    Default Looks like I'm not only getting faster at the track...

    Mansfield's finest got me again, this time coming over a hill/bridge where the speed limit drops from 45 to 35 mph. I know this is a known speed trap but I wasn't thinking and I pop'd the hill doing 47, so he wrote me the ticket in my own parking lot. He even tried to provoke me by passing me the citation to sign and jerking it back a couple of times. Then he just looked at me as if to say "just give me a reason to cuff ya". I think he was looking for a confrontation. I just looked at him and said...can I sign it now?

    I can't beleave it, no tickets for 10+ years then two in two months

    Sorry to hear that! I got busted by Grand Prairie PD on 360 a couple weeks ago. Right where the it changed from 60 mph to 55 mph.

    Nice cop though, just wouldn't cut me any slack.

    I know some folks that live out in Mansfield, all of them say the Cops out there are tough.
    I make sure when I go through there to visit them that I am always under the speed limit, and they still tail me sometimes...lol

    I'm sorry to hear about your misfortune. Did you ever have your day in court on the School Zone ticket? Do you plan a day in court for this one too? If so I wish you luck

    My day in court is this thursday for the first ticket. I'm going to wait on those results before deciding what to do on this one.
