crazy f*cking week
On top of all the things happend this week, today i got a F*cking ticket for driving 39 at 30 zone.....while everyone else is driving 40-45. I for some reason got pulled over. I think it had to do with being the only sport car at the time. To make matter worse, after getting the ticket i heard a rear noise driving in low speed. I stepped out to look its a f*cking nail in my driver rear tire. Got home pulled the nail and noticed it was a slightly less than 1/2 inch nail but no puncture. I was slightly relieved, should i be worried? will it be a problem with hard driving or high speed?
Also when i pulled the wheel off, i used the factory wrench to put the lugs back as tight as it can be. Will it be ok or i need a torque wrench?
Im still pissed off about the ticket, this is my first ticket ever in almost 6 years of driving. Now i have to buy "pigs" $131 worth of donuts.

Wow that sucks. You gotta be doing something really stupid for me to write a speeding ticket. I will say though that florida statute states any thing 1-6 mph over is a warning only. Fine amounts start at 7 mph over.

I gotta tell you; as a cop myself, I don't know anyone who says, "I'm going to pull that car over because it's a sports car." We couldn't care less. Really. I've heard this before and it's asinine.
About as asinine as writing someone for 9mph over. Hell, most of us where I work don't put people on the curb until 10 over, and most of us wont write you until 15 over.

I usually go 5 over on the interstate, but like getting to speed ASAP, lol.
I will never understand why pickup and SUV drivers think they can go fast, safely. They are some of the fastest and rudest drivers on the road here in Texas.

I was driving like normal, not stepping on it, just cruising at 39mph. I guess i just met an A hole today. Everyone else seem to get away with murder (speeding) but me and i was driving the slowest. This A hole was try to tell me i was going 47 and he was nice enough to write me down for 39. I didnt argue with him but inside i knew he was out to get me and theres nothing i can do at that time since i did technically went over the speed limit.
I called my friend today whos also a police officer that works in my area. I told him about the ticket, just ranting and he told me hell try to see if he could get him to drop it. Hopefully it works out. Almost 6 years of driving and never got a ticket, im trying to keep it this way.

You were speeding, you admit it, now pay the ticket or take defensive driving (if an option). Don't be a brat about it, man up and take responsibility for your actions. It doesn't matter if you were 5 over or 15 over - you were over the posted speed limit.
