Sadness indeed. Thanks for looking into it!

(Totally missed this thread while I had the opportunity to view what sounds like an awesome vid.)

Apparently, she needs to settle a few terms in the court so the video was taken down until the matters are resolved.

Thanks Rolla

From another earlier video I noticed that she has a rabbit's foot hanging from the rear view mirror so she has nothing to worry about from the police

LOL

p.s. The cop busted her on a deserted and secluded highway with no creature or object in sight. Cops don't have anything better to do than giving tickets so that the general public gets the perception of them hard at work.

Obviously the highway wasn't THAT deserted.

LMAO at an officer on patrol having something better to do than busting someone for speeding @ 114mph. But the cop is the dumb azz....

Yes, sorry about the "private" vid, although I still get it on my feed (perhaps because I am "permitted")? #209's my girl and she loves to run. Just gotta get a court hearing behind me before we post more speed vids...

New member, just saying "hi".

Dumb *** cop didn't know what it was. Gotta give him credit, he seemed nice and was joking wih us. Just hosed me with the full speed on the ticket. Oh well, guess lwyers are good foe something...
