Goonz SVT
Hard-core CEG'er
My luck finally ran out today, for my local people this took place at the end of the Lowell Connector. Theres a speed trap where it drops from 55 to 35 right before the traffic light at the end. I was going 55 because I know how strictly they enforce the speed limit at the connector. However I was completely unaware about the speed trap. I see the cop sitting there and at the moment im just coasting really because im coming to a stop at the intersection. I come to stop at the light and the cop pulls out behind me slowly, I can see him running my plates. Light turns green, I pull out and him behind me and then the strobes come on. I figure I wasnt doing anything wrong at all. He confronts me about the tints and I said I got them from Infiniti and he's like okay but he seemed not to worried about it and told me that he didnt see the tint and is not going to bother with it. However he then said that the speed limit at the end of the connector was 35mph and he took my license and registration without even telling me how fast I was going. He then came back with what I hoped to be a warning but it was a ticket for going 58mph in a 35mph zone for $230. Now the irony of this story is that I was on my way to class at that time, upon getting to class I found out it was canceled and so I came all the way to lowell for nothing and it cost me $230, im speechless myself really.
So now what do I do? I have never received a ticket in my entire driving time. I mean I got pulled over with the svt because of tints but I never once got a ticket. My record is clean. So now the cop see's me in a nice car and decides to give this punk kid a ticket even though I believe my offense was grounds for just a warning :nonono: Either way it is what it is and I believe I should contest because as I said, I have a clean driving record and a ticket to me seems a little too harsh and I dont want my insurance to go high. What would u guys suggest I do? What say you elky? what would u do?
