$6300 in traffic tickets in the last 3 years......
.......you'd almost think I'd learned my lesson by now.
That $6300 also includes lawyers fees and the ticket fines.....it makes me sad that all that money could have been put to better use

you just don't know when To speed.. I've had one speeding ticket, my 2nd year of driving .. 21 years ago. But if $6300 isn't going to teach you a lesson then probably nothing will.

Hahaha you gotta love how big of a deal small cities make of the dumbest things. I go faster than 152 km/h on a weekly basis. As a matter of fact, on the highway the other day, I had my cruise set at 145 and people were passing me on the highway. Your city's newspaper must be hurting for stories Joe lol

Once you go over a certain speed, the cop cant really charge you with a set fine or points....it just goes directly to court for a Judge to decide.
On the plus side of things....I do think I've learned my lesson
