Police Benevolent Association Card... it helps when you have an uncle that is a sargeant. Although its not a get out of jail free card it helps with little BS violations if you have a clean driving record and know how to present yourself to the police officer that pulls you over.

Copy about a dozen for me when you get it, mmmm k?




I got speeding, 63 on 50 zone, and fail to stop at stop sign with my first S..

With my second S, was an improper passing, and no license plate that I got away with.

Third one, well.., it's only been a week..

Four months ownership and no stops. Last four times I've been stopped was while riding a motorcycle and got warnings for a bit over the limit each time (last couple of years)... Also got a warning for about 5 over the 70 mph limit in west Texas in my VW GTI VR6 last spring.

73 in a 35 It wasn't really as bad as it sounds, the speed limit is rediculously low for the area. It's a 4 lane highway, long, strait, no intersecting roads, about 9:30 at night, no one else on the road. Good song came on the radio, and I got into vtec. Right after dropping from 2nd to 3rd the radar detector went nuts. I slammed the brakes but it was too late he already had me. The cop had his lights and radar off, just sitting in the median waiting for a victim of the rediculously low speed limit. All in all it was some amazingly horrible luck. He started off screaming, and threatening to arrest me. Luckily, I "got off" with a +$300 ticket.

I don't think that one had anything to do with the S though. Anyone in that situation would have gotten a ticket.

Yeah 2 tickets oddly enough both on a civic, in the winter.... 50 in a 25.. then 82 in a 40, which I am still in the process of finishing my supervision for. I was arrested.. 3 mph less and I would only have gotten a fine. I dunno why but I am more carefuly about speed in faster cars

No tickets in the S yet for me but I have plenty of speeding tickets in my previous cars. I actually think I attract less attention now because its a classier looking car (had a Talon before).

had the car almost a year now and I got pulled last week. sitting first in line at a light, top down for the first 70 degree day this year, coming home from work. slow roll out of first to redline and stop at 50-52 MPH. Cop pulled out of gas station, pulled me, and gave me a warning for "improper start." He was nice and I joked with him that an improper start in my car would be to drive it like a camry. Got him to chuckle a bit, and he admitted to me that he thought I was some young kid ripping up his dad's car. He was gonna give me a regular ticket if I was a teen, saw I was 26, let off "easy" I guess.
