Busted @ 130
HERE IS THE FULL STORY....So I was driving at 2am with no cars on the road. I seen the long bridge in front of me. I put it into 4th and not opening up all the way. At the end of the bridge I started slowing down and next thing I know the cop is on my bumper with the lights on. Cop says he clocked me at 130 comes back gives me two tickets one for reckless and the other for 100 in a 50.
I go to court with no lawyer and man up. judge asked me where I was goin so fast. Told him I seen the open road so I opened it up a bit and he laughed. Got the reckless dropped and the 100 in a 50 got dropped to a 80 in a 50. Grad total of 4 points and $400. guess I won For those who say don't drive that fast and other the bs dont be hypocritical. I'm sure you didn't buy this kind of car to drive around like a Prius owner. I don't drive like this all time. Last edited by alwayseuro; 12-31-2012 at 05:48 PM.. |

Particularly funny as the OP has a thread where he just got the new toy
What are NJ laws for getting busted at that speed? In Nova Scotia, if you get caught doing more than 50km/h over the posted limit, your car is towed and impounded, a mandatory court appearance with a $2400 fine and an automatic 7 days driver's license suspension.. |

39:4–98 Exceeding maximum speed 1-14 mph over limit 2
Exceeding maximum speed 15-29 mph over limit 4 Exceeding maximum speed 30 mph or more over limit 5 and... A ticket for reckless driving carries 5 points on your license in addition to those given for speeding. A reckless driving charge will often be given in addition to a speeding ticket when a person is driving more than 30 mph higher than the speed limit or over 90 mph. so figure on 10 points... and a K or two in fines... get a lawyer and get it reduced. ppp p.s. can always say you got a phone call where the person said he'd blow up your car if you went under 130 MPH.... ofcourse you stopped... so maybe that doesnt fly ?

I guess depends if you get the wrong judge. Some judges do not tolerate speeding |

To be fair to the OP however, I think we all have pushed our luck at one point or another. Let's just give OP best wishes and wish him luck with the infraction. I'm sure he feels bad enough.

Oh absolutely agreed. Not the wisest move. Good luck to Brother Euro nonetheless. Worst case you and I bust him out of the pen with a Ford F250 bandito style mang!

I got pulled over doing 90mph on rt 80. There was hardly anyone on the road so I wasn't endangering myself or anyone else and the cop understood that. Couple that with the fact that I was honest about my speed and had never been pulled over before and the cop let me go with a careless driving ticket. Only 2pts instead of 5. Most of the time it depends what cop you get but at 130, I dont see anyway to get out of that easy. GL
