No experience, bad ticket, under 25 years old. Might want to look for a different job for the next 2 years
Toomanybikes, Steel Dragon and SplashDogs Thank this. -
Still it's a good idea to get CDL now, in a couple of years insurance companies will look at you as experienced driver
Steel Dragon and SplashDogs Thank this. -
Steel Dragon Thanks this.

I remember one in Ohio where there was a stop light over a little used rail in the pavement. You stopped at the light, hung the trailer over the tracks and the law hiding in the used car lot at that light writes you a ticket.
Littlestown PA on a two lane state road has a 55 mph on top of what i consider to be around a 6% grade into town downhill. At the bottom lies the first city block, school zone and 20 mph limit. They usually get someone several times a day there.
15 over is bad enough to dismiss you from employment or even bar rehire for a while, but not the end of the world. If it is in Maryland and you are doing say 20 over 70 which makes it 90+ that's arrestable. Not just a ticket. I should know... lol. (Thank you MSP.... not.) if you have a fast car, get rid of it.
You would think most big trucks on governor cannot possibly speed. But you will be surprised again at how many small towns take advantage.SplashDogs and Steel Dragon Thank this. -

I've been working extremely hard on keeping my speed reasonable & obeying all traffic laws since i received my ticket. I understand that police can be crafty with their use of speed traps but I'm definitely going to make sure that I don't ever receive another ticket like that again!
Thank you for the advice!!Last edited: Nov 29, 2017
