Mod Tickets Instructions on post 1

[harwood39]

I got pulled over for my yellow headlights on the highway by an HP and got a fix it ticket, than when im in town passing many cops, not one pulled me over. But whatever. I have my fair share of tickets: Failure to control vehicle, Ex. Driving, 48 in a 30, Seatbelt(wanted to write me up for wreckless because i didnt slow down through a corner), Running a red

i wish i could remember half the tickets i got, i'm thinking to ask the State DMV for a copy of my driving record.

i poop to much.

mark that down as a ticket

this didn't happen in fargo but i can relate to you guys, my driving record is far from clean, and i'll admit its my own stupidity that made it that way. last summer i was hauling ass up highway 5(the road from bottineau to lake metigoshe) and i stopped by a boat ramp and decided to light em up and see how much smoke i could roll....while the smoke is clearing i see cherries, so i figure the cops gonna write me up for exhibition....but he nails me for exhibition and speeding cause when i pulled up to the boat ramp i was doing 12 over(i'd been sitting there for 10 minutes when i decided to light them up, why didn't he nail me for speeding when he caught me speeding?)

another one, back in april(there was still sand on the roads, my tires had shit for traction), me n a buddy were sitting at town and country shootin the shit for about 15 minutes when a cop(with tourettes haha) pulled behind us and lit us up. he said he saw us take off from a stop light, spin our tires(on sand) and that he was sighting us for exhibition, speeding, and drag racing. long story short we got the drag racing dropped, but the speeding and exhibition cause me to lose my license for 2 weeks in may, then in july i get a letter from the state saying i was losing my license again for a month FOR THE SAME TRAFFIC STOP.

the moral of my story, isn't there some kind of limit on how long a cop has to sight someone for a violation, or can the legally wait 20 minutes before they decide to stop the guy while he's in a parking lot and write him up for something that happened almost half an hour earlier?

Wow, the original poster was trying to make a thread on if people are getting ticket due to the new ordinances in Fargo and such, and instead everyone posts up their life stories on tickets since they started driving.

Well since this thread is off topic anyway, i will add my .02. I have been pulled over twice, both for speeding. Once on 8th in Moorhead doing 40 in a 30 by the Concordia Skybridge, only got a warning. The second one taught me a lesson though...hauling ass down Woodlawn Park Drive in Moorhead at like 10 in the morning and guess who's sitting at the top of the hill? Pulls me over and slaps me a 47 in a 30 ($130). Good thing he didn't get me for the 60 that I was going at one point
I have nothing though on my coworker Eric with a turbo Prelude, he'll probably end up paying for a new twins stadium by himself!

I believe you could have argued in court that he couldnt be 100% sure it was your cars doing that driving and have it thrown out. Im pretty sure the only way that could stand up in court would be if he had your license plates when you commited the crime and then caught you later. Otherwise you most likely would have been able to get those charges dropped too.

I have been driving for about 6 years.My driving record was currently perfect until this year when i installed altezzas which is the only thing that makes my car stand out.

I was first pulled over for failure to use turn signal which is bs i did use it.I was driving from west acres going east to stamart pulled in to stamart and the cop flipped on his lights. The cop asked if i knew why i was pulled over.I told him no. He told me then that i didn't use my blinker to turn south on 34st. I then told him that i didn't and why should i have to since it's a turning lane only.He then told me he was confused and i didn't use my blinker changing lanes into the turning lane.BS

A few days later i was pulled over for not merging for an officer that had someone else pulled over.I had no idea this was a law. So sure i deserved the ticket. Do i think i would have been pulled over if i didn't have the altezzas.No considering about 20 cars did the same thing while i was pulled over for the 5-10 minutes.

I ended up buying another car and have since removed the altezzas and have yet to be pulled over. I even drove my car this last weekend with no exhaust and past cops without getting pulled over but it now looks completly stock. So i think there is profiling of speed racer cars.LOL
