Just when everything is going well...

I was going to work and I was going down a street I always go down. It's a school zone so it's only 25mph. I was doing 40 or so. My radar went off and at the same time I saw the cop. But it was to late. He was coming my way and I was going his. I passed him doing a little under 45 I think, and I saw him turn around and he pulled me over at the next intersection. He was pretty cool. He just said he had to give me a ticket, I was almost going double over... So I got one for 45 in a 25. Not the end of the world, but it happened. Shane

That stinks! At least you weren't pulling boost sideways when he went by. He didn't smile for the picture?

Lately I think you fall into the category of "if it weren't for badluck, you wouldn't have any luck at all".

I know, first the toneau cover, now the ticket... I hope im done with the bad luck for a while... It's been a rough week.
I was really hoping for a warning. I wasn't late or anything, just driving. I guess im lucky this is my first ticket on that street. It's hard to keep it under 25... Thanks, Shane

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you've got one left. Remember, bad things happen in 3s. Hopefully you can buck the trend though. We're rooting for you.

So do you keep a digital camera in your cup holder or something? He didnt think it was odd that you were taking a picture of him? I would think a cop would for sure give you a ticket if he saw you doing that.

I just went to court for that same ticket, mine was 37 in a 15 though.. 380 bux and 3 points... went to court..reduced it to 200 bux but still have the points. Im just going to sign up for community service to pay for it, my girl's mother can sign off on my bs com serv hours since she technically has a ranch.

I knew I was getting a ticket when he did a u turn and pulled me over. Plus he already told me I was getting a ticket when he came to the truck the first time. (for nearly going double over)
So I was sitting there for like 5 minutes and took a quick shot of the situation I got myself in... Thanks, Shane

yeah it was short and simple. the cop was pretty cool, and I got a ticket from him already once b4. (for squealing tires in my truck one day) He's pretty cool. I was going 45 in a 25. I can't argue that. Now I gota pay for it.

I got pulled over last week, i was doing 26 in a 25... not the reason he pulled me over.. he pulled me over for no front plate, and window tint. i laughed at him when he responded with that.
