The worst Speed Tiket you ever got and at what speed ?

I'll start
i got a 300 dollard can Tiket by going at 160 KM/H on a highway of 100 KM/H :shock:

my worst wasn't a ticket ... was the car !

i was going 190 km/h in a 70 km/h speed limit road ....... the road wasn't straight ... too many corners and it was something like 30 degrees angle ... ...2 line street ...
and i was pretty a bigenner ... i had my license before 3 months then ...
anyways i saw a guy infront of me who wanted to race so i kicked full on that street ... got to 190 km/h and i got to the next corner with him ... i was in the inner line and the car understeered .. and i had one line to keep it steady ! but i hit the middle of the street what do you call it !?@ .. anyways my front wheel got over the "x" in the middle about 9 Cm it exploded and i started playing with the steering like crazy ... but with no use there is no front wheel ... i started to lower with gears ... but no use i was gonna hit a bus startion and a big stone wall ... i didnt wanna hit them face to face ... so i braked ... 6 spins and hited everything the wall the side way some signs and the car had 85% damage ....
as for TOTAL LOSS ...

thats the worst that ever happened to me ...!

WOW WHAT CAR WAS THAT :?:

BMW 735i ...
3.5 liter engine with V8 .....

im happy im still alive :)

this was my first "f*ck up" with any car. ... trying stuff but i went over the limit there !

but hay no body was born with good driving skills .... everybody have to try ... and everybody have his "f*uck ups" in the beginning ....

I was with my unt husband in his impreza WRX going to eilat in Israel and he was at 230KMH on a 90 KMH road,what do you say about that.
and its true

i do believe you couse on israels roads my top speed is 240 km/h in the bimmer ...in kveesh hasargel ....at midnight ..
and with a guy the top speed was 260 in an A6 4200 quattro in the road from nazareth to haifa ... through shfa3amer

just to explain some words that might sound rediculas ...
kveesh hasargel = a road name .
shfa3amer , haifa , nazareth = city names ...
eilat which sportmotori is also a city name ....

I've never got a speed ticket. Actually, I've never got any ticket.

Eeeewww, I hate you jimkk29! I kid, hehe. I have gotten two speeding tickest in my 4 year driving career, and it's very strange to compare them. The fisrt was only a few months after i had gotten my liscense and I was doing 78 in a 35 mph zone(I'm working on finding a good conversion table to metric numbers so I can relate better to everyone elses posts). That ticket cost a mere 100 dollars. Then, just recently this Febuary, I got a 105 dollar speeding ticket going 76(slower than before) in a 55 mph zone(a higher speed limit than before). What gives? Silly goverment 'math' I guess. I've only had one moment in my life where I was more freaked out than when I get pulled over by a cop for speeding, and it did deal with the police still, juuust not for speeding though. I'd like to remind everyone that the Polcie are doing thier jobs, which is a very important one. They make us feel safe in our homes and are protecting our freedoms. Sometimes we get busted, though I'm more often mad that some other drivers go without tickets and are heinous pilots of their vehicles.

check the sig.

you can get a raidar for the car...
it will make your life much easier with the police :)
and a spray for the plates (car numbers) for the cameras ... and you wont have any trouble at all :twisted:

I've never got a speed ticket. Actually, I've never got any ticket.
That's perhaps because I only drive for 1 year.

1 year is plenty of time ...!
12 months... each month about 4 weeks ... each week 7 days .. each day 24 hours !!! do the math !!!!!

just kidding ... for real .. usually when your still a new driver , and your crazy about cars and speed its a year that you take alot of tickets in it :)
you dont know were the cameras are hidden in the roads .. you dont know how a camera looks like .. you dont know if the lights have a camera and you go through a red light when you race. ... you dont know were police hide , and were they usually think about hidden ...
all of that will make you get most tickets when your pretty new :)

1. There are no cameras here.
2. I drive 95% in the city, so it's impossible to reach great speeds because of the traffic.

:arrow: Jim
what's your top speed in the city :?:

:arrow: Jim
what's your top speed in the city :?:
About 100 km/h. And that speed is a bit rare in the city because usually there are lots of traffic. I've only reached it once.

That fast for the city i've never gone at 100 in the city :D

my fastest is 150 km/h in nazareth in the main street at 4 am ...
so there was no cars on the road ... :)

BMW 735i ...
3.5 liter engine with V8 .....

im happy im still alive :)

You survived cause you were in the big 7.Imagine what could happend if you were in honda civic or crx :D .


and a spray for the plates (car numbers) for the cameras ... and you wont have any trouble at all

Do you know where can I find that spray (some link or smthing)?

What do you mean spray :?: :?: :?:

apparantly hair spray does the job

it gives a shiney coat/film wotever u wanna call it and it reflects the flash so the picture is taken they just cant see ur number plate

that can be true - hair spray isnt that shiney and it just couldnt do that. :?

i know were to get it illegally in israel but i dont know abroad sorry ...
i heard about it first time when somebody saw it on ebay...
so you can start looking there

get hair spray illegally?

get hair spray illegally?

nop there is a special spary for the plates ... i dont know if a hair spray works...but any ways ...

the place i know from a friend who rides a honda CBR 900 and uses this spray ....
it selt illegaly in telaviv ... ( i only know one guy who actually sells it ..)
the guy sells the spray for 23 euros ...

:D Men!!!!, you all drive fast!!!!. Well, let me introduce myself. I'm from Costa Rica. One of my friends told me that he was posting around here so I registered. My friend's nick is SHUBER. He was the one that started the forum of the Porsche Carrera GT!!!!.
Well, I only have a few experiences, as a co-driver, because I'm 16 :D :twisted, so my father is the one who drives!!!. The most we've reached is 210 KPH in a highway in here!!!. That was in a Subaru Legacy, but we had no ticket, because police here is like a fake!!!!. Even if you got a ticket in here, the highest one is of about 100 dollars!!!!

:arrow: :wink: Well, nice to meet yopu all, and I hope to be accepted in the community!!!

Those cameras get you if you drive in the bus lane, not if you get over the speed limit!! (i think)
I've never heard about speed cameras...

Yeah, I've never heard of speeding cameras, only Stop Light cameras. I can see how there would be cameras in the bus lanes too and catch you if you're driving in that lane.

If u ever did any stuff like that here ( the spray ) u'd probably go right to jail, they'd track u down sumhow, They do sum CrAzY Sh** Hurr

yeah indeed Ferrari chic ,

If they'll find it out here in The Netherlands you really have a big problem...
And here are camera's EVERYWERE!! , and we have Red light camera's by almost every big crossing with stopping lights!

Here it's not much fun to drive , if i read your posts i want to leave The Netherlands and join America or something :D

Greetz : Danny!

we have cameras too ....
but you can get a spray so that the camera won't get your car number ....
you also have fake cameras !!
those give a signal just to make you slow down if you have a radar...
new radars ar getting better.. and don't horn every time they see a fake ....!

nice game though :)

I heard there's a clear plate that goes over your own and doesn't let stop light cameras catch your tag/plate/number or what ever you'd like to call them damn things. Is this true and where can I get it?

I got a three month BAN :cry: :cry: for driving at a 185 kmh on a German Autobahn in a 130 zone :lol: but i did out do the Audi in front of me... :twisted: :twisted: OH and they also sent me a €100 fine :cry: and i was in an Astra estate :shock: ....
But as for straight off fines i got caught by a hidden camera in the boot of a car at
90 kmh in a 50 kmh zone and took a €75 fine ....
And every one that i know thinks that you can drive fast in Germany...
ONLY IF THEY KNEW :( :( :( ...

i see these thigns a lot on ppls cars, but never thought of it as something to prevent the red light cameras.. the police really don't care if you have one of those anyway, they're really common around here

There isn't any cameras NIGIZ in Atiiki odo i pass from that road every week[/u]

check real good in the internet , in israel i know each and every cameras location !
we have sites that indicates the places and which are real and which are fake :)

I haven't got a speeding ticket, I haven't got a car, I haven't got a driving license and to top it all off I can't pass to get my license, i'm only 11.

Hey igaboj, over here in Florida some ppl drive around w/ a SMOKED lens covering up their plate. There's no way you could get away that in California.

Here in Chile there are many cars that has those plastic covers, they reflects the light so the cameras can't read the plate. but strangely the cameras are not allowed to be set in any place, they have to be registered in specific places so everybody knows where are they. my fastest speed in the city? 210 km/h (130 mph) we passed right next to a police car, and they didnt do nothing cause they didnt have time to react :lol:

and btw... on the spray www.photoblocker.com it's 30 USD

Might get some of this stuff but i dont know if i could trust it i would have to lend it to an unsuspecting freind :) :)

My friend was going 55mph in a 25 zone and got his way out of the ticket.. :twisted:. Anyway, I know what your talking about Imprezza, we have some Rent-A-Cops here too. The just drive around in a cop car to scare kids from vandalizing, which never works because the cops can't do anything in the neighborhoods. I also know somebody that got a ticket for 32 in a 30 zone.. but there could be a flaw in the gun that low. I think the cops here really need money because they are EVERYWHERE in this little 8,000 person city. Personally, I have never gotten a ticket. I have a sort of 6th sense.. I kind of know when a cop is coming up, but my Valentine 1 helps a little. :twisted: Spend a little extra cash in your radar detector, it will save you TONS of money. Just one ticket really hurts you.. you have to pay the fine, and your car insurance is raised. :evil:

Well at least they dont raise your insurance prem here unless ya get points and the German Police cant put points on my UK papers :lol: i have a special driving permit for Germany and the points and bans go on there..... :) :) :)

wazzup :) what u say about >230km/h in a city, on one of the main streets??
just FREE, 0$!! That man is realy craZy 8) bmw m3 e36!!

My worst was a bust of 53 in a 35
Tried to dislexia as the excuse and got the cop mad...... :(

dislexia? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: LOL

speaking of radar detectors... I wanted to buy this stuff long time ago, but someone told me that cops can detect if someone has one installed in the car, and you may have lots of trouble because of this. Is it true, because now I think it is bull****?

I know someone who has been caught by a flash pole driving 220Km/H with a Mercedes Vito :D

It is true for the older radar detectors. But most of the newer Radar detectors are undetectable... I wanna say VG-2 is a term you would want to look for.....

thanks a lot intlcutlass. That sure helped me a lot :)

all of my Tickets where in the 80-90mph range. I have been above 190mph a few times on the Highway that runs through the City I used to live in, usualy street racing but never got busted for it. $300 US dollars for 90mph in a 70mph is the highest.

I have been above 190mph.

hmmm, what car was that in?

Modified Porsche 944 :D

It was 3:30 in the morning coming home from my girlfriends house, and i was really tired. i decided to fly home. the cop pulled me over for going 105 in a 55 MPh zone. That night i could have won a oscar. i got away with a maintanace of lamps ticket. :D

Worst speeding ticket.... let me get my file....

I got nailed on radar at 170 KPH in a 80 zone ( un divided highway) in none other than a Toyota VAN. Cop knocked it down to 130 KPH because i asked him how can he say that a Toyota van was doing 170KPH. it still cost me 375 $
Top that one boys.
:D :D :D

Didn't lost your driving license?? Here in the Netherlands you lose it when you go +50Kp/H more then the speed that is allowed

No i didnt loose my license. Thank fully.
Anyhow i think that the cop doubted the reading considering the type of vehicule i was driving. (I knew the truth though)
we work on a points system here in canada
Each infraction adds points to your file and when you reach 15, you loose your permit for 3 months unless its a DWI in which case its an automatic suspension for 1 yr.

i have 2 speeding tickets in my first year of driving. i want to buy another car.. will the insurance company find out about them when i buy new cars?

Yes, because you need to insure it. :lol:

If anyone lives in New York you would know about the Grand Central...the speed limit there is 55...one time i was out at like 3 in the A.M. And some kid in like a 97 prelude decides to race me...i was doing like ....120....my way out......A Captain's Badge...Captains Business card...A CHIEF PBA card and a Dective's Endowment card...talk about a savior!

OK!

Finn's speed fine is a bit rich

One of Finland's richest men has been handed a record 170,000 euros speeding ticket, thanks to the country's policy of relating the fine to your income.

You have to read the rest of the story and I will try to find out what happened in the end.

Oh and in case your wondering. 170,000€ is $201,858 or £114,903!

I heard about that guy before I went to finland, luckily, at the time my Dad was between jobs, so if we were caught we could have claimed that he was unemployed :P which means you pay almost nothing I think :D

Jussi Salonoja, the 27-year-old heir to a family-owned sausage empire, was given the £116,000 ticket after being caught driving 80km/h in a 40km/h zone.

Helsinki police came up with the figure after tax office data showed that Mr Salonoja earned close to £7m in 2002.

Well he has paid the entire amount!

:D :D :D :D :D :D
