...speeding tickets come with the envelopes to mail in the fine now?

$64.50 for 48 in a 30. Damn that truck that was tailgating me!

64.50 rates a thread?

Holy crap.

18 over is only $64.50?!?!? I really need to come speed in your neck of the woods. I haven't had a speeding ticket under $150 in a decade.

The last one I got before this was $140. But the nice officer only put me down going 10 over instead of 20. That was also a State Highway patrolman. This one was just Springfield PD.
This is just the first one I got that comes with the envelope. Isn't that just so thoughtful of them? lol

WTF? I got a $100 for driving 30 in a 30 (not a fucking typo). Did you cry when he pulled you over or something?

Nope, I've never been one to do that. It was a helluva lot cheaper than I thought it was gonna be. Another funny thing about it is that the ticket is $40 and the court cost is $24.50.

Do I pay the court cost since I'm not actually appearing in court? First time I'd really thought about it.

Yeah you pay the court costs. Only the fine doubles if you want to ammend it though.

No he flashed him his man boobs.

I got a ticket for 80 in a 65 one time it was $135

**Scorp** · 07-04-2005, 08:07 AM

Friday morning I got a speeding ticket. I was going 73 mph in a 60 mph speed zone. Damn ticket cost me $48.00 and court costs are $60.00. I haven't received a ticket in over 10 yrs.

Did you have one of those metric to English conversion problems like that Mars lander a while back? Those things will kill you.

No shit,I got a 100+ last year for 13 over on the way to the Monday night game vs. the Pats.

The best way to avoid paying out the nose for a speed ticket is very simple.

DON'T SPEED!

Anyone ever notice how some people can almost always get out of a ticket, while you always seem to have to pay?

I'm about half and half right now. I think I've gotten 4 and maybe been let go 3 or 4 times. Wow. I guess I must have a lead foot.
