  • I just love getting tickets...

    Just got one on my way home from breakfast. 49 in a 35, it was a biker cop so I didnt see it coming. Oh well I guess... there goes 154 bucks haha.

    This is my 2nd ticket, been pulled over 7 times, usually they just let me go.

    The thing i find funny, is that I get pulled over all the time in my Festiva... yet I've never been pulled over on my street bike and I haul ass on that thing.

    More tickets to come I'm sure...

    88 Festy L (The White Thunder)
    91 L came and gone, owned only 2 days

      1 speeding ticket in 21 yrs. 71 in a 55. Had a wreckless op once but it was because of speeding. The Officer didn't have a gun at the time. In court (mandatory cause of offense) he told the Judge we were going WELL in excess of 90. I was racing a buddy the day of high school graduation back in 92. Had my swapped mustang. That was worth ot though.

        My one and only ticket so far was for doing 69 in a 45mph zone. On top of that it was 1am and I'm not supposed to drive at night... $242 later and it never appeared on my record!

              With a Festy horn I kinda doubt it wast worth it right? That's why I want a semi horn for mine. Never heard of that though. Must have been a menacing type of use on your part?

                The last(hopefully) speeding ticket I got was on I10 in N. Fla. .I was heddin' to Mobile, Trooper clocked me at 98 over 55. Wrote me a ticket for 65 over 55. I was on orders to report to the Navy reserve in Mobile for 2wks training with the Marines. Oh, I was driving my '72 celica, he said he though it was a Supra. Looked at my motor. All I had was Header, & Weber. Fast little car. I miss it.:cheers:

                  I've yet to get a ticket though plenty of pull-overs. The last ocifer didn't think my "HUMDNGER" plate was funny.

                  Best was a 80 in a 55. I admitted it when he asked, and he said, "OK. Be careful."
                  Any difference that makes no difference is no difference.

                            Forty-seven years of driving and not one ticket, and I like driving fast. Just lucky I guess.
