Parking ticket count? If so then I got ONE.

I usually keep my school parking pass tucked in my visor. I flip it out when I park, hide it when I drive. The one day I forget to put it out and a cop apparently decides to patrol through the parking lot and give me a ticket during 2nd period. Seriously. There must've been at least 10 other cars that never have passes, but I get the only ticket in the lot. 22 bucks I'll never have back.

75 in a 35
84 in a 70 (airplane speed trap)
90+ in a 60 (some bro in an m3 thought he was hot ****... Had to do a pull)
Reckless driving (whippin shitties in a parking lot)

Got pulled the other day for:
Yellow headlights (BS)/no front plate/speeding, didnt have insurance cards either, but the copper let me go... Needless to say i was stoked!

i know that its not easy to do the posted speed limits all the time in these things. i got pulled over once and was doin 5 to 10 mph over the limit...he recited the speed i was going and i immediately asked him when was the last time his radar has seen a service technition, and began to explain that joe schmoe from the police presinct in the next town over helped me calibrate the speedometer in my car, and i think his radar needed to be recalibrated...
he didnt know what to do with himself after i "proved" to him that i actually have brains...he then proceeded to tell me that my mouth will get me in trouble some day and that i was being "stand offish"....i told him he's free to think what he wants but i wasnt arguing, just telling him flat out he was wrong....
to my amazment it worked. he left and tld me to be careful...ha, i dont like those guys' job choice...
so, so far no tix

None in my 7s... idk but lowered and loud is a big attention/trouble getter here but my fb was never looked at twice and the fc was stock when it last drove so nothin even when i was speeding

BUT SOME HOW MY DD NEON GETS ME IN ALL THE TROUBLE!!! its a four door all stock maroon dodge neon... nothing flashy and i still get pulled over whether i do anything wrong or not, never a warning always a ticket. I dont get it... if i drove a damn 4 second funny car as a daily i would get less attention from cops


BTW "rotary everything" thats one way to fight a speeding ticket in court! Ask when the radar/laser/pop was last calibrated. They WILL tell you the date, then you ask if the officer was retrained since the last calibration. The answer will more likely than not be "no". I DO NOT ADVISE that you rely on that to get out of a ticket it CAN backfire. But if you were not speeding and you had nothing else too help your case it could save some money and hassle to bring it up.
