t3jem 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2007 Funkysurd, I would be afraid to live where you do. Being able to get away with anything using pocket change. As for garbage, sorry you got a ticket, I usually speed, but I'm always looking for cops around . Don't worry I don't go like 30 over or anything. My advice would try to act very sincere and act as if it will never happen again and as if it was the worst thing you have ever done, a few tears couldn't help either . Well hope you have better luck next. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
garbage 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2007 I thought about dropping a few tears here and there,, but i doubt it would have worked.. but funkysurd, that has got to suck to just get pulled over for eer money.. Thats some corrupt country there.. I mean whats next.. I owe thousands to some guy and they pull you over and demand it from you.. what do you do next.. say no and then take a beating.. or what..

Aww that really sucks ! I don't drive yet personally but I know a couple people who have been pulled over for 'speeding' even though they were going 2-3 miles over the speed limit. I know that in most areas you can speed to up to 5 miles over, but going 74 WHILE going downhill? That is rediculous. But then again, what are you going to do? I'm pretty sure that cops don't exactly have the brightest job just sitting there recording car after car... I hope that somethign like this doesn't happen again! Hopfully the next time a cop pulls you over is for 'beer money' haha. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FLaKes 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2007 140 dollars a speeding ticket? and I thought it was expensive here in mexico. Here a speeding ticket costs like 30 dollars. And if you pay it in the first week you get 50% off and if you wait until another week has passed then its about 75% off. And the third week and up, its full price. You can also getaway with tickets here with any amount from 2 dollars to 10 dollars (depending on the level of corruptivity of the officer). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
