                  I beg to differ. I got pulled over for 45 in a 35 on Main Ave last year in my Mustang with the fuzz buster in the window and the guy gave me a verbal warning.

                    ND tickets DO transfer over to Minnesota. 😞 That fucked me hard with a 80 in a 75 ticket and a "speed: care required." MN actually ended up suspending my license because of them.

                      Also, go to court for the ticket and see if you can bargain it down or something. Its worth a shot...

                        Yes, but they were talking about the points system that ND has, and how points affect us in MN.

                          I dont need any lectures on slowing down, I know I was going too fast......its not like I drive like an idiot everywhere I go. Just happened to be in a hurry, which in turn made the trip longer because of speeding. I want a radar detector because they do work unless you are lasered. The ticket sucks and effects me with insurance, I take full blame and am not making excuses.

                            Yeah, I know. MN counts the number of violations so anything will fuck you hard. 4 violations in a year = suspension

                              So we drive cross country going 85-90 the entire way and do not get a speeding ticket. The next day I am going 83 on I-94 and I get pulled over between I-29 and 45th street. $49 ticket isnt bad though, thank god I was not in Minnesota. I think I need a radar detector....any suggestions?
                              not that it matters to you..... but there is always a state patrol (usualy the charger one) sitting right in that area lately, i always see him sitting there when i go into town to drop my girlfriend off.... so this is just a warning to others......

                                      and or scramblers.... but the ting is that IF you are using an active type scrambler/jammer..... if a cop car is equipped with what is called an anti-scrambler missle.... he can pick up on the car that is sending out the signal....

There is absolutly nothing between 32nd ave and I-94, why is that a 30 mph zone!? Anywho 23 over in a "slow" zone BING 5 points and 150 bucks. Plus the asshole gave me a $60

                                          I would not call a cop a prick for that. It is your problem for not getting new tags on time.
