Your biggest speeding ticket or highest fine

Wow! It looks like a tusk! Great choice for the Necroposting award, by the way!

When I was a youngster, 127 in a 55, evading and eluding, Wreckless operation, failure to contol, 14 stop sign violations, destruction of public property, destruction of private property, failure to obey a lawful order, speeding violations from 3 different cities, (speeding through all 3 cities), open container, possesion of mary jane, open container, resisting arrest, paraphenalia charge.
I was a minor, 17, so I had a big break. I had to pay for the damage that I caused, 50.00 per violation, the open container, mary jane and resisting arrest charges were dropped.

Nice work! My respect for you just shot up several notches! I can't top that, so I'll have to settle for telling y'all about my most satisfying traffic ticket and fine. While living in Virginia, I had to make a middle of the night drive from Alexandria to Fredericksburg to pick up a truck. I wasn't happy about having to do it, and I was anxious to expedite the trip.

Wouldn't you know, I got behind a car doing 20 mph under the speed limit. It was in an area where construction had I95 necked down to a single lane, and I was stuck behind this guy for over 30 minutes. When the lanes opened up again, I punched the throttle, roared around, and gave him the finger.

Right after that, the lights on the unmarked Virginia State Police vehicle I had just passed came on, so I pulled over. The cop proceeded to write me a ticket for Reckless Driving (not speeding) and then said, "I bet you wish you hadn't flipped me off now!" My response was to smile and give him the finger again. Which cost me $300 on top of the $250 fine for Reckless Driving.

That's a good one. You got off cheap. The owner of the Tennesee Titans got fined 125k per bird, for a total of 250k.

Wow. Here they can still charge you, because your intent was to buy the real thing.

Heh I was in Ontario, California in the year 1972 or 3 kinda hazy exactly.

[El_Squid]

Yeah, The seventies are kind of fuzzy for me too.

[CeeBee]

The 70's are very fuzzy to me too... and for some reason I can only remember things from the second half

[slgrieb]

Not me! I remember the '70s in minute detail. Each moment, each second a vivid burst of dazzling color and shifting, polymorphic shapes. Every one connected by iridescently glowing streams of radiance like the streams of Karma and Cosmic Awareness which bind all organisms across the Multiverse. These memories are as persistent as though they had been etched into my brain with acid.

Yeah it was window pane,purple double dome,little dot on paper, a couple of other names I cannot remember, but it was there

[clauded]

you know i lived the 60`s and the 70`s and i cherish all those memories, those were the days,

[El_Squid]

The big difference was that you could almost depend on your stuff to be relatively "pure" in those days, not cut with some deadly crap that was going to drop you right there. When "acid" was straight, fresh from a lab in some university, not some nasty fly-by-night lab in a shack.

Let's hear it for our government and their lame policies and Agencies who have failed miserably to even diminish the "drug problem". They are major reason we have the enormous gang issues we have today, the multi-national cartels and self-sufficient terrorist organizations, as they have turned a relatively small problem into a major revenue-generating industry that dwarfs the GNPs of most countries. Go Team!
