punk a** kids

 

Now that's funny.
Reading this thread, I see otherwise.

If you're going to be a di¢k, at least don't lie about it.

 

I really don't man, It's not like I pull up to lights and look at people and rev my engine like I wanna actually try to race people. I know my car is weak and doesnt have much power and I know the strengths and weaknesses of other cars.

It was not my intention to get flamed, I just thought it was funny that this sleeper owned me on a straightaway.

I have never gotten a ticket and I do not drive recklessly.

 

What's wrong with getting to the speed limit quicker than the guy next to you?

 

Exactly.

 

i actually got pulled over for that last week, freakin bogus

 

Nothing - if you can DO IT!

It gives the cops more reason to fugg with us. That's why I got a ticket for tint!

Besides, if you want to embarrass idiots - don't take a chance with a tC, but a motorcycle and wipe the smirk off everyone's faces...even Ferarris!

Even if you are getting to the speed limit, they'll ticket your for wreckless driving.

 

thats not what he was tryin to get me for, he was 25cars back (at least)
and apparently clocked me at 70

 

around here it's not called wreckless driving....it's phrased "exhibition of acceleration". The speed doesn't matter as much as how quickly you accelerate.

 

now ive seen/heard alot of things, but thats the first iv heard of that phrase

 

A cop pulled me over for "Exhibition of Speed" before, but he didnt give me a ticket, just to scare me I guess. He said he caught me "Grinding" through the gears off a stop-light. lol.

 

You say you don't drive recklessly yet you race another car on public streets instead of at a track. Sounds pretty reckless to me

 

i have noticed a trend...anyone saying "its not a big deal" is under 21...hmmm...
im just as competative as the next guy. but what would happen if there was a kid in the back seat that you didnt see. then when you "try to pass him up a hill" the honda driver loses control hits something and the kid is hurt or worse...just slow down..i mean really no1 else gives two $hits how fast you car can go. and its an automatic to boot....give me abreak.

 

Going fast is fun. Being stupid is stupid. Rules are meant to be broken. No harm, no foul. You can drive "safely" at a variety of speeds. Conversely, some of the Worst/most dangerous drivers I see are Old people who drive at or below the speed limit, but don't follow any other rules of the road, Eg. turn signals.

Not everyone who drives fast is a bad/dangerous driver, though some are. Many people just get ____ed off when someone blows by them because they wish they could do the same thing in their minivan. EVERYONE in the entire world has broken the speed limit at one point or another.

And so ends the greatest post in SL history... ;}

 

I couldn't have said it any better myself.

 

You will once you see the insurance bills from tools racin' and wreckin'

^^^ Yer wrong.

yup. COps are basically Pigs with insurmountable power. they can basically give you a ticket for whatever they damn well please. Then its up to YOU to take a day off of work and spend the time and money to fight it. And even when u do fite it, the whole system is biased against young drivers and basically assumes your guilty anyway..so you're basically up against an impenetrable instiution of corruption.

 

ya it seems you have a scewed vision of what an officers job is. its to protect ppl. now when a d-bag thinks his $17,000 economy car is a race car and endangers peoples lives...the officer has to protect the other motorists. think of it this way....everytime you see someone pulled over, that officer could have just saved your life cause that guy might has cause an accident that you get hurt or killed in. so just drop the pig and biased and the system is agaisnt me BS, it makes you sound irgnorant/immature.

and no im not a cop and no i am not realted to any or know any. im just tired of listening to people complain because somebody caught them doing something wherent supose to. either slow down or just stfu. you know what your doing.

end rant.
