I have had 5 speeding tickets during my 26 years of driving. I love to drive fast (especially when I am running late and in a hurry). The secret to driving fast and not getting caught is to blend in to a group of cars that are driving fast also. When I am stopped I just say "I am in a hurry because of problems and didn't notice how fast I was driving". The last ticket that I got was because I forgot my drivers license and had to go back home (100 miles to get my license). That made my schedule really close. After being stopped and getting a ticket I missed my flight but they put me on the next flight for no charge. When I got the ticket the policeman acted like I should be upset. I don't mind getting a ticket. I would never try to talk my way out of a ticket because I know I speed and if I get caught then I have to pay the price. I always go to court and if the policeman is not there I plead "NOT GUILTY". I plead not guilty because I don't always watch my speedometer and I don't always know how fast I am going so I am not lying by pleading not guilty. If the policeman was there I would plead "No contest" or "no lo contendre" and I would pay my fine. That way no points go on my driving record and my insurance prices remain low.
