marked as a "street racer" WTF is that about?

ive had 2 speedin tickets. my first was in 99 for doin suppoedly 57 in a 35. i asked the cop to see the radar after the ticket was written and he walked to his car, walked back and said it was already off....i bet that SOB didnt even get me on radar.
second was in march of 03 on interstate 78 that goes from NJ to PA i got my ass handed to me by a statey doin 89 in a 65. i actually think i was doin 92, but in NJ after 90 ya automatically lose ur license. cop nailed me wit laser and i was like ****. well he pulls me over and asks if that thing caught him shoot the radar i said yea it did. and he was really nice about it(very shockin for a statey) then he asked where the fire was....smartass...took my credentials went to his car and wrote the ticket....as soon as i got home i mailed that thing back first thing the next morn for like $3 over the required amount.

so now i have 6 points on my license and the state makes me pay an extra $100 a year surcharge. bastards and all there money makin BS ways

one ticket about 2 years ago. 81 in a 65. Was lost (yes, I admit it) and ended up like 50 miles out of the way because a website gave me bad directions to their own place!! I was rateher upset about being that far out. So I was busted by a statie, since I was under 18, had to goto court...got a $20 fine plus court costs, totalled about $80. Prolly so low because compared to the other people in court that day, I looked like a saint. lol Oh yeah, I asked the statie for dir's. and he gave me bad directions too... grr... but he was fairly nice.

Too many to list, but the best one (AKA Most expensive) was when I had my old Mustang... 120 in a 70.

By state law, that's wreckless driving, but the State Trooper gave me a 90 in a 70... $140.00 ticket!

I've had two tickets the first in 96 and the second in 01. On the first one everyone in the car was laughing. Yes the law states you must stop when someone enters a crosswalk, but there was 4 lanes of traffic and turning lane. The lady was barely off the curb on the other side of the road when I went through 5 lanes over. She had stopped in the lane because someone had called to her and she turned around and went back onto the sidewalk. I told the guy I couldn't have hit her if she ran full speed at me and dove and I turned my wheels right at her. He didn't care....it was a small town and he knew I wouldn't travel 8 hours to fight it. It cost me $125 + $50 for traffic school.

Second ticket was doing 85 in a 65. I actually had hit 105, but it was from an airplane, so the speed was averaged. That one was $107 + $50 for traffic school. Cool thing about CA, is when you take traffic school the ticket dissapears off your record. My record looks perfect
