Another ticket
 

Not paying attention, doing the Blackberry thing, school zone, fines doubled, damn. Almost 300 bucks, too. That's the second speeding ticket in the Hummer recently and I managed to go like 15 years without any ticket of any kind. So mad at myself.

I'm sure you can get out of it with all of your connections in the crimestopper/neighborhood watch circles.

Doubt it. Got the ticket in Denver.

Adam,
You underestimate yourself. I hear people talking about you all the way over in Golden and Evergreen. You're a legend.

Re: Another ticket
 

Legend or not, tickets tend to come in bunches. Bummer.

Re: Another ticket

Re: Another ticket
 

You might ask when you pay it, some jurisdictions allow you to double the fine and it will stay off your record.
I got a speeding ticket a couple of years back around Christmas for 15 over, forgot to pay it, then got pulled over for speeding again (out in the middle of nowhere) and found out my license was suspended.

That's nothing to mess around with in Missouri, driving with a suspended license = mandatory jail time and you have to either have your vehicle towed or a friend pick it up for you on the spot.

I ended up paying over $1,200.00 for 6 months of basic vehicle insurance, had to hire a lawyer to go to court and paid a hell of a fine to stay out of jail.

Thank God all the meth labs, gang bangers, and thieves had already been rounded up so the police had time to arrest a threat like me.

Lesson learned, next time I won't stop :D

Are you serious? Where? Man, how corrupt is that. :mad:

Re: Another ticket
 

Doesn't going to the ATM for money already waste just piss you off?:jump:


POWN3D!!!!!

Re: Another ticket
 

All I know is that if you try to hard to get out of a ticket.........

Re: Another ticket
 

It's half the points and fifty bucks off if you pay it inside of 20 days.

Re: Another ticket
 

Kansas City, Missouri allows you to double the fine payment for no points on your record. For many years attorneys did the same thing in their deal making, now it's common practice for those not represented.

I wouldn't call it corrupt, convenient is the first word that came to mind....

I hadn't had a ticket in years, then bam in the space of three months I get two. I found out later the suspension from the first ticket had just hit my driving record two days before I was pulled over. F*ck me.:rant:

You need to get a supercharger. At least that way you can outrun the cops.

Re: Another ticket
 

In some venues, if you are not a multiple repeat offender and the violation is not serious, you can ask the prosecutor for a deferred adjudication whereby (1) you agreee to plead guilty and pay more and (2) in return, the state agrees to defer its adjudication of your guilt until a (usually six-month to one-year) period ends. If you get no further tickets during that period, the violation never goes on your record and never goes to your insurance company. If you do get a ticket during the period, you get charged with both. That way you have an extra incentive to drive lawfully: if you get caught, you get two tickets instead of one. Some jurisdictions also reduce the fine/points if you agree to do some driver safety training thingy.

Re: Another ticket
 

Don't get me wrong - I'd take full advantage of a 'no points' offer. It's just disgusting that the government uses the threat of tattling to your insurance agent as a means to procure more revenue.
