    Speeding for 5/10 seconds or 1 second is still speeding....

    GTFO.

    True, it's still speeding, BUT have you ever speed at all?

    I know I am, because usually doing 80 on 400, and 70-75 on other interstates.

    Yes, I have sped before and even caught a few times, but I don't post the shit on IA like a dumbass. I don't try to rationalize my speeding by saying I was only speeding for 0.687945623 seconds.

    That is all.

    I got my first traffic citation two weeks ago.

    California rolled a stop sign...slowed to about 5 mph, and then took off. The cop came out of nowhere.

    The speed limit was 65 I always go about 5/10 mph over the speed limit I think its rare that people actually go exactly the speed limit on the highway but its hard not to speed when passing somebody especially in a evo.

    Yes, I have sped before and even caught a few times, but I don't post the shit on IA like a dumbass. I don't try to rationalize my speeding by saying I was only speeding for 0.687945623 seconds.

    What? Your the one whining that its the 2nd ticket that you were only speeding for a second.......

    Did you have a certified and calibrated stopwatch? Did you time exactly how long you were above the speed limit? Did you take into account the accuracy of the car's speedometer, and your reaction time to start and stop the stopwatch? I'm just curious......

    Not to sound like a dick to anyone, but also it only takes a laser like .1 seconds to pick up your speed...

    I just didnt appreciate the Dumbass comment, seeing is how you don't even know me thats kinda hard to assume.

    well when I know that I was going 75mph before I saw the cop and the cop said that I was going 82mph and it doesn't take that long to go from 75-82mph in an evo, and I saw the cop right after I hit the gas pedal.... Id say i was speeding for about.... 1 second (thats technically saying that 75mph isnt speeding already we will just say that 76+ in a 65 is speeding)

    sucks for your ticket man... tip for the future: dont come on ia and tell shit like this. mostly everyone will think you're an asshole because "the cop was doing his job" i try to leave my personal life out of here. lots of nice people but also lots of e-thugs...

    but i feel you. i'd go to court and get it reduced to 14 over so you dont get any points.

    there's no getting out thats for sure, but he can talk to the prosecutor and try to lower it to 14.

    Wow wtf are you tripping about so bad for RichW131...he didn't come on here saying "fuck the motha fuckin police for giving me a speeding ticket...fuck those low life pigs for giving me a ticket for racing this ugly ass civic." He was just explaining his bad luck with going over the speed limit a few time. He asking questions about what he can do and how many points it is...

    Are you honestly going to say that you've NEVER gone over the speed limit once?

    Can you read? I posted up that I do speed. Please read before posting.

    I am just sick of people posting their ticket shit every fuckin' day. Sometimes more than one a day! I know, the cop stopped you and gave you a ticket. Shit happens, move the fuck on.


    Lesson of the week: Go ahead and speed, just don't get caught!

    That's exactly what I said on the first page of this thread.

    And yes I do read, and I read the original post and nowhere in the post did i find him bitching the police and telling them to fuck off for giving him a ticket. He got a ticket, of course he's gonna frustrated. Who likes getting a ticket? He was just explaining his frustration and what happened. No need to bash him...

    Granted I just came into the middle of this, but I did read all the posts, and you, my friend (and I use that term loosely), are being a douche. If you are tired of people posting up that they got a speeding ticket, traffic violation, etc. then don't come into the board and bitch about others bitching that they did get the ticket. That seems logical enough from my standpoint, but from what I have read thus far, logic isn't your strong point.

If you are tired of people posting up that they got a speeding ticket, traffic violation, etc. then don't come into the board and bitch about others bitching that they did get the ticket. That seems logical enough from my standpoint, but from what I have read thus far, logic isn't your strong point.
    WTF do you know noob. You think that you make a few dumbassed posts and then your opinion matters?! The answer is "NO". You don't amount to shit.

    IA is not the DMV of the county courts, so that is why these stupid posts don't belong here. If you get a ticket, call the muthafuckin' number for the county courts, don't bitch on IA.

    So take you retarded ,cross-eyed "logic" and GTFO. You, along with the other bitches belong in the kitchen, making dinner. So, hop to it, bitch.

    The kitchen is that way

    you can never be too fast I just need to realise that there are brakes on my car also. Instead of always trying to get ahead of the pack i just need to chill-ax. Im the clostrophobic type I don't like having cars directly to my left or right of me
