When I was in the Army stationed at Fort Irwin,California. A couple of buddies and I were heading back to post from Las Vegas late one night I was doing like 95 to 100 in a rental car when the CHP stopped me. Well they get out and one of them goes to the ditch with his gun pulled,it was like 3am, and the other one comes to the passenger side. He asked all the usual questions but before he went and ran my drivers liscence he ask me if I knew how fast I was going and I told him around 95. He tells me that I was the first person all month to tell him the truth and to have a nice night

Better yet was the reason we were heading back to post was that I had to talk to a US Marshal the next morning Well when I go to talk to him, he tells me that there was a warrant for me for not showing up for court like 2 times in LA for a ticket I had got there,oops I forgot , He gives me an hour to come up with $800 dallors for a ticket that would of only cost me around $50 if I had made it to court,if I cant pay hes taking me to LA county jail for the weekend.Well I borrow some money from some friends at the barracks and pay him and tell him the story of what had happened the night before and he tells me I was even luckier than what I thought becouse if the CHP had run my drivers liscense they would have taken me straight to jail :wave:

just talked to my dad, he said he's trying to get the ticket erased or reduced but he doesnt know for sure cause the cop was really pissed off at me. my dad wanted to take my car away but i explained to him how important it was to me so my punishment is that im not allowed to drive anywhere but to/from school, work, and the gym until i turn 17(september). as long as i get to have my mustang i dont care, ill follow his rules

I got stopped not too long ago.. Cop said he stopped looking at the radar when I hit 85 in a 45. When he pulled me over started asking me what was under the hood, I just knew I was done for. The the cop starts telling me how he just restored a 66 coupe for his son and how much he loves mustangs. So we talked for a little while, he told me how screwed I would be if he wasn't a mustang fan and he let me go.
Some one was watching after me then!!

family trust
thank God my car is owned by the family trust as my credit sucks!! I only pay $120.00 a month for my '03 cobra vert. I got a ticket only 5 hours after I bought it coming back from Chicago going to Vegas. I had just slowed down from 125 to 92 when the state trooper pulled me over. He looked just like he came off of a poster for the state police. brim hat, dark glasses etc..., anyway as soonas i got back to vegas, i called up a missouri lawyer and paid approx. $500.00 to the state and $300.00 to the lawyer. the ticket was dropped due to FAULTY EQUIPMENT!!!
