Default Speeding ticket paid off!

Finally got my speeding ticket paid off!! $253.00 was the damage! Meh!!! I'll never do 85 in a 50 mph zone haha.

Had 6 points, the prosecutor brought it down to 4 points, and the other ticket I had for obstruction of view was disregarded. So I didn't wind up paying an extra $80.00 haha.



What's the most points you've ever had?

LOL!!! I never advocate speeding,, even tho I got a ticket while in a Neloc Caravan in Oct. Witnessed by Smitty, Greenvy2K, and KevinGS. Clocked me at 98 in a 55. Dropped it all the way down to a warning and a fine $107.50. Hmmm,, knew that $5500 I paid to get my CDL would eventually pay off.

Lucky me,, 0 points, and thank God, he didnt arrest me on the spot. Trooper was a cool guy, and while I am convinced he didn't totally believe what I told him, he didn't make a big deal about it. He had a really good sense of humoor. It could have been alot worse. He even complimented us on our cars, looked them over, and was surprised that there was even a Lexus club.

I Kno, But Have U Driven Towards Pa On Route 78, Nice Long Stretches, No Cops Coz Theres Parts That Has No Shoulders And The U Can Easily Spot A Cop Car From Like At Least A Mile Away. But Then Once U Slow Down It Feels Weird,lol. I Rather Wait It Out, Just In Case Plus, I Need To Get The Cars Inspected,lol. Too Lazy Coz They Charge So Much For It To Get Done.
