When's the last time you got a driving citation?

On my way to work this morning (three minute commute) I was pulled for rolling through a stop sign, in my neighborhood.

 

 

I can't stop thinking about it and it pisses me off more each time I do. With the court cost the fine is $288.

 

 

Make me feel better by sharing your ticketing stories.

The last time I was stopped was about two years ago after taking my son to school... some lady was taking forever to turn left so I went around her on the right on a two lane road.  A deputy was 2 cars back and pulled me... he asked me what the hurry was and I told him there wasn't one, I just got tired of waiting...  he laughed and said don't do it again... and let me go.

 

 

The last time I got a ticket was 1996... I was speeding because I was tired and simply not paying attention... I was probably going about 62 in a 45 and he wrote it for 54 in a 45.

I got a speeding ticket back in March.  It was around 1am on a Wednesday night and I was on my way home from a gig.  This particular road turns into a highway after you cross over some railroad tracks, but before it crosses over it's 35MPH.  Right after you cross the tracks it's 60MPH.  I was going about 50 and almost made it to the tracks before I got pulled over.  Cop was just chilling under the bridge waiting for someone because EVERYONE speeds through that area.  He wanted me to be drunk so bad, gave me a field sobriety even though I was stone cold sober.

Yeah tickets are expensive and I would also have to listen to my wife bitch if I got one.

 

I try to keep it no more than 5 over and have had good success with that... plus I'm white.

 

 

I've had one "dick" cop pull me over... I was about 17 and he was about as asshole as you can get...  I was speeding and deserved the ticket but he was a jerk.

 

Out of the probably dozen times I've been pulled, I've gotten two tickets...

Yeah I've gotten out of at least 5-6 tickets in the past 10 years by sheer luck and kindness out of the officer.

I got an expired tag ticket two years ago. I got the ticket on the 3rd of the month....it had been expired for three days. But I renewed the tag and faxed in a copy if the registration to the da's office and it was dismissed.

Before that I had nothing since my DUI 8 years ago

One time in college I was showing off with a buddy in the car... got a wheel and took off and a cop pulled me... he could have got me for speeding, reckless, and probably several other things but he got a call to a gunshot or something right as he walked up to my window so he told me "if I see you again you're toast" so I gtfo of there.

2007 I think, speeding, went to the DA and got it under 10, and paid the fine. I've been pulled three times for speeding and I've never gotten away with a warning. I must not be doing it right.

      Its completely and utterly bootlicking at this point.  If you cannot acknowledge that using 3 picks on a rb with a torn acl in the 2nd round isnt a bad pick then you simply havent a clue about football.  Sorry man it is what it is.  And its insanely laughable you are trying to strawman this argument using other players.  And what fuging facts are you bringing that is justifing morgan using 3 goddamn picks on him?  I cannot wait to hear that.

      ESPN's Top 10 Impact Rookies(non-1st Round)

      Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.
