I'm with the guy that said if you can't keep the truck down, good luck with the 'stang.

When I jumped in a 'stang for the first time, I almost put it into a lamp post turning at an intersection in first gear and got a little western with the throttle........But I turned it into a fishtaily look [:-]

But, I've been driving a stang for a while now......Common sense is half the key.

6 months court supervision, no citations in that period and it doesnt get recorded on your driving record, thats the deal here in chicago
thats a ****ty deal. i got a speeding ticket a while ago and to get it off my record i had to spend 6 hours in traffic school where we didnt really do anything but talk all day. but you can only go to traffic school once every 18 months
U call that ****ty.... I got accused of eluding a cop (felony) and charged for it. I swear i wasnt trying to run, just didnt notice him, 1/2 a mile. he couldnt prove i was speeding or really trying to run so it was dropped to 2 misdemeanors(which they couldnt prove except for one cali stop and they called it reckless driving. SOOO now im stuck w/ a 2 YEAR diversion and have to retake Drivers-ed. i can get driving citations but anything else im screwd. should of seen wut they tried to get me for. *** holes.

you think your insurance is going to be bad i just went to court for my first ticket i was doing 63 in a 30 over double the limit the judge ripped me a new one for that he said that if it wasnt for me having a job going to school and a friend that works in the court i would have lost my lisence so i got lucky as all hell i just have to go to the driving school to get points reduced. my mom still doesnt know i had the ticket.

Legally, if you we're out of his sight when you parked you're car and got out with keys out of the ignition... he can't fine you, all he can do is warn you.

EDIT*- and you're insurance will only rape you if they find out. I've had 4 tickets(3 speeding, 1 squeeling tires) insurance never found out, so mine stays at 80$ a month

What keeps your insurance from finding out? I just got my first ticket last night headin to a party at OU. Crested a hill doin 90ish, cop about half a mile ahead waitin on the side of the road. Slowed waaay down but he still clocked me at 71 he said (with a smile). We both knew I was flying, enough to the point I didnt even bother waiting for the lights. Just pulled over at the first chance and waited for him.
