    It's not that hard to take defensive driving...usually they have one at some comedy club, sometimes you even get a meal...takes about 5-6 hours, saves about a 100 bucks, and it keeps it off your driving record. Plus, sometimes you actually do learn stuff.

    Just say you have a run of bad luck...I believe if you get 3 tickets in a year(or maybe it's 5) they will suspend your license. You never know...just about everyone speeds at some point or another, daily.



    Or you can take a class online...that's really easy by the way...they even have the goofy films.

    Oh...Sorry LJ, but you're screwed.

    Maybe he didn't know who you were?

    Did you tell him you were the owner and propriotor of Spurs Talk, the greatest place in the entire WWW?

    Did you try bribing him with free membership?

    Were you in that much of a hurry to get to the S station by your house before the gas prices went up again? Sheesh!

    Just do DD online. Why have your insurance rates go up? Oh, and befriend a cop who can get you out of a ticket!

    Happy Birthday!

    me. I had to take defensive driving for the ticket, which thanks to our lovely Texas lege, I can no longer do, because for some reason they took the defensive driving option away from CDL holders. Even if I get a ticket in my car I can't take defensive driving because I have a CDL. No DD....04% BAC...god I love being a truck driver!!!

    Yeah god bless our government for ing us truck drivers over some more on that lovely little tidbit.

    Yeah those guys are heads.

    I got pulled over on prom night back in 97 doing 47 in a 45 and the cop sees me in the tux, asks me where I'm goin, told him, and joked that I was just a tad late picking my date up. As he takes the ticket off the pad he sneers and says "I guess your gonna be even ing later now face, aren't ya."

    Really fun thing to go through at 16.

    Bummer, buddy. I think God must think he's pretty funny sometimes.

    Happy Birthday anyways!!!!

    As for dealing with the ticket, you have 3 options:

    Pay the ticket - Probably the easiest way to go, but the ticket will go on your record and might raise your insurance rates a little. Since it sounds like you've got a pretty clean record, I don't think it would be too bad.

    Take Defensive Driving - ends up being a little cheaper than paying the ticket, but you have to take the course which ends up effectively being a waste of 6 hours of your life. Just make sure you get everything done on time or you'll end up paying the ticket anyways. I recommend either the online course because you can do it on your own time, or there is a place in SA called That's the Ticket which offers a comedy course which is easy and at least mildly palatable.

    Ask for Deferred Adjudication - Most judges will give you this option as well. Basically, you end up paying the ticket PLUS extra fees, and are put on a probationary period for 6 months. As long as you don't get another moving traffic violation within that 6 months, then the case is dismissed and the ticket doesn't go on your record / affect your insurance. This is the most expensive scenario up front, but keeps your record clean.

    Cops get so annoying, some even do it on purpose just to piss you off if your just over the speeding limit. And people get even more pissed off when they didn't even pass the limit.

    Damn cops.

    Apparently, you didn't have any warrants, so that's a good thing, you didn't get sent to the pokey.

    So have a happy birthday LJ, and enjoy the game tonight!

    I once got stopped doing 107 in a 55 on my way from Victoria to College Station. I was passing people in no pass zones and what not. The cop screamed at me for a good 10 minutes telling me he can take me in for wreckless endangerment but ended up letting me off with a warning because, "I don't want to have to take you in and spend the rest of my ing day doing paperwork because you are a wreckless piece of ."

    He was an old fat Chief of Police of some small ass town. I remember seeing him in commercials. I'm glad he was a lazy piece of .

    A ticket? Thats nothing! I had the worst possible birthday a girl could have this past year. I'll never forget it. I would have preferred a ticket.


    Just get Zstomp to take care of it lol

    Happy Birthday by the way. Hope it ends on a better note!
