Off to traffic school this fall, I wonder if they have the same ancient movies they had when I was younger...

Well according to others since you were speeding and driving irresponsibly on public roads, you are now classified and can be called out in the open a squid boy rider. According to others that is.

I don't know about your laws up there but if the car is not marked (ex. POLICE) then you can beat a ticket in court because there out there to detour speeders and not to catch them .

also instead of 250 dollars for a atorney and clearing a ticket try 50-100 dollars. Lets just say he a good friend

also just got another ticket in truck and I have a escort passport 8500XT Model Radar Detector -Blue- and this Police bronco was in a lot behind some trees using instant radar on me so when I was in his distance he turned it on and BAM! it was bluring so I slamed on truck brakes to the speed limit and there he was so I watch for him and yep dambit I get it a ticket or a sitation and doing 60 in a 30 lol, it was working day and I could not be late but none on a bike yet but thats cause I don't have one yet.

I'm about to give a newbie a citation for bad grammar and spelling. I swear I'm getting a headache trying to read some posts here.

It's called respect for other members, the odd typo here and there we can live with, constant gibberish we can't.

Slowing down is not a bad idea......it could save you a lot more than a ticket...and perhaps save someone else some woe also.

Did NE get rid of the school? My first ticket came when I was 16 and living in Omaha. Took the school and didn't effect my insurance, granted that was 14 yrs ago.
