what is your worst speeding ticket incident...



to start a new thread: whats the worst speeding ticket(s) you ever got?
(i/e how bad did it get in a single run in with the man?)

me, i got 4 tickets for 1 incident. I was doing donuts in a BIG EMPTY
suburban mall parking lot, burning a lot of rubber, and the police roughed
me up a bit, told my friends not to watch, made me pick up the papers he
spilled on his floor driving from the full upper lot to the 100% empty
lower lot, and gave me 4 tickets at once. 

Careless and imprudent, failure to stop for a stop sign, failure to
maintain a single lane, and 45 in a 15 MPH zone. All of this occured on
a completely empty parking lot on private property, though the property
wasnt mine. Total of 16 points, enough to loose my license for 1 year if
convicted.

Being roughed up, having witnesses, and $600+ in lawyer/court fees got me
off with a clean record. And, after all that, I absolutely love
police. really, I do. No, they dont harass me for driving a VW bus at all
either. (but then again, that was one of my tamer feats when I was young,
crazy and immortal, i was just usually luckier in not getting caught. Yes 
i was a hazzard, and no i dont do that kind of thing anymore.)

take care,

Steve
