How many have you had in your driving career?

I only have one and the fuckers had to cheat and use an airplane to nail me. Stupid ramped up enforcement on holiday weekends.

been pulled over more than 30 times. Each time wasn't for speeding but the majority of the times it was. Not sure how many tickets either, sometimes it's just warnings. The worst i had was for failure to stop and doing 110mph through back roads. - My last 2 tickets were from a camera.

Only pulled over once, for expired plates. I just got back in town from FLorida and they were a few days expired, and I had the new plates/stickers and a screwdriver in my passenger seat. She let me go.

Two. The first was on a four lane road with a 25 mph speed limit. I really didn't know I was speeding. The second I was trying to pass someone to squeeze onto an exit ramp and didn't see the cop.

I have had lots of warnings. The last was for a rolling stop out in the country. I don't think the cop was even close enough to see that I didn't stop, but I don't usually stop at that stop sign if nobody is coming so he must have been.

If I remember correctly I've been pulled over 5 times.

1st time: a few months after getting my license, said he clocked me going 60 in a 45 but gave me a verbal warning. I was only going 50 anyway.

2nd time: pulled over for "swerving and crossing over the yellow line" or some bullshit. The cop saw a car with 5 teenagers in it and was hoping he could bust us for something. Another verbal warning.

3rd time: expired tags. Was on my way to the DMV the day after they expired. I had to stop and get gas on the way. As I was waiting at a light after leaving the gas station a state trooper was behind me. As soon as I pulled on to the main road he flipped on his lights. I told him I was on my way to the DMV, which was about a half mile away. He followed me there to make sure I wasn't lying and that was that. No warning or anything.

4th time: speeding in Virginia. I drove down to visit my girlfriend (now wife) while she was working in some podunk town in VA. We had flooding in Marietta and they cancelled classes for the week so I thought what the hell. No issue the entire trip down but I'm pulled over immediately as I get in to her town. I forget what the speeds were, I think I was going 48 in a 35 but it dropped from 45 to 35 and I didn't see the sign. He gave me a break since I was from Ohio. Verbal warning.

5th time: the time I actually got a ticket. Coming home from my mom's last 4th of July weekend. State troopers standing along 70 pointing at cars as they drive by to pull over. Fucking airplanes.

54 in 35-Speed trap in my town. I could see the 55 sign about 20 yards in front of me and got pulled over.

75 on 75- Let me off with a warning but gave me a seatbelt violation.

50 in a 25-Lived on a long road just on the edge of town that should be a 55. Told him we had just moved, and I was in college, so I wasn't familiar with the area. He said "I don't want to call you a liar, but I don't believe you. But, college is expensive, so warning."

68 in a 55

69 in a 55 Construction Zone-Bogus ticket, it was bumper to bumper traffic. I was the only Non-Michigan plate in the line. Cop lowered it to 64 to make it cheaper but then said "If you try to challenge this ticket at all, I'll raise the speed limit to 70" Not sure if that's legal or not.

80 in a 70-Got a warning(I played stupid)

35 in a 20 School Zone-Fuk'n camera got me.

I'll be 26 in 3 weeks.

When my mom was in college going to BGSU

1. Got a ticket in Ohio on her way to work in Adrian, Michigan.
2. Got a ticket in Michigan on her way to work.
3. Got a ticket in Ohio on her way home from work from the same cop as number 1.

This all happened on the same day.
