I thought mine was bad, some car was riding my tail non-stop at whatever speed I was going on the interstate, so I just floored it. Didnt get very far because a cop was hiding below a hill... ticket for 101mph

From now on I travel with radar detector at the bare minimum..

I think my cousins ticket can beat the record..

He was driving back from his girlfriends camp on I-86 in NY state. An unmarked cop pulls him over for doing 95 in a 65. His ticket was about $340. Six months later he gets sent a letter stating he owes them another $300 for an out of state fee (since he is a PA resident). I cant remember exactly what it was for but it definately seemed like they were milking the system... $640 for one ticket.

I would honestly have to guess I've had like 30 tickets. I never really kept track, but I know I used to get one it seemed like every couple of months. In Cook County, IL, the court system is so backed up, that I used to get away with supervision over and over. The law here is that you can have it once every six years I believe, but I'd send the ticket in requesting a court date to plead not guilty, and then plead guilty once I got to court. They wouldn't have my driving record in front of them unless it went to trial, so I'd get away with being on literally three or four supervisions at the same time. I wouldn't have that luck now, however, since I no longer live in Cook County, but it was fun scamming the system, and having no tickets on my record
