I posted this on whoretex…but not many responses…I saw turbovw18 post and he has a link to this website…figured people here would know best considering you have a whole section dedicated to street racing…Well cruising in my car…first time to pittsburgh and all…get off turnpike get onto 376W into pittsburgh I meet up with this GTI MKIV and he looks over at me and we do the 3 honk and go…well what do you know by the time I am at the top of third I see lights…Long story short I got a citation for racing, literally that is what is stated on the ticket… I asked the cop about points but he said that he can’t quote me…My question is will I loose my license automatically or will they just fine me and assess a fine + points???
this is exactly what the cop wrote:
Defendant participated in a race for acceleration on a highway with another motorist starting side by side
Vehicle code: 3367 section B
The actual charge is checked OTHER, Racing on Highways???

i sorry to let you in on this but, if it was a statetrooper your skrew’d
you will probably lose your license. and probably have to appear in front of someone
to discuss your case. you can fight this so you reduce your points
yes always ask for a hearing, throw yourself on the mercy of the court, see if they can reduce it to a 3110, that is a fine with no points, ok, if you have anymore questions just pm me, i’m on my way to the police academy, and i know alot about this stuff.
when my buds got busted… oh 6 years ago or so… they were fined with the other checkbox and illegal highway racing was the charge. these kids went to the magistrate and pleaded their case that they were just stupid and whatnot. it came down to it being their first offense and they were simply fined.
however that was years ago… recently my bud got pulled over by a state boy on the parkway for going 60 in a 35 (workzone) … he also had his daytime running lights on and was fined for ‘no headlights in a work zone’… believe it or not, DRL do not count as headlights :rolleyes: and he took it to court, lost, and now he’s paying almost 200 bucks and lost his license for 15 days.
so i hope for the best… take it to court and plead first time offense…
I got this from shaggy but post it on here www.realpolice.net I would say u will loose your liscense unless the judge feels bad for u or the cop doesnt show to the hearing. Last I heard u can loose them from 30days to 6months. Thats what I was told the last time I got busted but once the cop find out who I was I was left go:D

:nono: ur cop buddy came down & saved u:rolleyes:
i don’t understand the whole lights on in a construction zone. If people can’t see your car without the lights on they have no business being on a job site like that and secondly stay the fuck outta the road of you are doing a jobs like that. But i guess in a state where road work is never ending you have to have BULLSHIT laws like that to pay for it all. FUCK PA.

Originally posted by slowsilverado03 when you go to court tell them to drop it to a 3111a, i messed up when i said 3110
Hmmm… you might want to wait until AFTER he’s out of the academy to take his advice. Wait until they see you read pittspeed.com - they’ll throw you right outta there.

I sent in my not guilty plea and well since technically none of you know anything regarding this I will be kind enough to tell you how this turns out after I get my court date and stuff especially since 90% of you on this board street race…

they were just messing with you… enough of us got pinched in the years to know what CAN happen… but it seems that the same thing can happen with 5 people and they have 5 outcomes. luck of the draw…
