    Default first speeding ticket

    last night me and buellx1 were tuning my car, adjusting the boost and what not(put a new turbo and some supporting mods on earlier this week), and not paying attention to speed whatsoever i got pulled over it was about 10 at night on some backroads, so there was no way to tell it was a cop(county sheriffs here have dark dark blue cars).

    anyways he said he clocked me at 75 in a 55, gave me a ticket for 69 in a 55. my first time getting pulled over and i got a ticket cop didnt even pity when we told him we were trying to work on my car.

    They might not even report it to the DMV and if that happens, it won't affect your insurance. 14 over is the limit for not getting points. 15-18 over gets you 2 points I do believe. You should be happy that he reduced it for you.

    Speeding:
    15 mph but less than 19 mph - 2 points
    19 mph but less than 24 mph - 3 points
    24 mph but less than 34 mph - 4 points
    34 mph or more - 6 points

    You were also doing 20mph over the limit. For him to give you 14 over was pity. With you being under 18, consider this your lucky day as 4 points is big for you...

    The driver's license of any person under 18 years of age who has accumulated a violation point count of four or more points within any 12 month period.

    Yeah dead on i got screwed with that acculmated thing, but i got it overturned...that was my lucky day, only lost my license for 3 weeks. But dam 17 drving a boosted car...

    Also you should be happy he dropped the speed, my first ticket i gota logn ways back, the cop sat there and chewed me out saying i was pacing another car, and had no problem writing 21 over on my ticket.

    sux, seems like that cop was really nice, like ruiner and qd said
    just pay the fine

    agreed, black on blac is nice, but black interior, black ext, black wheels with chrome or gun metal lip is hotter

    No pity? Are you kidding? He dropped it so that you don't get points on your license. That sounds like A LOT of pity to me. And NO, not everyone gets a warning when they get pulled over the first time, especially when your doing 20 over

    FUCK GRAN TURISMO EAST!! NEVER TAKE YOUR CAR THERE, ESPECIALLY NOT FOR AN ALIGNMENT!! TERRIBLE BUSINESS!!
