Maybe once a year, the time comes where I just KNOW that it’s time for me to get a speeding ticket. Why? Because I get away from a couple of them, or sometimes people had JUST been pulled over where I was going way over the speed limit. So, my time is just around the corner. Today, I got f\*cked. Across from my school (Robert Morris University in Moon), there is a Burger King. I get on the main road, and cross Burger King. A hundred feet later, I see two cop cars. Shit. But wait, I didn’t do anything wrong did I? A couple seconds later, one of the cops comes after me and pulls me over. He asks me if I knew why I was being pulled over and I told him honestly, “Truthfully officer, I have no idea.” He said they have a speed trap going on. A cop sits in the Burger King and times people with a “certified” stopwatch, going from one line to another (kind of like VASCAR). They said I was doing 53 in a 40. $131. Man, today was a crappy day yet good. Me and this girl from school (with a Jetta GLI) were messing around on 60. Then on campus she smiled at me 😉 But the ticket really brought me down today…LOL Should I fight this? Maybe I have a chance at getting out of it with no points. I should hope so. license + points = bad ---

yea fight it and just say that you dont want the points. maybe try for a 45 in a 40 theres a statistic out there something like 40% of people that get tickets fight them 90% of the people that fight them get it reduced in some way or form ---

Ahh the Moon Police…yeah they suck hard core…they followed me for a good three miles the other day…even though I was obeying the limits. But Jae, dude weve known that cops sit there on that road all the time, you gotta be careful. Oh yeah, and your talking bout the chica with the Gray GLI with the wing right? Yeah shes hot! 🙂 ---
