Mesquite sucks!

Garland is the only city I'm aware of that has a worse reputation east of I-75.

They have a policy of shoot first, reload gun and shoot first then ask questions.

Where did you get ticketed? I've gotten two tickets in Kansas (yeah for Nationals! ), once on the Kansas Turnpike and once on 75 just outside of Wayside, KS. Both times were for ~20 over, and the fine was less than $200 in both cases.

I looked back in my records - my ticket from '07 Nationals was only $156.00.

Just south of Emporia on the turnpike. It was the only time in my life where the cop just asked for my license (no proof of insurance or anything) then came back and had me sign the ticket. He turned around and left. No 3rd degree about where I was going or if I had anything in the car I shouldn't... it was revenue generation at its finest!

Plano is awesome! I got popped for 7 over (42 in a 35), and no front license and not changing my address on my license = just under $400.

Wow. I got nailed for 85 in a 60 just north or Spring Creek on 75 this spring. He let me go with a warning.

Of course, I had a good story for him. Mom was just released from the hospital after a round of chest pains and wanted the kiddo for a 4 day weekend. The day I was to pick him up I was trying to call her and it would just ring off the hook... after hours of no answers I left and hauled ass towards Paris. He looked me in the eyes and said to slow it down so I could get there in one piece and he let me go.

Mom's phone got blown out in a storm the night before and she didn't know it. Whew. All that panic for nothing.

$300 will almost buy you one of these.

Which is almost 100% useless against the laser gun that got me.

By the time you get a warning from laser, it's already too late.

...and ya'll wonder why you can't get over 30MPG.......

I scored a 21mph over in a construction zone (no cones or equipment on this side of the 8-lane highway) which will cost me $883.

Ouch.

One ticket ever, and I got it thrown out.

Knock on wood.
