First citation with the celi, share what yours was Options

[almostskater919]

so yesterday i had just finished washing and detailing my car when my friend came over with his Subaru. we both thought it would be a good idea to go out and take some pictures, since our cars looked relatively good .

So we both got into our cars and after a short bit of driving around aimlessly looking for a nice scene to shoot on we came to a stop sign. my buddy made a right onto the street and i followed we continued down the road for about a mile or two when i noticed flashing lights in my rearview . Needless to say i about shat myself all i could here in my head was my mom scolding me for my heavy foot, i thought i was going to have my first speeding ticket. but when the cop came up to my window he told me i rolled through the stop about a mile or two back.

I could not believe it 109.50 is what i have to pay for these stupid pictures now

I can see locking if it's a "look at what I did!" thread, as opposed to the "being stupid cost me this much" thread.

In my case, first and so far only ticket, about a year after I bought my Celica. Doing 120 km/h in a 100 km/h zone, at 3 a.m. The police cruiser was the only other car I saw that night. Guy was nice about it, little lecture then he told me since it was my first ticket he'd knock it down to 110 km/h on paper -- in my province the fines increase for every 20 km/h over the limit, and more than 40 km/h gets an unsafe speed citation as well.

I actually like the idea of graduated fines. The stupider you are, the more you pay. I read a story shortly after that about a woman who managed about $1,500 in tickets in one drive and enough points to lose her licence. Something like 80 km/h over the limit, plus a whole lot of weaving without signalling, etc.
