: 116 in a 60 costs $411 in Spokane Wa.
tugboatchad 01-30-2010, 01:13 AM Im on the on ramp for 90 east, got a motor head in the car who refused to believe the numbers...... (OH GOODY!) got to where I can enter traffic and proceeded to keep her hammered to 127 when Washingtons finest lights up my escort (wonder if they will reimburse me, hint hint ESCORT!). I crammed the brakes and slapped two gears off of the BEAST and blazed by him at about 70. You shouldve have heard her compression belch going past, I knew I was busted and I knew it would be a ticket for the picture frame! So I pull directly onto the shoulder and had my papers ready when he gets to the window. He says, "you airing her out a little?" To which I said "I dont even have that good of an excuse sir"
him "how fast where you going?"
Me "75!"
Him "You WISH!"
He heads to his car and comes back 3 minutes later and hands me a ticket for 116 in a 60 to which I say "HOLY ****!"
Him "G&D D$MN BOY, YOU BOUT BLEW UP MY RADAR GUN, I KNOW YOU WAS DOING 127-130!, NOW SLOWDOWN FOR CHR&STS SAKES!"
and heads back to his car! 4 minutes tops! My buddy whos early forties says "That ticket just fortifies how BAAAD! this thing is, Id put my built vette against this ('67 big block)"
And that is the beginning of this huge ass grin on my face right now!
A.V.GCSRT8 01-30-2010, 01:22 AM nicely done my friend! Not a bad price for the ticket either we have to pay close to that for 25 over.

Yea,but the fine is only half of it,how many points goes with that..here is would be about 8 just based on a single speeding ticket of that speed.Then they will usually throw reckless driving on top of it!Glad you are not in the slammer though!

All & all not too bad. You're lucky you don't live in Pa. Here that would be twice the price and automatic suspension and driver training.
Rambit 01-30-2010, 07:47 AM I'd be very thankful for that ticket. Where I'm from that's a ticket for up to $10,000 and the good possibility of crushing your car.:eek:

AWDFTW 01-30-2010, 08:39 AM Talk about going thru all your 9 lives all at once. Here in TX, you would have been arrested, car impounded, possibly a suspension of your license unless you lawyered up pretty good.

I was about to say , here in RI anything over 100MPH is straight to Jail and the car gets towed to an impound yard .
AZDEUCE 01-30-2010, 10:46 AM The state police here in OR.and WA.aren't that bad,I passed one doing 20 over and he didn't even bother.... plus Regestration and Insurance is cheap.. It's a great place to live.
dirtrcr 01-30-2010, 12:01 PM I paid $341 for 60 in a 40 in Auburn Ca. Spokane is a sweet place I have friends that live there, great riding I almost never see cops there. And this is yet another reason it is cool!
mrpositraction 01-30-2010, 05:44 PM I spent two days in jail for a ticket similar here. (with my 03 Cobra) The fine/court costs were only $65 though. ;)
Worth it in my opinion to stay in jail, they had better cable than I had at home.
Many keys 01-30-2010, 06:23 PM Guess all we can do these days is let it snort coming off the on ramps a bit, up to the posted speed limit and funs over for that day! Not like old times anymore. :o(
Hooray for the 50's!
Many Keys.
SoonToBeSRT 01-30-2010, 07:25 PM In NJ you'd be incarcerated right now ;) Anything over 100mph = street racing aka 8 points? And I think jail time or something ridiculous. Depends on trooper maybe? Id have a perma-boner though, nice job ;) (no ****)
Crookster777 01-30-2010, 07:49 PM If I were in your shoes, I would be singing Jailhouse Rock right now. lol
KingOfTheRoad09 01-30-2010, 07:55 PM lol at least he was cool about it, 116-60 is 56 and anything over 20 can be considered wreckless.
Jeep Trick 01-30-2010, 08:07 PM Got popped at 100 in a 60, cost 125 no points no ticket :D
Cop was using pace which is crap, he was pretty off on the speed as well ;)

My thoughts exactly.That's all I usually do.Damn.I'm too scared to do anything after a 93 in a 55 ticket a few years back.And yet I see all these guys doing top speed runs on here and I just wonder what it would be like.:(
HoustonHemi 01-30-2010, 11:25 PM The guy I bought my Jeep from also has a Corvette. He told me he got hit one time doing 147 in a 45!!! (In Texas the interstate frontage roads are 45mph).
Handcuffed, taken to jail, 14 months suspended license and 18 months probation!
Talk about scared straight. Be careful out there guys!
BOYCHIKS 01-31-2010, 07:23 AM Dang, crazy!
tugboatchad 02-01-2010, 03:55 AM Great responses guys! I really thought id see more cop cars pull up, ask me to get out, hand me several tickets. Nothing but the speeding. Although I was scared to death when he came back to my car the second time and put his hat on which he hadnt the first time. Thought maybe it was to make a point. My said he thought I was lookin at 7500 in tickets!
moron69_2000 02-01-2010, 07:54 AM I just got one the other day fro 70 in a 60 and its 188 dollars! LOL he asked me if the Wagoneer was mine lol!!!
Jr0llin 02-01-2010, 05:32 PM I just got one the other day fro 70 in a 60 and its 188 dollars! LOL he asked me if the Wagoneer was mine lol!!!
10 over? are you kidding me?
SRT8_Paratrooper 02-01-2010, 05:44 PM 90 in a 65 in VA = reckless driving...showed up to court in my ACU's (army uniform) and the judge throw out my ticket and thanked me for my service...then told me never speed in his county again! lol
calgary.srt8 02-01-2010, 05:45 PM 10 over? are you kidding me?
+1 for me too. I'd fight that one through a traffic ticket service. Now fighting 56 over might be pushing it. However its worth paying to fight any traffic ticket to keep your demerits and insurance premiums down.

Ya is giving a ticket for 10 over even legal :D

By any chance are you a smokin' hot chick with big boobs? How you managed not to go straight to the slammer and your rig impounded is beyond me!

liquiddi 02-01-2010, 08:28 PM that's not bad! I'm paying $175 for my 15 over here in IL. It's not going to stop me from driving her like I stole it though.
dirtrcr 02-02-2010, 08:19 AM I just got one the other day fro 70 in a 60 and its 188 dollars! LOL he asked me if the Wagoneer was mine lol!!!
U should've asked him how he liked being a firefighter job!
tugboatchad 02-03-2010, 02:06 AM 10 mph over? Does the Beast do any less?
