Got my first ticket today. Tell me about your ticket experiences!

Ticket 1)

Was really excited about a job interview, and drove home a little too fast. 90mph in a 70. Fine + Driver Safety course = no record.

Ticket 2)

City street, doing 55. Missed the speed limit sign when it went from 50 to 40. Unmarked Crown Vic got me. This was in a different city. Fine + Drivers Safety = no record.

Close Call 3)

Going down 60mph highway doing 55. Its like 6:30am and theres a bunch of traffic(weekday morning rush hour). Pass by a Cruiser that was pulled over on the shoulder giving a ticket, and apparently there was an unmarked Cop behind me that pulled me over for not "Switching lanes or slowing down." He gave me a warning though, because none of the million cars in front of me slowed down either.

Ticket 4)

This was just bad luck. Where I live, you go from a highway onto a tollway via a right turn to the access road. The onramp to the tollway is something like 300 feets, and you have to cross two lanes. So I turned into the right lane, sped up to 50(the speed limit) and started crossing over. Highway Patrol got me on the tollway doing 80mph in a 70mph, who apparently followed me onto the tollway and cited me warnings for following too closely and crossing a double white line. Whatever. This was some time after the first two. Fine + Drivers Safety = no record.

Ticket 5) This was when I first got my FR-S. Was racing my friend after work in his 350z. Highway patrol got us doing 95mph in a 70mph. Learned my lesson on speeding after that. I was still technically on deferred disposition for #4, and had to pay something like $60 for a traffic attorney to delay the court date on it until I could get deferred again. Fine + Drivers Safety = No record.

Ticket #6)

Im fighting this one in court atm, so I won't say much. Got pulled over from picking up some drugs for my cat (bad infection). In an active construction zone, in my FR-S, speed limit 35, I got Laser'd at 55. There was no speed limit sign between where I exited the parking lot, and where I got pulled over. Got the dash footage and working on fighting it.
