concentrate on fighting / getting the ticket dropped rather than re registering your car …

from the time u get a ticket to you going to court takes well over a year … so there isnt any rush.

No… if I go to court, the cop tells me hell bump up the fine to the original “70 km/h over” I was doing apparently, when first of all 120 in a 80 isnt 70, and he will not only be there but also the Chopper who has pics of my car… so I’ll get license suspension, car impoundment or crushed, and $2000 fine… so I’m not even going to bother fighting it… just pay it. Along with the fact I received a $110 fine for not having a signed ownership since it wasn’t under my name.

You can’t change the suspension and motor and call it a kit car / classic.

typical scare tactic by the pigs … they always say that.

if i were you id still fight it. Talk to a lawyer … Paying the fine would be a stupid especially since ur 17 and insurance will rape you

fight it,

also, with insurance quotes, It’s based on where you live, how many high risk drivers are located near you, how high the rate of car jackings is … yada yada.

Basically, I was quote 200/month full coverage (state farm, family has been with them since ever), I live on the outskirts of sauga, close to oakville. I have another friend that lives in central Mississauga, same car, same dealio with his fam. and state farm. The only difference was that he was quoted 430/month.

hope that helps.

btw, they are both 89’ hatches, with no mods.

Where and when did this happen? I call a bluff on there part.

Because they have no way to prove it unless there were lines on the road. They have no radar equipment on board.

hahah i dont know Air2 schedule but Air1 doesnt even fly Sunday night, did you see the chopper?

However, keep in mind that if you do see a rate increase at any time, it may not have anything to do with your accident; insurance rates are adjusted periodically to keep up with the statistics that apply to your situation, including inflation, the number of claims in your neighbourhood, **the accident statistics for people with the same car as you** , and many other factors.

Yea… This is why I pay less insurance for a G35 Coupe than you guys do for S13s. And why I’ll need to sell the G soon as more wankers are buying them. Only 40+ year old women had the car when I bought mine 😃
