Re: How many times have you been pulled over...
 

Way more than I can remember, but it's definitely 15+. If I had to guess, I'd put the number somewhere around 30.

Re: How many times have you been pulled over...
 

How am I the only one with 15+? I must have had at least 10 exhibition of speed warnings and tickets in high school alone. Not to mention speeding, failure to signal, avoiding a traffic control device........Ive gotten tickets in 6 different states, and found out the hard way that not paying a ticket in a state you dont reside in can lead to suspension of you license.

This thread is making me think that a lot of you are really dumb.

How the [censored] do you get pulled over more than 10 times and not realize that behaving as you are currently is a bad idea.

Huh? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] Most of things I do are bad ideas. I also grew up in a relatively small city and was able to talk my way out of a lot tickets. Why stop doing burnouts at stop lights when I only get warnings? Of course this was when I was in HS and thought doing burnouts was cool.

Hi Brom,

US50 is by Lake Tahoe is, at times, a 2-lane mountain road. Occasionally, one direction will get a temporary passing lane. When that lane is about to end, there is a sign that says, "Passing Lane Ends", followed by another sign that says, "Do Not Pass", and an indicator that the passing lane is about to end.

I completed my pass after the dashed line ended and after the sign, but before "running out of road" (meaning at no time did I cross the yellow line into oncoming traffic).

Ironically (maybe this isn't really "ironic", I'm sure the English nits here will correct me if it isn't) the whole incident ended up costing me almost exactly what I won gambling that weekend.

Breaking the law,

1. Doing 78 in a 65 zone. Guy in front of me was driving too slow and I was trying to get around him. It was my first time ever getting pulled over, I was very polite, and it was a week before Christmas. ~$150 ticket.

2. Doing 36 in a 30 zone. This is what I was doing, but not what the cop said I was doing. The cop said I was doing 36 in a SCHOOL ZONE even though he told me to pull over BEFORE I entered the school zone AND there were no flashing lights or anything. Again, I was polite and indicated that even if I were traveling 16mph, it would be impossible to know that school was in session. He didn't care and gave me a $325 ticket anyway.

3. It was 4 AM and my friend and I were on the home after having worked from 8 AM moving the entire business to a new office by ourselves completely for free because my boss is a cheap scumbag son of a... oops sorry went off on a tangent... anyway, I get pulled over for taking a yellow light when my car and the cop car are the only cars for miles (I didn't see him at all). He claims I ran a red light. This time, there was no politeness. I was pissed off and so was my friend. I told the cop he was wrong and my friend was being rude to the cop. I'd even go so far as to say that we were both being dicks. I went home with no ticket that night.

Go figure.
