I have gotten three tickets. One was for speeding which I did deserve. The other two were for stupid reasons. One was because of my hids which they were just trying to find a reason to give me a ticket. The other was for my tinted license plate cover.

Hi `Zach, is your insurance super high because of your tickets ? Be careful out there on your highways of life 4-Sure...

I know mine was high after my ticket & when I got my Monte's...

I did trade my Honda for my first Monte Carlo (a 05 Monte LT) with only 11 K miles, but that was back in late 2006.

Then I traded my 05 for a 06....I cried when I had to sell the 06 to pay for college + help my g/f +......

I'll get another one as soon as I stay in one place & have a garage. I don't want another nice ride until I have a auto bedroom with tools to work on it 4-Real...

Good Luck out there on your highways > Driver Defensively 4-Sure

Yeah, I've gotten out from two minor-ish speeding stops, and then I got pulled over by a state trooper and I don't drive fast or aggressive anymore. My luck will run out if I get pulled over again lol.

No it's not the two were just faults with the car so nothing with those and the speeding when I was under 18 and it was reduced a lot too. I haven't been pulled over in a year and a half. Knock on wood.

5 tickets here,when I was 16 I got one for speeding (95mph in a 40mph) but he wrote it up as careless driving so I could keep my license. Second when I was 17 and I had an accident he wrote me careless driving again and sited me for bald tires, last one was for window tint around the same age range. About 3yrs ago I got pulled over for a cali roll but pleaded not guilty and got out of this.

I've gotten pulled over for window tint many times and left off with a warning lol

Now I'm 26 i have a cdl license now also with a clean driving record and decently cheap insurance.

I see myself getting a ticket soon though I've been way to lucky lol

Something like 20-30 tickets, after the 5th or 6th I figured out how to beat the system and get the remaining 20 dismissed.

It's been 5+ years since my last one.

When I was 16 and first got my license...
I accumulated over 47 points... None for wreckless or careless or drag racing.. All 5 and 10 overs... Lost my license for a cpl yrs.

However,
I cant remember the last time I received a ticket...
Gotta be at least 20 or more+ yrs since my last one.

Got 2 this month, one for window tint which is taken care of and another for loud exhaust which i'm still currently dealing with. Neither are points tickets, though i actually got stopped for speeding (80 in a 65, or 85 as the trooper said) but only got the tint ticket instead. Both in the monte ofcourse.
