Paulboy,

How many tickets have you gotten?

Tino, I think he was just joking around - I doubt he meant to actually insult you.

Think about it - he said maybe you suck at driving because you haven't gotten a lot of tickets...

Oh, and I always find it funny, I got virtually no tickets and didn't have any accidents when I was 16 and drove like a berserk madman. After my friends complained for long enough about my desire to frighten them, I consciously slowed down and started trying to be careful. Of course, shortly thereafter I started getting speeding tickets (usually for speed trap areas) and I got into my first accident. What sense that makes, I don't know, but I still marvel at it.

It didn't make sense to me either, but maybe he was insinuating that I drove like "grandpa".....

I swear, if it wasn't for the fuzz zapper mounted on my dash...... I would be driving a Toyota Yaris....
Cops are ferocious (especially at the end of the month.....quota thing)... And traps in maryland are well camouflaged...

WOW, i didnt think i would of gotten this much reply in such a short time. Great to see it though.

Well i am actually a really good driver, my problem is i drive to my comfort and well my comfort is over the speed limit. But after so many tickets I got better. I have 8 speeding tickets and 1 bul**** failure to stop ticket. Went to class for most of them! And yes im only 21 in 3 days!!

I am looking it to getting a radar detector again, i had one when i got my license and it just made me feel safe of cops and so i went even faster and yeah it didnt work to well.

I am white so no racial except my last bull**** non stop was from an African American so maybe he didnt like white people. who knows about that.

Do you guys think cops see a torch red car and want to pul it over?

Any stories??

I work for a big metro Ambulance Service now so I get the professional courtesy for being a medic ....very hard for me to get a ticket but not hard to get pulled over when I had the civic I was still in high school.

when i first got my car (may 05) there were NO stangs around here (still only see like 1 a week)
i was driving about 7 over down the highway,not paying attention to who was around me, i heard a siren, i looked in the lane to my left and theres a cop, window down, he lookes at my car and gives me a thumbs up and goes on his way! i was scared to death (16 at time) but it was kinda cool. LOL
