Title: Just wanted to mention this year I received...
Post by: Car Zeus on December 13, 2005, 05:31:25 PM
only 1 speeding ticket in GA while driving my BMW 745LI. (83 in a 55 zone)


Best year on record considering my "California" driving habits. (man I need to move back)


Just need to break in my new Scion TC though.

How do you like the TC?  Manual?

The Scion TC is my daily driver. I sold my other cars.


Keep in mind I'm getting married and downsizing.


My Scion is auto BTW.

Just one ticket this year?  Dude, you're slacking off.  :lol:

[This coming from a guy who doesn't have a ticket for the past 4 years -- but it's not for lack of trying.... :P ]

I've gotten 9 tickets in 5 years here in GA.

I know, man.  I try, but no matter how much I speed, I can't seem to get a ticket. :P  I don't drive to work, and I only drive 8,000 miles a year, so that helps keep my ticket count down.  If I were driving a lot of miles, I'd be racking the tickets one after another.

Nine tickets in 5 years is pretty impressive.  That sounds like some of my friends in their younger days.

Keep speeding, man.  Don't let a few tickets make you wimp out.  Not that there was ever much danger of that.  :rockon:

Do you think you've slowed down on the tickets because of car you're driving?  What did you drive before when you were getting nailed right and left?  I think the cops go after Bimmers less; I've not gotten a ticket in my Bimmer yet.
