getting out of a speeding ticket

Recommended Posts

This is no lie. I got caught doing 73 in a 55 zone...anyways, i was nice to the police blah blah blah. The wife called today to get an extension on the court date. basically, just extra time to pay it. The court told her that my ticket was void due to extreme weather circumstances. IE it was smokey as hell that day.
Thank you very much local police:)

This one should be hard to top...

Got yanked over speeding out in the desert in my Camaro. No denying it, no trying to get out of it, I was caught with my pants down and my hand in the cookie jar.
As the cop approached he asked if I knew why I had been pulled over, to which I lightly responded "Yes sir, I was speeding."

Knowing all to well I was pretty much done for, I decided just to do the polite, light-hearted approach. "Do you know how fast I clocked you a few miles back?" and I gave him the completely true, 100% honest answer of: "No sir, I don not." "Were you not paying attention to your speed?" "Yes sir, I was. The problem lies in that once I pass 115 MPH my speedometer does not work correctly, it bobs back and forth between about 70 and 140 (pegged)."

The cop actually gave a chuckle, and asked for all my info. He took my keys and walked me back to his cruiser to show me his radar gun. 133 MPH in a 65, baby. He told me to return to my car and wait for him.

He ran my records and then came walking up to the car after about 10 minutes. He said that since it was such a serious offense, that my car could actually be towed and my license suspended. Then I got really nervous. But with all the optimism taken out of me, he continued to say:

"It would be such a large investment of time to actually pursue this as an offense.... I suppose if there were any time to do it, this is the safest (7:30 on a sunday morning on my way to the DZ)....you are clearly not intoxicated.... If I ever catch you doing that kind of speed out here again, even 15 over, no mercy."

He tossed the keys in my lap, and told me to have a nice, safe day.

I will reiterate: i was given a verbal warning for 133 in a 65.

You bet your ass it takes a lot of convincing for me to do much more than 70 through there any more... I know he's gonna be there the one time I do, and most likely will.

Luckily for now, the camaro is in the garage... driving a little white Nissan Sentra that I don't think has the capacity to do much speeding.
It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

she has done some acting too, so when she gets pulled over for doing 82 in a 65, she thinks to herself..."what role should i play here...got it...dumb blond" officer walks up and asks here if she was paying attention to her speed..she replies "actually officer, i was looking for an exit for that mall over there" (we have not been to a mall in 3 years) after running her license...he lets her go. :)

No shit, there I was...

Just yesterday, on the way back from Thomaston (Skydive ATL), and I was riding with one of my teammates, while the rest of the gang followed us in the van. We came around a curve in the highway (on our way to the interstate), in a 45 MPH zone. Around the curve and "ZAP" there's the Sheriff. The van was right behind us, and we were doing about 80.

He pulled us immediately, and I just sat there and watched as V**** got his ID cards out etc. The deputy walks up grinning, and says, "Leading the pack huh?"

We don't share any crazy story, just give him the straight and honest line, and he says, "You were going almost 80, get out of here and be safe."

:)

So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

I can top that. :)

I get nabbed going 90-something in a 55 zone in the middle or Rural Wyoming on the way to Salt Lake. I was taking a back-road trucker route that saves about 50 miles or so.

Granted, the Cop wasn't too happy to see some 17 year old punk and his girlfriend doing 90. He chews me out, this that and the other, and tells me he's writing me up on a number of things. Not the nicest guy in the world.

He's walking back to my car with the ticket in hand, and a passing driver nearly clipped him by not changing lanes and he passed out cars on the side of the road. "It's your lucky day, kid" and he crumples up the ticket and goes after the other guy....



And THERE IS a Santa Clause. :)

Ya, well I got a ticket for doing 55 in a 35 when I was actually in a 45>:( It was also entrapment. I took it to court... somehow... I don't have the foggiest idea how, but somehow, I lost that one.[:/]

Damn your an unlucky bastard. Maybe time to hire a driver. I was lucky really, the car we got pulled over was the same cat the wife uses to smash into other drivers..

Thanks for the heartfelt sentiment :D

I used to get quite lucky... got outta a few dui's and got pulled over 8 times before I got a ticket. I liked goin fast, I guess. The dui's would've only been dui's because I was underage and it only takes 1 drink to get a dui if you're underage. The .08 limit doesn't matter if you're under 21. I guess I just used up all my luck... now I drive like an 85 year old grandmother when I'm driving my truck. very rarely do I ever go over 65.:)

Funny how jokes and puns go right over Billy's head and he doesn't even hear the "whoooosh".


:D:D:D



I knew what he was talking about. Would the lady be in the car with the drink in her hand??? No. The pic was dark, but a closer look showed she had some serious cleavage, so I figured THAT was what helped her get out of tickets.

That went over YOUR head. :P
