lake I fish is 5 counties away and one day I got tickets in three, LOLOL. One for speeding in one county, tailgating in another, and one for no trailer lights/speeding coming back that night. That was a great day, I caught alot of fish. Needless to say my insurance is outrageous. I've been pulled over in Post, Tx 6 times by the same cop... hes a bastard! He's given me 3 tickets alone - but Post only has like 7 cops staffed. I could teach the defensive driving course at this point. I have a standing apointment every Nov. LOL. No felonies as of yet, though. However, I'm sure my time will come.
