70 in a 45

[Streetking322]

Yeah I know I'm dumb as shit right..... I wasnt racing anyone, I wasnt showing off. I was just driving. My car has this short circut problem where my tail light fuse is burned and everytime I replace it it burns right out agian. i need some money to get it fixed and i started my job tuseday. But since that fuse is burnt my taillights dont light up at night unless I hit the brakes and my spedamoter and dash dont light up either. So I couldnt see how fast I was going. So I was going down hill and I knew I was going fast but didnt think I was anywhere near 70. Cop said he got me on his lazer going 70. He gave me my ticket and shit. Everything would be alright execpt I just turned 18 last sat and I was getting my C class tomarro but I got the ticket with my D class. Now I think im ganna get my licence taken away and I'm worried as shit. Cant tell the parents have to do everything behind thier back and I'm really fucking screwed. If anyone has any advice what so ever on how I can make my situation better and not get my licence taken away it would be GREATLY appricated.

ur fucked.

[Nismo]

lol, thats gotta make him feel great

[iloveboost]

A lawyer seems to be your only hope at this point.

Good luck on this one. You'll definitely need it.

[Darling Nikki]

No low??? maybe?? other thank that you need a lawyer bad dude.

[Streetking322]

Cant get a lawyer man have to do this behind my parents back..... otherwise they will take the car away and i wont need a licence....

[twkg]

No low??? maybe?? other thank that you need a lawyer bad dude.

^^^ no low & take some DD classes to show them that ur tryin to learn ur lesson

[Streetking322]

whats no low?

[Bishop]

u dont need a lawyer...i got a 29 over and i didnt loose mine. Just did 24 hours community service and a defensive driving class. you only got a 25 over so you will be fine. what county/city were you in?

[Bishop]

BTW, your car sounds just like mine. Lol

[twkg]

^^^ yeah...community service & dd will help a lot! no low is when you plead no contest. youre not saying youre innocent...n ur not sayin ur guilty either. only if this is your first offense!

[Streetking322]

Kennesaw I would not mind that at all man.......

[twkg]

dont worry...a friend of mine got a 25 over n then two weeks later got a 24 over that they dropped to 19 over n still has his license.

[Streetking322]

I hope so man I honestly feel sick to my stomach dude I cant even fucken sleep... not even to mention if my folks found out....

[twkg]

yeah i know how that feels. i just got a ticket too n my speedometer was flat out dead. its only 20 over n i still told my parents but im not makn it an issue until the court date

[Bishop]

Don't worry. You will be fine. They will just have you do community service and defensive driving...You can always do that stuff before you go to court. I just got a "street racing" ticket a month or so ago.....talk about being screwed...the cop called my parents and threatened to take me to jail and shit...

[Darling Nikki]

also when you plead no low you don't get any points on your license you just pay the fine.

[Streetking322]

yeah i know how that feels. i just got a ticket too n my speedometer was flat out dead. its only 20 over n i still told my parents but im not makn it an issue until the court date

Good luck man.... It really does suck I mean a grown person who pays thier shit it doesnt mean anything to them but for the young one who still stay with thier parents it sux balls.

[Streetking322]

you can do community serivce be4 the court date?

[Streetking322]

also when you plead no low you don't get any points on your license you just pay the fine.

no points??? no way how do you know??? yeah but the judge can still take my licence right????

[RutRoe]

Well two things.

One man up. YOur 18 and should be lucky your folks support you. They're going to find out either way and you'd be an idiot not to tell them.

Two, get a lawyer and hope that you can get the ticket changed to "Faulty Equipment" after all, if your crap wasn't working right, and still isn't, a trip to the dealership for some good documentation and a high bill would help you, plus taking DD would strengthen even more that you did not mean for it to happen.

Either way, you need to be up front, handle your business and try to fix the problem. Lying or deceiving isn't going to help you in the long run.

[twkg]

youre court date is probably a month or so from now. youve got plenty of time. thats what earns you some cool points w/ them. they see youre trying to learn from your mistakes and that its important to you to keep your license. n not only does no low make it so no points go on ur license, but it also doesnt effect your insurance...its a wonderful thing...

[twkg]

Either way, you need to be up front, handle your business and try to fix the problem. Lying or deceiving isn't going to help you in the long run.

^^^thats right. i mean i told my parents and my dad just laughed. just take control n let your parents know that youre going to take care of it. its a sign of maturity learning to handle things and being honest when shit happens

[Bishop]

you can do community serivce be4 the court date?

Hell yeah...i got my court date pushed back till the end of this moth...I have been doing some already...my lawyer wants 60 hours done by then....i dont think thats going to happen

[Bishop]

Tell your parents....you insurance will go up and i bet your parents are paying for it and will wonder why it went up

[Darling Nikki]

I got a ticket not too long but I wasn't going that fast as you...I am pleading no low and NO you don't get any points on your license...you can read about it on the internet...its true.

[Streetking322]

That was kool of ur dad man but my parents arent like that they are strict as hell.... and far as taking to the factory and getting a high bill to prove my shit didnt work that would be kool but one prob I dont have any money and they will rip me off they will charge me well over 500 to fix that shit thats 2 pay checks thats a month of work and i still need to pay the ticket the court date is may 17 i have 6 weeks.

[CSquared]

from what i've read... when youre under 21 you lose your license if youre caught any higher than 25mph over the speed limit.

I got nailed at 22mph over a few months ago so i did a shit load of reading on it.

I wish you luck man...

[Streetking322]

Tell your parents....you insurance will go up and i bet your parents are paying for it and will wonder why it went up

yeah thats one good thing my dad just renewed my insurance yesturday good till april 8th 2006 insurance wont go up untill then..

[Streetking322]

I got a ticket not too long but I wasn't going that fast as you...I am pleading no low and NO you don't get any points on your license...you can read about it on the internet...its true.

yeah but they say a bunch of shit on the net thats not true how do you know it will work i mean come on man going 25 over and all i say is no low and no points or insurance raise sounds way too damn good to be true...

[RutRoe]

Well, since you wont have a license anymore, dont worry about working.. unless your parents are going to drop you off.

And you insurance will sure as hell go up... they lock it for a rate assuming you dont do things like this.

You're screwed, I'm just trying to help you realize that you need to be honest to fix the problem... but if you'd rather wait till later when your parents find out, cause they always do, then do that... but I got a feeling they will be a lot more pissed later, after you LIED... then they would if you were just honest.

Good luck dude, you're gonna need it.

[Darling Nikki]

My ex bf is a cop...my youngest brother is a cop...I am good friends with Fulton county bc of my work. I know this very well.

That may be the "law"....but the prosecuter that i had last time said that she can work with anything 35 and under.

He's not screwed...its only 25 over..I dont know what its like in kennesaw but down here you will be fine.

[Darling Nikki]

[Streetking322]

my court date is May the 9th

please let me know how it goes and if it worked for you how much over were you going?

[T-Mo Goodie]

[rant]ITS NOLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ![/end rant]

Good luck, not to discourage you but I know for a fact that some cities (Union City being one and clayton county being another that I have experienced) your license WILL be taken if you are 21 and under and doing over 20mph and they will NOT allow you to plead nolo. A guy was in court one time, 18yrs old and doing 25 over. He had his lawyer and everything. They still took them. JFYI I was 26yrs (last year) doing 21 over and my ticket was $363 + driving school in Union City and I was 24yrs old in ClayCo 19 over and the ticket was $163!!!!!!!!

I would suggest doing like the others said. Try to do some community service and defensive driving classes BEFORE your court date. And try to plead 'Nolo' also like someone else said earlier, if you are on your parents insurance they will know when the insurance goes up. Might as well tell them now. Good Luck
