So you are it yet again, cruising down the highway in your stylish Porsche 911 Turbo, with the sun roof open and the wind blowing through your hair. Its Friday today, and you’re all stoked up as the weekend lies ahead. Everything seems just perfect! But, then it happens. There it is again, that menacing sound struggling to drown out your CD player. Just when you shoot a quick glance at your rearview mirror, that perfectly happy face turns into a tight frown. Sure we all know that mean…oh boy! you are been pulled over. How you wish it was not those annoying red and blue lights again. Perhaps you change lanes and hopes he goes the other away, but as it turns out he’s in fact chasing you.
Ah, those wonderful speeding tickets. Sure, you were going 76 in a 65 lane. Or maybe you were simply trying to keep up with the flow of traffic. Hey, whatever you do, “thank you” is the last word you need to say, after he passes you the ticket. Now who doesn’t hate speeding tickets, that’s for sure everyone does! Personally, no matter who you are or how wealthy you are, no one wants those dreadful speeding tickets. Sure, I remember the first time I received one when I was 19 years old. I was cruising home from college in my neat little Mazda Miata, which was one of those fun cars to drive in. Unfortunately cops are always looking out for sports cars. And apparently the colors red and black seem to get the worst.
Though it may have seemed quite inevitable, I was pulled over and handed the lousy speeding ticket. No matter how much I dreaded and hoped, I still got stuck with it. Now what to do? The next thing I did was talk to my older brother about speeding tickets, and then decided to show up in court and plead it out. My court date arrived and I must admit that I was quite nervous.
Luckily the judge turned out to be rather compassionate. I pleaded with her and she said it will not go against my record. At the end, I had to pay up a ticket fee and court costs, but that was the end of it. Showing up at court was a better choice rather than simply sending in a payment. In any case when it comes to speeding tickets, you clearly and simply don’t want them. This can cause your insurance to shoot up! Now, that’s not good for the old bank account.
How many speeding tickets have you received over the years? I hope there aren’t too many. Despite the consequences, you should try and have your ticket resolved as best you can. Of course if you can avoid it going on your record, you’re doing well. Obviously the best way is to not get speeding tickets by sticking with the posted speed limit. On the other hand if you do receive a ticket and you feel as though it was wrongly issued, I suggest pleading it out. No mater what make the officer prove it was you speeding past his radar gun.

Help answer the question about speeding tickets
Do I need to list my 2 speeding tickets on my online job application?Within the last 3 years, I have received 2 speeding tickets. However, I have done the necessary things to get them erased from my record to keep my auto insurance costs down. Therefore technically, I'm not supposed to have any speeding tickets on my record. Should I just mark "No" for not having any speeding tickets on my record or should I mark "Yes" even though they're supposed to be erased?
I live in Tennessee if you need to know that.

Brah just turn the car off
CAR ON CAR ACTION! only jokin
Didn’t see that coming
angry management fail.
if this happened in singapore, he will lose his license for maybe at least 10years AND jail time and/or fine of up to S$20000 for damage to government property~ and also will include his legal fees and payment for court time~
so roughly will end up with maybe at least +-S$50000~
and this was caught on tape and he still didnt turn his car off~ it will warrent more severe panalties~
Ok Based on limited information we now, we can derive that the driver is up there in age. Aging drivers capabilities’ suffer over time(especially their reaction times). He placed the car in reverse accidentally and accelerated as if he was going to merge with traffic. Listn to the engine revving you can hear the rev limiter kick in….the driver was disoriented by the impact. Total accident.
Speeding tickets are about economics not safety. Your best defense is economic. Never pay on the spot. You should always contest a ticket in court, you will get the chance to plea bargain, for a lesser charge because it is cheaper than a hearing. For those who say speeding tickets are about safety and not about making money, please explain the proliferation of speed cameras and automatic mail in fines smoothing the money flow. Why aren't the police doing something else?
your insurance will go up about $1200 a year
This was on the news and it says that he put the gear in reverse by acciedent and walked away with no charges…
But look at that… It looked like it was on purpose also the man inside the car was 65+ I am 100% sure.
A history of bad driving will disqualify you, but if it is just a couple speeding tickets, you should be fine. They don't expect you to be perfect.
why does everyone care so much? but thanks for the correction.
I wouldn’t know because im from the UK and we don’t use many automatics over here.
I think it was an accident. I mean, you’re always supposed to put your blinker on when pulling out into the road. Except this person tried to pull out REAL fast thats for sure!
This is basicly transformers, but with added fail….
go to the dmv and pay for a copy of your driving record
Begging is not cool. Just be sure to dress in nothing but a thong, genuflect upon entering the courtroom, and always call the magistrate 'Your Majesty'. Good luck!!
AS MUCH AS THEY CAN AND IT GOES GOVERMENT RELQATED THINGS SUPOSIDLEY .IT DOSE NOT GO INTO THE DRIVERS POCKET TO MY KNOWLEDGE, UNLESS THEY ARE AFFILITATIED
DEBBY
Gawd, I hope so, you need to be taken off the road before somebody dies.
Also depends on the state you received the speeding tickets in as every state has different laws.
None, never had a ticket.
