You're my kind of girl. Drive it like you stole it!

Only problem was, "you let 'em see you do it."

Twice! Got a ticket the first night I did my muffler delete. Cops was half way down and exit ramp and backed up to the interstate to get me...First time I had ever seen a DPS Trooper with a radar gun in his back window. 2nd was by a HPD douchbag for no front tag. NO ticket, just a warning

VenomInside · 10-05-2011, 02:48 PM

I did. No front plate. I ****ing hate that law. Actually, I hate my whole state but what can ya do.

TaylorRyanSS · 10-05-2011, 02:48 PM

Cannot answer the poll, not enough options. I was pulled over at 2 am because there was a hit and run involving an orange Camaro a few streets away. He checked my car for damage then let me go. That is the only time I have been pulled over in my life!

No they know better.

I've been pulled over once before in a previous vehicle, but that ended up being a warning.

In the Camaro I think my exhaust is loud enough to where they could pull me over for it. Tint isn't dark enough though and I don't really speed so I think they've been waiting for bigger fish.

Doesn't mean things won't change, or that one day it'll be my turn to be the biggest fish for the day.

suplex · 10-05-2011, 03:09 PM

I've been very lucky...so far...I really don't drive it recklessly or anything like that, but I don't...like many others in here...use my front license plate (despite living in NJ where it's required) and worse yet...I back into parking spaces so I can put out easier when I leave (I do, however, always leave the front plate in a bag on the dashboard though).

In formerly owned car...my 1994 Camaro ironically...I once forgot (as it confuses me ever since it stopped being every year) to get my car inspected and went in September of the same year I was due in January. How did I remember to go? I bought a new mattress and the guy who delivered it said to me: "What, did your car fail inspection?" I was like: "Inspection? I haven't even gone yet", he then replied (I guess he was looking at my car because he liked it) "You were due in January". All that time...never got pulled over.

Now with my 2011 Camaro, I am due for inspection in 2016...I'll probably NEVER remember that. I'll have to find a way to remind myself.

Funny thing is, for people who like to trade cars in every 2 or 3 years...you'll never have to go to inspection as it's every 5 years now...lol.

Not yet and not trying either!! But the last 4 times being pulled over was all written or verbal warnings!! I am working on getting my insurance down when 2 tickets within a week got attached from 2 years ago!!

Dexcam1 · 10-05-2011, 03:35 PM

Yep, 71 in a 45. Went to court yesterday, spent 4 hours and $285.
Plead "No Lo".

I told the judge while passing a landscape vehicle, he started to come into my lane so I had to gun it to avoid being struck (90% true).

Ticket would have been more than $600 but reduced because of my explination and avoidance of Georgia's new Super Speeder Law.

IamJacksCamaro · 10-05-2011, 04:11 PM

Yes, was doing approx. 71 in a 55 zone.

RoyalKev · 10-05-2011, 04:21 PM

Street racing, officer told me to chill out and gave me a warning while the other car I was racing was getting yelled at really bad lol.

armysig · 10-05-2011, 04:57 PM

Yep 3 times for me. All my fault but they police have been very nice an only given me warnings.

1. Speeding 66 in a 55. I was with the flow of trafic but I guess because I was in the Orange Camaro I was the easies to target.
2. Exhibition of speed, I was doing a burn out in front of my property, I guess that's a no no too...thank goodness the female cop liked my car.
3. I thought I had enough time to get through a yellow light, but just as I went through it turned red. So my fault on timing.

Silverlsinva · 10-05-2011, 05:19 PM

Ive never been pulled over in my camaro but i consider myself lucky though cause i know i have sped past cops while speeding and they didnt pull out.

Can't_C_Me · 10-05-2011, 05:32 PM
