Today, I was on the way to traffic court for a $340 speeding ticket I'd got. My mother called me and I wasn't paying attention which caused me to speed. Right past a cop. When I told the cop where I was going, he started laughing at me. I now have another $300 ticket. FML

Today, I got fired because I abruptly hung up on my boss while being pulled over for talking in a hands free zone. I also got a $300 fine. FML

Today, I got my paycheck. I was really excited since I've been broke for the last two weeks. On my way home, I got pulled over and got a ticket for expired tags. The $90 for new tags plus $135 for the citation will leave me with enough to buy a burger. FML

Today I was very excited to go to the post office to claim a parcel. I didn't know what it could be, so I assumed it was a gift. It turned out to be a speeding ticket. FML

Today, I called the police regarding people speeding down my street, because I was worried for my young kids. On the way home from my daughter's ballet class, I got pulled over two blocks away from my house and got a $150 speeding ticket. FML

Today, I got called into work and I was really excited to earn some extra money. One block from getting there I get pulled over. Apparently my tags were expired, and there goes half a week's pay. FML

Today, I got a speeding ticket. I wrote a check, and on the way to deposit my fine, I got another one. I put both fines in a box down town, and I turned around to see a cop putting a parking ticket under my wind-shield wiper. FML

Is this normal for a speeding ticket? Seems awfully high to me. Unless you're gonna win the grand prize, take it down a notch Speed Racer.

Ticket Clinic. $69.99. Their lawyers will fight it in court for you and if you have a clean record, no points and no traffic school.(: Slow down...... I speed too. Shhhh.

At least in the state of Virginia you get a set ticket price for speeding in general, then X amount of dollars for every mph you went over. So like $7O for general speeding but say its $2 for every mph over and you were going 1O over then you get to take home a $9O ticket. But I have never got a ticket, so...

You're lucky. VA cops/laws are the worst I've encountered, and I've lived in a lot of states. I hear they just take a kidney when you get pulled over there. =

OP, judging be your user name, you should go to the next charity ball at the police station. You'll attract more potential one night stands then Wilt Chamberlain has in his lifetime :) .

I never get tickets when I get pulled over. They take one look at me, walk away, and I proceed to burn rubber in their face!

It's pretty obvious that you're so hideous that they won't risk talking to you.

CTFD! It's great that you are so excited to see your family, but your exuberance shouldn't make you drag race through a school zone full of retarded kids.
