I was driving along not paying much attention to my speed today. I got hit with a laser, as soon as I heard it the breaks went on.

I was doing about 65 in a 55... I couldnt see a cop anywhere....

The sum of a beach was on the other side of the house... SO there is no way he could of actually hit me with it... Must of just detected the signal was close....

lol

I've gotten one speeding ticket before, was doing 50 in a 30. And after that I slowed down. Had to pay twice the written fine so that it can be amended to a non-moving violation.

Just be glad you guys aren't living in Europe:
A director of the Finnish telecommunications giant, Nokia, has received what is believed to be the most expensive speeding ticket ever.

Anssi Vanjoki, 44, has been ordered to pay a fine of 116,000 euros ($103,600) after being caught breaking the speed limit on his Harley Davidson motorbike in the capital, Helsinki, in October last year.

Police say he was driving at 75 km/h (47 mph) in a 50km/h (31 mph) zone.

In Finland, traffic fines are proportionate to the latest available data on an offender's income.

I have gotten 2 tickets (one before the 8500 and lasered on the second) the first was 65 in a 40 and the 2nd was 84 in a 60... not reckless driving... but i think double the speed limit is a felony...

No...i believe reckless driving is going 30+ over the speed limit. 15 over is nothin...u can usually go to court and get it reduced to like 5 over.

Not like i would kno or anything. I swear i havent gone to court 5 times for speeding.

After some thought, I've decided to slow down rather than the more expensive option.
awwww cmon...you know you wanna dress up for court and pay money :excited:

actually yesterday I was driving in this little town outside of where I live, dropping something off for work. I took the back way home, and in this 1mile stretch, the speed limit starts out 25, then goes to 35, then 45 later all within a mile or so.

well right when i saw the speed limit 35 sign I sped up, I always go about 5 over, so I got up to 40 (but I hadnt passed the sign yet) I look to my left and in this little hidden alcove thing there is a cop sitting there, I was going 40 in a 25, I dont know how he didnt get me, maybe he was taking a bite of his donut or something...but wow,was I nervous. I think 40 in a 25 would be considered wreckless driving (?)
