I had to make a delivery for work today in Zelionople, PA about 45 minutes from our store, so after I made the delivery I decided to check my phone to see where the nearest Target was, since that's where most people have been finding the black mask red logo Cobra Troopers and that's the last thing I need in the 25th line and then I'm done(except for the wave 5 vehicles and the 7 packs). I found the closest Target in Monaca, PA and it was about 12 miles away not horribly out of the way, but just enough, but I decide to go anyway.
I get there and what do you know I found him thank god. Well by the time I got there and looked at the figures and checked out I realize I have taken way too long, so now I'm in a big hurry to get back to work, so I don't lose my job. From where I was at now the quickest route back to where I work is a toll road which annoyed me, so now I'm halfway back and through the first toll going about 80 in a 65 and daydreaming about G.I. Joe and I don't see the state cop in plain sight along the right side of the road pointing his radar gun straight at the truck I hit my brakes and get the truck down to 78, but not good enough, so here he comes with my ticket. I get pulled over and he gives me a ticket for 110.00 dollars, so if I wouldn't have gone hunting for the Cobra Trooper I would be about 112.00 dollars richer since I wouldn't have been on the toll road and I wouldn't have got the ticket, but on the bright side I did get Cobra Trooper with the black mask and red logo 8.00 Cobra Trooper(rounded up with tax) 2.00 toll 110.00 speeding ticket equals 120.00 the most expensive Joe I have bought since August of 07' when I got addicted to this plastic crack we call G.I.

the insurance going up will get you in the long run. Find out if they have an infraction diversion program in your state. where you pay and extra $50 bribe fee and they won't report to insurance and i think you may not get the driving point(s) for it? ALong with it, you have to go ticket free for 6mos. or they get you with some other stupid fee.

BUZZER!!!!!!!!!! Young grasshopper, you have so much to learn! 1.) Buy a freaking radar detector!!!!! I cannot count how many times mine has saved my rear. 2.) Now that you have the ticket, find out when the court date is. 3.) GO to the court 1 week before the trial date, and motion for a continuance. A continuance is granted to people who request it in person at the court house, and as long as you have a legitimate reason to get it, you will probably get it. Tell them that you have to work or something important. Tell them that you want a continuance on the trial, and that you want the court date pushed back. 4.) One week before the continuance trial, go to the court again in person, and request another continuance. Again, remind them that you have to work, and that you want to contest the ticket in court. Keep motioning for continuances until you are destined to arrive in court in August or September 2009. 5.) Once you finally have your court date in in the summer-fall, there is the distinct chance that you can get out of the ticket by doing the following: A.) Tell the DA representative that you want to see the officer in court. If he is not there, and he probably won't be there, tell the judge that you want the ticket thrown out since the officer is not there to testify against you. Remember, it is the duty of the STATE REPRESENTATIVE to provide testimony/evidence that proves you are guilty of committing the speeding "offense." B.) Insist that the officer's police equipment may have been tracking another vehicle instead of yours. For all the officer knows, he was tracking another car since there were other vehicles on the road with you. C.) Insist that the officer's equipment may not have been properly calibrated since he is not there to show his calibration certificate or proof that the equipment is being maintained properly. WHATEVER YOU DO: Don't give the kangaroos your money. I am a huge, huge fan of beating the cash-register system that is today's kangaroo court. Last edited by Bravestarr; 03-25-2009 at 11:32 PM.. |
