    $190 for 5mph over?

    Seriously?

    Heh...50mph in a 25mph here will get you a $200 ticket..

    Man, I got a ticket one time for doing 90 in a 75 in GA on I-20 and that bad boy was $180. Of course, I paid that sucker immediately since the Trooper was being very nice considering me and this other car were just haulin bawls to Atlanta doing about 100-110. LOL

    *shrug*

    I dunno. I think it's a crappy deal when you get a ticket in a situation like Goku, that I could understand completely and side 100% with you on. However, those that pick up tickets because they are speeding down the highway for no other reason than to be speeding or mod their cars in a way that is against the law... shut up and take your medicine.

    I know that every time I've opened my ride up just to feel the speed/power I risk getting a ticket... if I get one, I get one... I know that every time I made a mod to my car that could get me a ticket... one day I might get pulled on it. *shrug* It's the price you pay if you want to play. :)

    It "worked" for me 3 times. And I got the citation dismissed letters to prove it.

    They started to put red light cameras in the Kansas City, Mo side. 150-180 dollars is the fine. I know what is like getting pulled over in Cali but never got a ticket. 1 for not having a front plate and 2 for speeding 36 on a 25 zone.

    I also got pulled over along the I-40 in Arizona back in November 2006 on my way to Santa Ana, Ca. They claimed that I was tailgating when I wasn't and speeding 78 on a 55 MPH zone. I just got a warning since I told the state trooper that i was in a hurry bcuz my family member had a heart attack, politely (lil' lie:rolleyes:). He gave me a warning for that and said to me to be careful and drive safe. I was so damn lucky for that.

    If u know how to talk politely to the officer in a manner he may give u a smaller fine or nothing at all. I used to get pulled over alot because they thought I was younger than 18 and past my curfew, lol.

    I just got a ticket too. :( Now everything I wanted to do is put on hold... I already tried ticket assassin once before, but I wasn't lucky enough to get out of it.

    Like Vortex said, you gotta pay to play. :) I did an oil change and decided to take it on a cruise. I got a little carried away on the open highway and got caught doing 70+ in a 55 zone.
