Did the cop ever say he had you on the gun? cuz if he said his speedo was @ 75 and you were going faster is BS, you can't ticket on that because it's not calibrated often enough.

yeah don't ever tell a cop how fast you were going until he tells you first. And its safe to go above the speed limit if your only 9 over. A cop well never pull you over if your going 9 miles over the speed limit. when you get a ticket look and you'll know what i mean. Yeah the white strips is how they clock you. They time you from the start of the stripe to the end of it. Thats the only way how the ghetto birds can get you. So as soon as you clear those strips speed on. But look out for the cops though.

here in ga, your have a greater dhance of coming off with a warning if you had no clue how fast you where going or doing anything wrong. its weird.

happend to me a couple times
got pulled over, cop said i was speeding
and i was like... i didnt know
he kinda looked puzzled
i said i drive like this normally
and he left me with a warning. also, dont admit to doing something wrong even though your not. theyll give you a ticket. example, if you say you where speeding in a 25 whgen you where going 25, youll get a ticket.

If you admit to a certain speed limit (anything that you say is admissable) they can get you based on what you said.

I read a really good site once on how to get out of a ticket...maybe its in my favorites.

I should be a cop, I can judge speed like a pro

My VSS speedo cable is broken so I dont know how fast Im going, I get followed constantly, pulled over about 4 times now in 2 months and theyve never once mentioned speed, always no front plate, unlawfully lowerred and one cop even tried to hassle me over my 4point harness and my hood pins

Dunno if you guys have ever tried, but getting up to 80km/h and keeping your exhaust quiet without knowing your actual speed is tough ----, even when my speedo was working I was always up 100+ when I thought I was going 80, and this is n/a, cant imagine what Ill be like when the boost comes

I didn't tell him how fast I was going
but I kindof agreed when he said that I was going 75
I was just happy he didn't see me going 120
he was a real dick too he said "this your house this is alot of realestate for a 25 year old" I said "yeah I actually work for a living"
also at some point a car drove by with one headlight out and I told him he should call ahead and have a road block put up
at whitch point he reminded me he was being generous with the ticket

I have only ever had a ticket for an expired sticker on my plate. Never had any speeding tickets but I have been pulled over three times for it though. Been lucky so far *knock on wood*. Worst one yet was I was doing 176 on the highway was pulled over and he didnt clock me and I knew he hadnt by the way he was talking so I said I was going the speed limit and I got off I was really lucky.
