So Im coming home from baseball practice and Im doing 85 or so in the MR2. Cop pulls me over and first thing he says is "You think this is a fking race track son?" He takes my info and goes back into his car to write the ticket. He tells me to stand at the back of the car with my hands on the car. At this point im like Wtf. So my ebrake is weak on the mr2 and i feel the car start to roll. I didnt know what to do haha. He wouldnt look up and I was afraid if i ran to the car he would think i was running. So im literally holding the mr2 from rolling. He finally steps out and lets me put it in gear and shut the car off. So he says, "I really should take your license." I asked how fast he thinks I was going. He says " I have you on radar doing 112. I literally laughed. I asked him where he was when he radared me. Told me he was coming up the onramp and followed me a mile doing speeds over 100 mph. I was just about to ask to see the gun but he started getting pissed and I wanted to keep my license so I let it go. Later on I let a friend of mines dad look at the ticket and turns out he never had me on radar. Ticket says 100 in a 60. But the radar block is empty. Needless to say im in the process of getting it fixed and if I cant get it fixed im fighting it.

few years back - just left a party at around midnight - going 55 in a 35 - change lane without signaling - saw the lights - pulled over - I wasn't too worried because i was part of the law enforcement explorer program at the time (aka - student cops) - but instead of letting him know that i was part of the program - i just accepted my fate

had my wallet in the trunk in another pair of pants - he allowed me to get it from the trunk - gave him the paper work and told him can you make it quick - i'm gonna piss in my pants --- he said let me pull up your record and if you're clear - than i'll let ya go - less than 5 minutes later he came back - i figured i have to play along and stop at a gas station to pretend to use the restroom - he followed me for about half a block until i turned into the gas station --

boy was i lucky - cause i was still living with my parents at the time - getting a ticket - coming home late at night from a party - they would of killed my a@@

that sucks, hope you get that fixed.

as for the rest of you. you lucky SOB's! i used to speed a lot. first time i got a ticket was for 61 in 45 and was $85. i think i could have fought it and won, but i knew i deserved it. i hate when people try to get out of tickets they KNOW they deserve. you have to accept the consequences. im just happy i learned my lesson when i was only going 16 over, could have been much worse i hardly ever knowingly speed over 5mph anymore. its not worth it.
