i got pulled over the other day doing 65 in a 50. i was sitting on a ramp waiting to get onto the highway and when it was clear i punched it i was doing 65 in second gear and i look over and theres a cop sitting there he motions me to pull over so i did he asked for my lisence. i didnt have it on me, i had just got changed for work and didnt pull it out of my pants on the floor. so insted of getting a $120 ticket and 4 points i got a ticket for failure to provide lisence or what ever it is for $180. i think its a lot better cause my mom would have taken me off her insurance and made me sell the car if i got a speeding ticket. so she still doesnt know i got pulled over

Here where I live, central coast of ca, the sighns say "When Children Present" on the bottom of the sighn in small print. I called the police dept. and asked just what that means? They said that the kids had to be near by for the limit to be in effect. If they can't be seen then it is not a violation.
Check with your local police and see what they say for your area.

You are right, but I was young and stupid. There were no kids present, but tis no excuse and part of why I do not have that car today.......Only 9 years later have I felt responsible enough to start building another......Hehe well maybe not that responsible, but ya won't see me pull one like that again......


ORIGINAL: 01SilverGT

Half of you are lucky you aint in jail for speeding like that in school zones. I always do the speed limit in school zones, theres too much of a risk of a little kid getting hit. I hate when people speed in school zones and theres always cars behind me that are riding my *** because I'm actually doing the speed limit, but I think its just that f*cked up that people wanna speed through school zones, the speed limit is set low for a reason. I know that I speed on main roads and stuff, but not in a school zone when you have little kids walking down the street on their way to school. Speeding is illegal no matter how you look at it, but doing 5 to 10 over in the flow of traffic isnt gonna get you a ticket, but speeding 100 in a 55 will and so is spinning tires out of a parking lot.

There was a Cop here in Oak Ridge that I swear had a hard on for me. Eveytime he saw me would harass me since he did bust me for driving without a license, and i think he hated me. But I saw him at a party in Knoxville, he was doing a lne of cocaine off one of my Ex's friend's T**TS. I walked up to him and asked how he liked th coc. Never bothered me again. He got busted a few years ago for sleeping with minors, they had moved to be a Student resource officer. What a phucking arsehole.
