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.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Varying degrees all around but it starts at the top. That is where the buck stops. It has been 8 years of stupid, long before Morgan came back. Or Tillis was hired. Made it to the top of stupid mountain in 2023. Stayed in stupid limbo for a while, now we are prepping to scale the next mountain. In this case, I like those guys’ roster building better than what we have had so I am okay with them as our current pawns in the game of Bryce.

      Don't let me gas him up too much, but I hear this and that...... I seen a wide body man with a quick burst, that's able to shed blocks and if extends his long arms its over. He tore up the OL in the senior, you seen about 10 plays and the dog walking OLman. There's other plays of him doing the same, just have to deal with fetus talking over the plays. Plus there's this-  https://x.com/PFF_College/status/2018385471068332410?lang=en     I hope he's ready, cause Id like to see him starting and doing his thang with dbrown, nic, and Phillips.

      I mean there is relevance to that. But I think much of it has to do with the fact that he is clearly likeable. But does that translate to a coach taking his position to the next level like those that have had staying power for many years like Spoelstra? And not for nothing but does how much someone is liked even matter? Across leagues with the Panthers Ron Rivera and Marty Hurney were universally well liked by players. Dave Canales is very well liked. I say you are what your record says. And the record says you got your ass handed to you by a fellow expansion team in the Magic in a game that was over at halftime and that same team went toe to toe with our nemesis who has been handing us L's for over a year now. And if Bam doesn't get his leg swept by LaMelo do we even get past the Heat? Again. It just all boils down to personal standards. I think newer and younger fans will love this. I just want to actually win a real playoff game fam 🤷‍♂️
