[hellomynameiscarlos]

[jew_boy]

sometime you can lose your license my friend did

take DD(defensive driving) i took that when i got a ticket and the judge was like ok well i see you took that clas so ill let you off with a $50 fine but that was for speeding like 15 over

[xs042]

did he say he had a video? or any actual evidence?

I dont know about video.. possibly hes was about 8 cars back and i dont think he was there the whole time ... he turned on his lights like 2 minutes after the last pull. ( very short pulls the first one was a 4th gear from 3.5k-6k and the second was 3rd gear. 4k-6.8k ) no speeding idk

well see this will be my second ticket. one for swerving out of the way of a retard slamming on his breaks when seeing a cop, and the cop pulled me over because i have a loud subaru with gold wheels.. that was "25mph" over and i had to take a 12 hour DD that cost me $200, and then a $75 fine on top of that.. i think i got like 4 pts for that. but im 18 now and you can have up to 16 pts every 2 years. he said this ones 6 so i'd have 12 pts total not enough to loose my licence. my friend in the IS300 on the other hand is ****ED!!! he already has a 28 over in a construction zone and hes 17.

[redrumracer]

if what you are saying is true then go to court and ask for proof that yall where racing.

[jew_boy]

i would do what redrum said

[xs042]

if what you are saying is true then go to court and ask for proof that yall where racing.

the thing is i dont know what the cop knows.. he asked me if i knew y he pulled us over.. and i was like "pulling on eacher on the highway?" hes like "UGHhgghg Racing" and the he asked me who won.. i was like uhhh.. hes like " come on who won" and the IS300 guy said "He did" and then the cop started freaking out about how my stock looking 240sx beat a nice as boosted IS300.

UGH THE IS300 OWNER KILLED any chances of you beating this ticket when he made that comment to the cop.

Also you do not have to be speeding in order to get hit with a racing ticket.

Get a lawyer that has pull with the local traffic court judge or prosecutor that will be hearing or trying your case

Yeah I would definately get a lawyer and dispute it. I got a racing ticket 3 years ago which was 100% bs cuz at that time I was driving a 100% bone stock 1999 Toyota Camry and I never broke speed limit nor did anything to make someone believe I was. Never the less I got a racing ticket and that female cop took me to jail(I was 17 wtf a minor), and when my court date came my lawyer got the racing charge dropped...as well as my possession of less than 1oz of marijuana charge dropped!!!!!!

You and your dummy friend could've pleaded the 5th. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law.
But you incriminated yourself so if he wrote the statement down, you are screwed. Congradulations.

[TehHakingS14]

oh **** maine, you should have pleaded the 5th, now the 5-0 is gonna come to your house and impound all of your cars and squirt your cat with pepper spray. they may even make you spend 76.32 hours in jail with bubba. . i heard the integra won tho.........

wow, you're not breaking the speed limit in 3rd hear @ 6800rpms? Thats wiik sos.


As far as the ticket goes, I'd take that shiit to court. He probably wont show, then the ticket will be dropped.

**EDIT: I just read the rest of the thread, and you my friend are fuked. You & your retarded friend admitted guilt to the cop and his word WILL stand in court. Ever heard that oldies song "I faught the law and the law won"? Thats whats gonna happen. I'd still get a lawyer though.

you and your friend = idiots.

don't tell them you were pulling.
don't tell them he "won."

you've both royally screwed yourself over. basically, you both pleaded guilty and confessed right there, and he has THAT on video.

[EM1toEVO]

You should have never admitted to anything. Good luck in court.

[DieselNuts]

[B_Hoov]

4 points pulls it for 6mos, you my friend need to call mr mark hill, by far the best lawyer i have ever delt with! oh, and deny deny deny

[00CelicaGT]

MAN U SHOULD SLAP UR SELF. "pulling on eacher on the highway?" WAT KIND OF SHIIT IS THAT TO TELL A COP, U JUST TOLD THE COP RIGHT THERE THAT YALL WERE RACING. IF I WAS U I WOULD HAVE TOLD THE COP I DIDNT KNOW THE GUY AND I WASNT RACING. U JUST FUCCKED URSELF MY FRIEND. I HOPE U HAVE A GOOD AMOUNT OF MONEY FOR A LAWYER AND FOR THE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS UR ABOUT TO SPEND TO KEEP UR LICENSE. HE PROBABLY SEEN THE COUPLE OF PULLS YALL MADE, THATS PROBABLY WHY THE FIRST WORDS OUT HIS MOUTH WERE ASKING U IF U KNEW WHY HE PULLED THE BOTH OF YALL OVER.

I MUST HONESTLY SAY MY FRIEND U ARE NOT VERY SMART, JUST BY UR COMMENT IN RED.

[xs042]

this is soo rediculous i cant ever get the same answer for more than one person.
i've had 4 people tell me different. y cant the laws be more straight forward ???

[xs042]

soo uhh may i ask.. Why would i lye and say that i didnt "race" if

"HE PROBABLY SEEN THE COUPLE OF PULLS YALL MADE, THATS PROBABLY WHY THE FIRST WORDS OUT HIS MOUTH WERE ASKING U IF U KNEW WHY HE PULLED THE BOTH OF YALL OVER."

i dont think he actually "saw it" i think he heard it and saw carbon flying everywhere..
but yeah he said he was going to give us agressive driving tickets aswell.., and those are as bad a DUIs. so i meen i didnt want to be a **** to him and get more tickets than i was already getting ..

[GIXXERDK]

Looks like he milked you out of info.

Man up and pay up. Getting a lawyer would be worth it.



I think the only way to know for sure if he caught you on video is to go to court, but I'm not sure on this one.

[xs042]

Ahhh start attacking me haters.. im at school and i have 5 minutes to rad some more HATE

[xs042]

rad is slang for read ahhaha

[fade2blk500]

automatic licence suspension if your under 21, you might be able to get it dropped down to reckless driving. If your lucky.. that will still however be a licence suspension, but have less points/fine. Good luck, maybe you get a really good lawyer who can do better.

Craig

[C-loS109]

hahah you confessed to the cop. plain and simple. get a lawyer and you might get a less severe consequence but dont expect to get anything dropped after what you and your dumb fukc buddy told the cop.


good luck tho.

[DieselNuts]

LESSON 1: When a cop asks you, "do you know why I pulled you over"? Tell him NO. Whatever reason you say, you admit guilt to, wether its speeding, running a redlight, poundin your pud, whatever, if you admit guilt, you are guilty.

[Motivation]

wow, you're not breaking the speed limit in 3rd hear @ 6800rpms? Thats wiik sos.

Said he wasn't over speed limit in 4th gear at 6k rpm too... That better be a very high speed limit...



Anyways, you might as well give up on trying to get out of it. You are not allowed 16 points every two years. You are under 21, you don't have that priviledge(sp?) yet. I believe it is 6 points under 21 and they pull your license. Not sure exactly though

[Kaiser]

well see this will be my second ticket. one for swerving out of the way of a retard slamming on his breaks when seeing a cop, and the cop pulled me over because i have a loud subaru with gold wheels.. that was "25mph" over and i had to take a 12 hour DD that cost me $200, and then a $75 fine on top of that.. i think i got like 4 pts for that. but im 18 now and you can have up to 16 pts every 2 years. he said this ones 6 so i'd have 12 pts total not enough to loose my licence. my friend in the IS300 on the other hand is ****ED!!! he already has a 28 over in a construction zone and hes 17.

I'll be honest with you: Georgia State Law says that if you pick up 4 points or a reckless driving offense at once, you lose your liscense if you're under 21. Regardless of total number of points. It's an administrative suspension for picking up that big of a ticket, and comes as part of it, rather than a revokation from the DMV for exceeding the points limit.

Feel free to fight the ticket, but if you're driving a Subaru that's "Loud" and has "Gold Wheels" and your friend's in an IS and is 17...I hope the Judge takes both your cars away and gives them to worthy guys who can barely afford to put the gas in their DD's now. :|

Especially doing pulls in Alpharetta on 400.

And yes, I am just bitter and jealous.

[Barefoot]

if your under 21 your license is gone no questions asked. the fine can range depending on a lot of issues the main 1 being how pissed of the judge is that day. i had 1 when i was 20 days from my 21st. the judge took my license for 6 months. i had to pay like $500 in fines take a dui/dd class $75 to get it back then pay the reinstatment fee $1xx.

[osiriskidd]

video, yes. Audio....more than likely not.

Often dash cams are connected to a wireless mic on the officer so there could be audio - but 12 states do not allow audio recording.

GA allows it. depends on if the county had enough money to afford it. courts are officer biased anyways.

I'm not sure I agree with this in most cases. More often than not you aren't going to be able to talk you're way out of a ticket through denial. If you know you were speeding, fess up to it. More people get away with warnings when being straight forward and courteous with the cop than acting totally oblivious. The exception to this is if you honestly don't know what the cop pulled you over for. I wouldn't reccomend guessing

I wasnt aware of that. I went on a ride along with my cousin about a month ago who is a Lawrenceville cop and he was telling me that his dash mounted camera comes on when his lights come on. I thought that was pretty nifty.

well, speeding is a different story. I got out of a speeding ticket just by being cool with the cop and telling him I was running late to a UGA game. You are right about not being able to get out of a ticket using denial, but I would never admit to racing.

[dougatl12]

IF U DON'T GET CLOCKED OR THERE ISN'T ANY VIDEO PROVING ANYTHING U CAN'T GET INTO TROUBLE BUT WHEN U ADMIT IT U SOLD YOURSELF UP THE RIVER

Actually, you don't need to get clocked or get a video. The officer can say you were going "Too fast for Conditions" which he can testify to in court by describing your behavior and the conditions. Doing the speedlimit and making lane changes through traffic might not be strictly illegal, but if the traffic is doing 30 and you're churning through at 65 by hopping lanes every other car, he can easily give you a ticket, even if every single lane change was perfectly safe, had plenty of room, and you used your blinker. Traffic laws are funny things, in that they work on the assumption of guilt rather than the assumption of innocence. The Officer's testimony is proof enough in MANY cases. The appeals courts have repeatedly decided that because there's a limited amount of money (Under $1,000) and no jail time involved in traffic violations, your due process rights are similarly limited. This is also why Death Penalty cases get more than one right to appeal. The severity of the punishment demands the strictness of the scrutiny.

Hi, yeah well today i did a 3rd gear pull with a boosted is300 on GA400 between exit 13 and 12 on my way to lethal injection. a cop "heard" us getting on the highway..??? but yeah he didnt clock us or anything.

well in my unfortunate "racing" ticket my lisence got straight ganked w/o question for six months.. it sucked.

[MSRTom]

and yet people still freakin street race.

Teh DUMB.

[takume]

that's it. your friend admitted it. And I have to agree with everyone else, your license will be gone if you are under 21. And there is a lot of driving class and community driving ahead for you.
