In the 2 years that I've been driving, I've been pulled over/stopped for speeding, rolling through a stop, lights out, and numerous sound violations for stereo in church areas and exhaust. I have yet to actually get a ticket from the police for any of it though. My abstract still shows up as clean

only had my lincense for about 5 years now, but i've got one ticket, and it went on my record.

got a speeding ticket, 5 points on my license, mandatory court, and a license suspension...

this was a little more than 3 years ago though.. i have no points now. and haven't been pulled over since.

Holy freakin crap man, I think I counted around 40 in that picture. I have only been ticketed once in 5 years and that was because I rear-ended somebody. That's just plain nuts dude!

Been driving 4 years and have had 3 tickets, One for loud audio and seatbelt at the same time, second was an accident I rearended someone and 3rd i was going up a hill behind a semi and went through a red light becuase the truck is so high and im so low and with the incline of a hill I couldnt see it. No points on my license though.

pulled over 4 times. first 2 were to get my car searched because of previous drug charges. thank god the horn came out in my Grand Prix saved my a$$. Next went in the ditch totalled my f-150 when it was snowing on the way to school. 2 cops passed while i was in the ditch and a 3rd when i was getting towed out this one decided to stop and give me failure to control a vehicle. 4th was about 2 weeks ago in g/f's cavi 50 in a 30 going down a hill this would have doubled to 8 points and i woulda lost my license but i convinced the judge that when going down hill and not hitting the gas the speedo stuck and would not show the correct speed. he bought it and i got a 2 point defective speedometer ticket. haha biotch

The car was completely stripped. No gas tank (alluminium 3.5 fuel cell), no options, no noise dampening, anything. Just one B18 motor, drive lines, seat, and steerin wheel basiclly. I went in to get a I/M and safty done on the car and it failed on HC so I had to goto the city and they thought that it was light so they wieghed it.

Ive had my licence 4 years, and have 4 (one dropped) on my record.

1. Speeding (13 over) - $38.77
2. Tailgating a government vehicle (cop....hey he did it to me?) - $98.00
3. Misuse of Power/Reckless Driving (burnout/cookies) - $41.75
4. Sound Ordinance Voilation (dropped) - $19.00 (pathetic...was it worth teh gas & paper & salary for the ticket i mean seriously)

Each one of them is my fault, my last one was a year and a half ago, and they wernt all done back to back, the first and second one were a year apart, and the third and fourth one were about a year/year and a half ago.

This August there will be nothing on my record, no points nothing. The only thing theyve hastled me about lately is my tint .


I also have my CDL-A w/ all endorcements including Hazmat too so i HAVE to be good or fines double, and it stayes on ALOT longer and insurance goes thru the roof.

what tint do you have thats illegal?

i've been pulled over three times since i got my license two and a half years ago. first time was a few weeks after i got my license, i was pulled over for doing 70 in a 30. the cop told me it was my lucky day (and it was friday the 13th lol) and let me off with a verbal warning. the other two times were for illegal tint and i finally got a ticket for it the second time.

I only have one on my record and that is Careless driving. I got that one when I totaled my old Edge.

I had another one from some cop with a bug up his ***. He wrote me a ticket for having my headlights off at night. My headlights were on, but my tail lights were not. I even showed him that the lights were on. I had blown a fuse and didn't know it. I Know some people so that ticket disappeared.
