Tickets and the Mondeo
Fortunately tickets weren't in the Mondeo...
...Part of the reason I bought the Mondeo... I thought if I drove a four door car and carried passengers more often I'd slow down... seems to have worked and the cruise control is great for dialing up 110 kph on the motorway... Besides I was sick of seeing the Mr Plod's eyes light up every time I drove past... Seems if you have a red car, two doors and a rear wing (nothing too ostentatious just a factory spoiler) and alloys... even if you only have 110hp... and the Briko racing stickers on the back windon were for the ski team not the race team... Besides which I've seen Herman Meier ski faster than I've had speeding tickets... |

I talked my way out of my last one... but it wasn't in my car, and I wasn't speeding. It was a jackass cop in a snobbish community who had his panties in a bunch that I was on a motorcycle riding through at 10:30pm
 He nabbed me on a helmet violation, which I maintain was not applicable... but nonetheless I told him that I'd never been pulled over before and that I felt unsafe the "proper" way and he eventually let me off with only a written warning.

I haven't been pulled over for speeding in almost 8 years....and that time I was caught going 112 in a 55. I was trying to get away from a truck chasing me in my little Escort. The cop was nice and wrote me up for 85 so that it wouldn't go down as a felony. That one cost me $156
The last time I actually got a ticket was nearly 4 years ago...for causing an accident. That cost me $108. Speaking of getting pulled over, I had to pick up my mother from the Nissan dealer today since her car was in for repair. As we were leaving we saw a line of 8 cop cars...the first one in line turned on his lights and pulled over this car...it pulled into a trailer park and all the cops rushed in behind and around him. Then they all jumped out hands on guns, yelling at him to stop and stay still. Musta been a very bad boy  |

Do the people you live with get lots of tickets? That can raise your rates too.
