Lets see, over 14 years of driving

Speeding 75 in a 70 zone (bored MI state cop)
No seat belt (pulled over for speeding, took off belt to get wallet from back seat)
Driving on a suspended Lic (for not paying the speeding ticket)

Brick - you should live here in RI. The text following is actually still law here. :evilgrin:
************************************************** ******
TITLE 31
Motor and Other vehicles
CHAPTER 31-15
Passing, Use of Lanes, and Rules of the Road
SECTION 31-15-4

§ 31-15-4 Overtaking on left. – The following rules shall govern the overtaking and passing of vehicles proceeding in the same direction, subject to those limitations, exceptions, and special rules stated in this section:
(1) The driver of a vehicle overtaking another vehicle proceeding in the same direction shall give a timely, audible signal and shall pass to the left at a safe distance and shall not again drive to the right side of the roadway until safely clear of the overtaken vehicle.
(2) Except when overtaking and passing on the right is permitted, the driver of the front vehicle on the audible signal of the overtaking vehicle shall give way to the right, and shall not increase speed until completely passed by the overtaking vehicle.
************************************************** **

No prizes for guessing what a "timely, audible signal" can best be made with.

Another member and I were driving to NEOH on the freeway and were pegged by airplane. We were said to be "clocked at 77 MPH, and then seen accellerating to speeds well above that." Not bad for a couple Yarii.

In 12 years of driving I've gotten only 1 citation. And that was for a headlight being out on a (used) car that I had owned for only 14 hours.

Damn... Ya'll are rookies
1 DUI
1 10 over speeding
1 16 over speeding
1 carless operation
2 window tint tickets
3 times been pulled over because I matched the descripion of...
2 times got out of DUI's because I was so close to my house
2 times got out of going over double the speed limit in a school/construction zone, because I told them my brother is a cop (which he realy is)

that is all I can think of right now... I will edit it if I can think of the rest...... Oh yeah did I mention I will be 26 in less than a month, so I have acomplished this in about 10 years of driving... well minus the 6 months they took my licence after the DUI

yeah, I didn't mention the several speeding tickets and being pulled over for "suspiscion" a few times

i used to smoke a lot of pot, I don't smoke these days and it's been a few years ago since I quit but one time I got pulled over for speeding and I had all kinds of parifinalia in the car and an open ashtray loaded with seeds and stems and for whatever reason , maybe he just didn't notice, I was warned for speeding and let off

recently got pulled over by a cool lady cop and just played the good old boy role, she ate it up and let me off

Nothing here yet (crossing fingers), though I have not been driving all that long (and cops are not always all that serious about traffic violations here).

Worst violation that happened when I was in car, but with someone else driving, was going into a one-way street, the wrong way, right in front of a cop! In my friend's defense, though, the "do not turn" sign was obscured by a tree branch...

Yeah... we're boring...

My worst is speeding in a School zone, was doing 48...being dumb at 16, Cop popped me with a $555.50 ticket, and I didnt get traffic school, so almost got my license suspended at 17.

Other than that: in 4 years
-1 48 in a 15 school zone
-1 63 in a 40
-1 Improper Representation of Vehicle Identification (Registration)
-1 Improper / Unsafe U-turn
-4 Warnings for Speeding/Street Racing etc.
-1 Accident involving a Deer with Hydroplaning (Hydroplaned after swerving from Deer) Lets Just say that Grand Prix's dont make a 4x4 model.
