yea i got two in one day
from one stop i should say
i pleaded down to a careless and got to walk out with that and no speeding or reckless
my friend just got a 7,500 dollar ticket the other week
thinker 62 and friend doc were there
he is screwed
you still got a chance
Holy Crap, Is that a misspell or did you really say 7,500
What the heck for? Did you walk in with a lawyer on your case or did you go it alone??
Let me clear that up.
The tickets I posted I got two summers ago.
Doing 109 in a 55.
One ticket was for 295 and the other was a reckless.
The reckless had no fine they (the courts) wanted to give me jail time, 1mo to a yr to be exact.
Once you are charged with reckless in Oregon you get a free lawyer if you cant afford one (because its a misderminor).
If you have a job they make you pay according to your income, for the lawyer.
I ended up getting a lawyer, and paying 300 or so for him, and he plead me down to a careless and had them drop the reckless and the speeding.
The total cost was some were around
300 lawyer,
180 high speed drivers class (went to hospital and watched the people die with from driving and motorcycle accidents etc. in the er room),
and 160 tow bill (bike got towed when i got busted)
along with a careless fine of 300.
When it was all said and done thats what happened.
dont let me forget about the insurance rates went skyhigh
(even though it was my first ticket in 6 yrs).
I got nailed cause i was on a major freeway at 7 pm on a wednesday
My friend got a 7500 dollar, Yes seven thousand and five hundred dollars U S, ticket.
Because he was clocked 152 in a 55.
We were up in the hills behind estecada and not many people were there.
He could of got arrested, bike towed, and who knows what else if there was alot of traffic.
Instead the cop (who was in the N. Gaurd like my friend)
cut the ticket to 108 in a 55 and a reckless.
The reckless had a fine instead of jail time attached to it, a 7500 fine.
The speeding had a 400 or so fine attached to it also.
It could of been alot worse for him.
He has to go to court the 5th of may.
I think the fine had alot to do with the fact that when we were speeding he only managed to stop one of us.
No comment on what happened after that.
Maybe he was alittle pissed he only got one and said ok ill nail you but then found out he was a co-worker in the gaurd and decided at the last minute to cut him some slack.
I real dont know what the fug happened i just know i didnt get the ticket and he did. Why he didnt go to jail i can only guess. why he didnt get his bike towed i can only guess agian.
How do i know he was clocked at 152?
Cause for 1, i was behind him and almost t boned the cop when he pulled the u turn to go after him. (the cop didnt see me till the last minute, when it was to late for him to do anything but go after the first bike).
And also when we left the ranger station to head back to town he reset his speedo (it recordes the highest speed you reach. kind of like a trip od but instead its a high speed od and tells you the highest speed reached) he wanted to see how fast we could make it back and when we were on the fast part the cop was coming towards us in the other lane.
when he came to the gas station after the cop let him go (which i couldnt belive he got let go) he showed me his high speed OD and it read 152.
Thinker62 was there and saw it also.
You asked and there is the whole story.
So know you know
DONT SPEED UNLESS YOU PLAN ON PAYIN!
