Today, I got a $200 bonus at work and was super excited about getting a plane ticket to see my family. On the way back from work I got a $300 speeding ticket. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, I was on the way to traffic court for a $340 speeding ticket I'd got. My mother called me and I wasn't paying attention which caused me to speed. Right past a cop. When I told the cop where I was going, he started laughing at me. I now have another $300 ticket. FML
Today, I got a speeding ticket while driving to my court date for a prior speeding ticket. FML
Bad timing
Today, I got fired because I abruptly hung up on my boss while being pulled over for talking in a hands free zone. I also got a $300 fine. FML
Today, I got my paycheck. I was really excited since I've been broke for the last two weeks. On my way home, I got pulled over and got a ticket for expired tags. The $90 for new tags plus $135 for the citation will leave me with enough to buy a burger. FML
Today, after giving my husband a ton of crap about the speeding ticket he got last year, I got a speeding ticket. FML
Today I was very excited to go to the post office to claim a parcel. I didn't know what it could be, so I assumed it was a gift. It turned out to be a speeding ticket. FML
Oh, the irony
Today, I called the police regarding people speeding down my street, because I was worried for my young kids. On the way home from my daughter's ballet class, I got pulled over two blocks away from my house and got a $150 speeding ticket. FML
Today, I got called into work and I was really excited to earn some extra money. One block from getting there I get pulled over. Apparently my tags were expired, and there goes half a week's pay. FML
Today, I got a speeding ticket. I wrote a check, and on the way to deposit my fine, I got another one. I put both fines in a box down town, and I turned around to see a cop putting a parking ticket under my wind-shield wiper. FML
Today, my wife received a $15,000 bonus from her work. I got a backpack from mine. FML

Is this normal for a speeding ticket? Seems awfully high to me. Unless you're gonna win the grand prize, take it down a notch Speed Racer.

36- I most certainly don't want to be driving with people like you on the road.

36 - The flow of traffic is almost always 5mph above the limit, but 34/32 (can't remember) is right that OP is a complete idiot. Anyways, congratz OP on doing something that's completely your own fault!

I love how you assume I'm a horrible driver because I don't go the exact speed limit. 5-10 over is average. Get over it, grandma.
Xrated_exctasy 0
if you were referring to me, I definitely didn't assume that you were a HORRIBLE driver, but if you think it's "prude" to follow a traffic law, then obviously my life would be at a higher risk driving with you.

Not that I disagree with you, but why are you commenting on the use of rules and regulations, when you're clearly ignoring the rules of proper spelling and grammar?

20 mph over the limit is a 280$ ticket where I live. I wonder how fast op was going.

And to all the people saying/ who will say not to speed: We all go a couple miles or more over the limit. I said what I said with the assumption it's a high ticket for a really high speed.

300 is pretty normal. my husband got a ticket for around 350 for speeding... in my car...

It doesn't matter the car you're in... Your husband gets the ticket, not you. In Texas anyway...

I wouldn't say the whole point she was trying to make was whether she'd have to pay the ticket or not. It's the fact that he was recklessly driving in her car, even if they're married, it is her property. They're lucky it was just a ticket and not an accident.

Most couples share expenses so a husband's debt is a wife's debt. (: My husband got a few tickets driving to Texas (I have 2 sisters out there). Me?(*knocks on wood) never caught!

I was fined 380 bucks for going 37 in a 25..but that was my 2nd ticket in 3 months.
marmlr339 14
everyone speeds. we all know it. We just don't all admit it. in Australia, a $300 fine isn't much. I got a $466 fine a while ago. and that was only 20 miles over the limit
iltby 3
Only 20 miles? You're an idiot.
RedPillSucks 33
Anything more than 10 miles over the limit gets you a really high speeding fine, and points on your license. OP. If you haven't had any other traffic violations in a long time, ask the judge for a "Prayer for Judgment Continuance" (PJC for short). It's like a "get out of jail free" card. Just don't screw up again or you'll get the past violations and the next one as well.

38 - Good job on the ticket, dumbass.

It depends what state you are in. Not all state do the points thing either.
FerrariCake 2
People, please put comment 38 in perspective: he's talking about a fine in Australian dollars, not real dollars. His 466 Australian dollars is about 20 bucks in real dollars.
