Default Is this my lucky day or my unlucky day?

I got pulled over for doing 66 in a 65 zone. That's the unlucky part. The lucky part is that for the first time in 31 years of driving I got a warning instead of a ticket. Good thing since I just did traffic school about 4 months ago.

It's your lucky day if you are a young S2K driver! He was looking for you. The cop tells me, "I see a little yellow sports car that's technically over the limit... I don't know who's driving it. For all I know you're some 20 year old." In other words if I had been 20 I wouldn't have gotten away with just a warning.

66 in a 65 will not get you a ticket. you can fight it and you'll win.

You're right, it is Just the same, though, I wonder if I could get a "Vintage" sticker for my valance plate?

Im 20...

My friend got pulled over the other day going to work. The cop was on a bike and couldnt tell how fast he was going and put "excess of speed" on the ticket. I laughed because that has to be one of the easiest tickets to beat. How do you fill out a speeding ticket without a speed limit or how fast he was traveling lol.
