I passed the cop when he was sitting on the side of the road so i instantally slowed down and pulled over and by the time he cought up i was stoped with all my seatbelt on windows down with my licsens registration and insurance ready. He should have hauled me off to jail, but insted i got nailed with 75 in a 45, no seatbelt, expired tabs and no insurance. He added the others on there just to make me pay more without getting arrested, even though they were false fines. I got all of that reduced to a non moving viloation but i still had to pay close to $500 in fines.

The other day I got clocked 70 in a 45 racing a thunderbird. cop let me off with a warning. Then again 65 in a 45 picking up a friend. When will I learn??
 






Ticketed for Criminal Excessive Speed on a motorcycle.. He clocked me at 69 in a 40 (one of those 40mph road that go nowhere)..

I took the ticket (I got slowed way down before he got the radar gun on me)..

That was my last bad ticket.. (I got lucky, they let me use driving school.. which they weren't supposed to becuase it was a criminal ticket).

Since then, I get pulled over once every few years (last night was for no license plate light & the plate is so banged up from towing that he couldn't read it).

Damn. How did that turn out?
 






I have been pulled over twice so far(I am only 18).

The first incident occured when i had just gotten some new rubber for my ride. So naturally I had to break them in. So after racing with my friend for a few hours across town. We decided to call it a night and go get something to eat. So we turned onto a street and BAM, A road block. Ther were at least 5 cruisers blocking the street. They made us pull over and give them our information, She said i was in bigtrouble, and i was getting written up for Speeding, Wreckless driving, Street racing and evading a police officer. I was worried because i had only had my license for about 2 weeks, so i knew i was gonna lose that. After waiting for what seemed like forever, the lady came up to me and told me to leave. I was not gonna stick around and ask questions, but i think she was intimidated by my car.

Next, was when i was going to pick up my girlfriend, I was going 65 in a 45. Because of the business im in(pools), I knew the cop and his family and the last time i saw him i complimented his truck, so i was on his good side. Or maybe he as well was intimidated by my car.

Since I bought my explorer, i have gone alot faster but have not had any real run ins with the cops. (knock on wood)
 






156 in a 75, in the texas panhandle in a heavily modded infiniti Q45. Cop gave me a warning because he was so impressed with the car.....

Trust me, your car isn't intimidating to any cops.
 






The fastest I got caught for was 78 in a 65. The cop wrote 72 though.

It was ~1am coming home from a girlfriend's house when the speed limit was 65 on the hwy. I got on the freeway looked in my rear view mirror looking for cops. I'm usually really good at recognizing types of cars by the lights and I could have sworn it was a Taurus. I must have been tired, because when I sped up to 80 the 'Taurus' was still there and lit me up. He wrote the ticket for 72 in a 65 because he liked my story when I told him I thought he was a Taurus.
 






that's awesome....
 






never been caught going over 160 yet
 


















for the record- i've definitely been in the passenger seat of an escort gt (a '90 or so)going over 120 on multiple occasions.
 






fastest I've taken my explorer was 145 on I95 thru VA at 3:30am
(had to use the navigation to see what my actual speed was)

Fastest I got caught doing was 120 in a 65 by a state trooper. $375 ticket on a Sunday afternoon. Gave me a ticket instead of taking my license cuz he said he didn't want to wait for the tow truck

lucky me:D
 






I got some many when I was younger 19-20 that the state sent me a letter saying one more point on my license and it was going to be revoked. Half of them were for "in proper starts" (burnouts). I had to worst luck, everytime I would peel out or do a burnout in front of the girls there would be a cop somewhere around.

No offense, but I seriously doubt you were going 145 in your explorer, it should run out of gear well before that.

Where do I start?!?!?!?

Back in the day(when one could speed and had room to) (pre heli's) and traffic school was a weekend pizza extravanganza!

I was crusing Whittier Blvd with a friend. He let me drive:D a 1970 Cuda 426 Hemi built!!! The light turned green, I let out the clutch, full burn cloud bank the cop was waiting at next corner. The cop went back went back and measured the tread marks (Goodyear M50's with race tread) 75 yds both tires! Cop wrote me for speed exhibition 25 in a 35. Yes you read it right! Went to court and lady judge(oh crap!) Threw it out!!!! Can't be speed exhbition she said you weren't even doing the speed limit! The court room went dead silent and then a huge round of cheering went up! Oh yeah at launch the front tire were 12 inches off the ground.

I got more!!!!
