    Well i got a ticket...

    Well it all started on the way home. I was on a slight down hill so i popped my car in neutral and was gliding down the hill while just having a good time with my freinds. Before i knew it i got pulled over...

    I got my first ticket for doing 46 in a 25. This is also the first time i have ever been pulled over.

    And normally i side with the cop when someone says " cops are dicks " but this cop just really was.

    For starters in maryland they have a law, you need to hold your lisence for 5 months before you can transport passengers. The officer asks me how many months i must hold my lisence before i can transport passengers. I tell him 5 months, he goes " no the new law is 9 months so you need to read up on your laws " in an asshole tone. Well i did go " read up on my laws " and i was fucking right, it is 5 months.

    It was also late at night ( 11:45 ) and i was driving my freinds back home. He tells me its too late for me to be driving because my curfew is 12:00. I go " well my freind in the back is 21 and hes held his lisence since 18 so i can legally drive at night according to maryland law " he goes

    " no you cannot drive at night "

    I asked him if i could with my parent in the car. he tells me im still not allowed to drive at night. He was fucking wrong again and i was dead on right

    He also waited from exactly 11:47 to 12:00 on the dot to re deliver my ticket. Knowing i have a curfew.

    Not only that but he wrote me an inspection ticket for my exhaust leak which pissed me off ( lucky for me i was driving with brights on so he didnt see my headlight out. )

    And its not like i was being a dick about it either. I was very cooperative and casual about it because i didnt want a ticket. But for some reason this guy was aiking to tell me i was wrong even when in a few cases i wasent.

    And PS: The ticket is $290. WHAT THE FUCK? That is just bullshit. $290 for what? Moving my vehice faster then they told me to? Thats fucking stupid shit.

    Only lesson learned: Dont drive with my freinds at night EVER again.

    And pps: Dont take this as im saying i shouldnt get a ticket. I just think that fine is way too big.

    20mph over the posted limit here is reckless driving.
    Reckless driving = suspended license + hefty fines.

    Pay the $290 and be glad you're still legally able to drive.

        In maryland doubling the speed limit is reckless driving i think. Regardless reckless driving is listed on the ticket but that isnt what i got a ticket for.

        And thats the thing... I dont have $290. I dont have a job...

          You're bitching? lol. I paid Maryland $290 cause a state trooper caught me doing 86 in a 50 when I was not even five minutes from Delaware. The dumbass even put my car down as a gold Civic.

          Just pay the fine. But remember this next time, you have the right to remain silent.

            You might be able to get a pjc or what ever it is. I got my first ticket literall a week after I got my full provisional which was good, save my ass from having to wait another 6 months. Usually if your under 18 or even under 25 the cop will treat you poorly. I was, it sucked but I did do it right. When I mess up it's bad, I got a careless and wreckless due to a bs law NC has. If somebody sees you do something unlawful(carelss/wreckless) while driving they can report it have you pulled over and get you a ticket as long as they are willing to testify in court. So in others words don't so stupid shit in front of other people in NC, never know if they want to be the goo citizen that day. I would just find a good attorney and try to get it lowered to a 5 over, my buddy got his 83 (really was 85) in a 65 dropped. Good luck with it. I really think as long as you were not putting anybody life in danger than no ticket should be givin, that would make driving a lot more fun and actually might help but who knows. Sorry for the ramble just am bored as fack.

              Well I've gotten four tickets in a year and some change. Three of them were 20+ over and two were when I was under 18. I just went to court for those two (cause I was under 18 lol) and paid the fine. The three I got in Delaware (from State Troopers) they were dropped to 5-9 over (lowered fine). The one in Maryland was just flatout 25+ over lol.

              Then again, for some reason, my insurance rate is the same.

                  that sucks man, i got away from potentially 4 tickets. i ran through a road closed sign, was apparently speeding, my tints were "illegal" and i was talking on the cell phone. the cop wasnt a dick and saw i had all my papers and let me off the hook. i was shitting bricks afterwards lol.

                    The last time I got a speeding ticket, it was 40 in a 25. Cost me $500 and 2 points on my license.



                    I say take it to court. He's right to give you tickets for the exhaust and speeding... you WERE in violation. However, the other things make me wonder. He's feeding you false laws, taking 13 minutes to write a ticket, etc... that's bullying. You might not win, but hell... I'd go to court just so I could talk about those things to someone that might care!

                      Agreed.

                      Last time I got a ticket I got arrested, for "Street Racing". Catch is, he pulled me over 3 days later. Did I fight the ticket? Hell yeah...There was no way he could prove I was the driver the night it happened. After a lawyer, and 2k, I got off with a speeding ticket, no points, and no misdeamor. It was a PITA, but worth it.

                      Advise: Get a job, and stay on top of those laws. And friends, they can walk.

                        Yeah, street racing isn't a charge you want to take lightly!

                          Man this happened to me when I was 18.. I got pulled over in another town after I left a movie theather.

                          It was like 5 police cars at once. It was about 11pm. Copped profiled me (exhaust) and asked where I was going. Going home obviously..

                          So he's like oh I pulled you over because you have a provisional license. I said no I've had my license for 15 months its only provisional for the first year.. he's like well you didn't get a new license. I said well I don't need on you can see the date. He gave me the ticket anyways..

                          I went to court brought my drivers license book (2 versions). And showed the prosecutor the books and my license. No where it said I had to renew my DL after a year. The dmv never said that either. So then the prosecutor said sorry it should be in there and they still fined me! No points but still wtf is that. Expensive day then went to dmv to get another license.

                          That's saying if I had my DL from when I was 18 and going to get beer at age 21 they wouldn't take it. Its all in the date wtf!
