Twice in one day for speeding in Az. Once they saw my out of country license they let me go, lucky me. They both loved the car and told me to enjoy, just not too much.

Yea, I got pulled over last week going 64 on a 60 mph. now the bad part a white dodge ram flew by me i felt the car move he was speeding. and a cop coming on the other direction made a u-turn and decided to give me the ticket for going 77 mph. and since me and the dodge were side by side when he clock us he told me you have the sports car you get the ticket. i guess this is the life of a sports car been driving since i was 16. i am 30 now and i got my 1st speeding ticket oh well i am going to fight this one.

I have not been pulled over.....yet. I have fun with my car sometimes but I do it at "more appropriate" areas.

honest answer, no bull, and i know I'm about to get flamed for reckless driving, but i got pulled over 2 saturdays ago for going 132 on the 105W at 3:30 in the morning, but..i escaped with murder...i literally swear if the cop didn't mention he liked my car, and wanted one, i wouldn't have a license right now, it would have been suspended for a month :( but, i did learn my lesson, its no joke..

It was around 12:30am, driving back from my bro's with my wife. I come into my neighborhood, doing 30 (which is the speed limit for that area). I'm on the street before I turn right onto mine. Come to a stop sign, go through, notice a cop sitting just ahead with just his headlights on.

The streetlight there he was parked was out, so it was pretty dark. Next thing I see in my rearview is he pulled out and started to follow. Came up close behind me, and sure enough, turned on to my street, and he put on his lights. I pull over, put on the hazards, shut off the engine, roll down my window and wait for him to come up.

He then proceeds to tell me that he and his partner couldn't help but notice that my headlights weren't on when I drove by. I politely said that my headlights were automatic, that my indicator said they were on, and did not notice anything out of the ordinary. I offered to turn them on so he could show me what he was talking about but he said I didn't need to. Let me off with a warning.

Its a really small town, so he says "I haven't seen you in this car before, did you just buy it?" I said yes a couple months ago. I was half expecting him to say nice car LOL

I'm bracing myself for a lot more of getting pulled over once I upgrade from a teal Prism to a yellow Camaro. (If the damn thing ever arrives. Day 11 of sitting at the local railyard with no explanation for the delay.)

ya i was stopped in friday evening traffic at 5. the guy stopped 4 lanes of traffic including the carpool lane (which was the only lane moving) to get me and bring me back to the side. gave me a ticket for tinted windows, tinted tail lights, and the address on my license was from my last place (i purchased a house a month before).

Not upset that i got the ticket, i knew what i was doing when i modded the car, but in the middle of traffic he has to go and make more?
