Ticket Time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just got another speeding ticket not 30 minutes ago! Lured by a non-existant lingerie show, I took the Vette to a bar 30 miles away, played race car with a Camaro doing 100mph on way home(didn't drink) and just one mile from house, right when I thought, "Why am I wasting time and money on a week-night and better slow down as to not get a ticket" when here come the pretty blue lights. The cop said "83 in a 44". 44? I knew better. DANG IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Been there, done that. Your checkbook will help you sort it out right around insurance renewal time.

Good Luck!

No such thing as a 44mph speed limit. Would you like to clarify?

Play with fire, and you're gonna get burned.

This car will definitely test your self-control though.
Sorry about the ticket though.

If there is something wrong with the ticket IE: 44 mph speed limit. The ticket is usually thrown out. Isn't it. I'd go back and take a picture of the speed limit sign and fight it.

The guy was doing 83.... there is no place in the country where this is legal on a public street whether it was 44 or or 45.. taking a picture will only add to the problem.. the guy was 30 + over the limit.. IE:
"see judge, the sign says 45" So I was doing 83 in a 45 not a 44...
