In texas, we don't have point system.
I don't really know reckless speed, but believe it is about 90mph.
Sounds cool?? not really.
it depends on city/county, but most of fine start at $180-190.
and $5~10 per mile you over.
But there are A LOT of lawers who want to take care of your ticket.
Just pay the fine to them, and they will make it dropped.
NO record.
I've done it 3~4 times already and always work.
You don't even have to look the phone book.
2~3 days after your ticket, you will see several of them in your mailbox.
Once, I paid to a lawyer, and he FORGOT to clear my ticket, and I recieved
notice said there were warrant issued against me.
I ran to his office and yelled at him, and next day, it was cleared.

I GUARENTEE it helped. Never underestimate the power those uniforms weild while being worn by a woman, although I'm sure the tears didnt hurt either. For better or worse, my Fire Dept plates on my DD as well as my mustang have never hurt either. I'd bet in the 16 years I've been on the job I've been pulled over at least once every year....and still dont have a ticket to show for any of them though I've never even once asked for any different treatment than anyone else who's ever been pulled over. Heck, my DD didnt have a front plate on it for probably 7-8 years (required in my state) even though the plate holder was there and empty and my mustang hasnt had the front one on it for almost 2 years now.

Also, I have been attempting to look up the citation 3 times a day on the Court's online system where you can pay for a ticket because I want to get the official amount and find out if I can set up a payment plan online. To this date I get the following message when trying to look it up, "Complaint number is not found". What are the chances the officer lost or never submitted my ticket? Any idea how long it should take for it to show up in the system?

Laser guns FTMFL!
My detector is supposed to detect laser, but it NEVER does since it's so pinpointed. The detector never sees it.
When that damn "cop" on a bike w/ his laser gun got me last year I never heard a peep out of my detector. POS got me going down a hill where your speed of course increases quite a bit due to gravity. What I would have done is coasted back down to normal speed like normal, but he just had to ****** be there at the wrong time. He could not have been 30 seconds down the road where I would have coasted back down to the limit already...nooooooo. :/
This thread reminds me how much I hate motorcycle cops and state troopers. Worthless fvcks. As far as I'm concerned they aren't REAL cops anyway. They wouldn't know wtf to do if a REAL criminal was to confront them. All they're good for is pulling people over for stupid **** and seeing how many donuts they can eat before 11am. Yet we have all kinds of bad people doing bad things all the time and these lazy worthless ****s would rather sit behind **** with their laser gun.
This also reminds me I never used my ticket as a target like I had planed.

The only time speeding will gain you any time is when you are on an open hwy without lights or are traveling a great distance.
I think mentally a person feels they are going to gain time because 50 in a 35 is faster, but the stop lights are still going to slow you down. Blow by somebody to beat them to the next light by 30 seconds. Sounds worth the $$ risk and possible injury.
