So if you are 17, I'd be interested to know what you do where you can swing 400+ a month and still have money to do things you want.

Side note, if you are explaining the things you have by saying your parents are good at their profession, then that means they give you a lot.... The question of whether you're spoiled or not is a matter of how much you are given, and the value of those items. A little self awareness goes a long way.


As for the topic of this thread.... No. I drive an SS and live in a College Town. I don't waste any time taking off from lights, not even when around cops. I drive the car responsibly and safely, without driving like an old woman on Sunday morning and I have only been pulled over once (Rolling stop in downtown after just picking it up and learning the stick shift -- no ticket). I know several others with camaros and none of them have been pulled over once. If you got pulled, it's because you broke the law. Either stop breaking the law, or accept the fact that there are consequences for having "fun" and stop looking for a scapegoat.
I actually have three jobs, and pay 400 a month for my insurance. Nie try
