Yup, just as the title says - I got a ticket last night.
Thought I was with you this am on 66 west near D.C. Rolled into radar at 80mph in a 65mph zone. Nothing. Lucked out.

Sorry to hear that but like you said being on Sepulveda will get you pulled over because there's a few things you can do down there, however I know of a CHP who has E46 M3 and he said he doesn't give no body a break? it's there job. Glad it's a fixing ticket.

WOW I'm in the wrong business... How in the World does a cop afford a 550i? Maybe a Sugar momma, or like Will Smith in Bad Boys...

That is just insane, cops in ATL start at like 28K, BHam it's not much better... The cost of living in Cali is much higher than the deep south too..

Sorry about the tix.
You sure it is not a CARB issue... you know no stamp... I know they are dicks about CAI's not having a CARB stamp/exemption label and Head lights being too Low tot he ground....

Actually, NYPD makes 90k + after 5 years on the force. Sergeant makes over 110k I believe.

Detective, a little higher, and Captain makes around $150-160k a years. Maybe I should become a cop..


Sorry to hear about the ticket. that always sucks to get ticket's for BS.

Somewhat annoying to spend years in college and post-grad study and years of engineering experience and have a police Captain almost earning the same amount, but on the other hand, nobody shoots at me
