My rule since I got my license is never go more then 7 over the limit.

Good thread. Sorry to hear about your luck, but like most I am impressed with the way you are handling it.

Now more importantly, where exactly did this happen? I'm also in Northern VA and don't want to go anywhere near that street!

Hope to see you on the road sometime soon once you get this all cleared up. Mistakes are tough, but they are what you learn the most from.

Impressive. Glad you learned something from just one of life's lessons...trust me, there's more to follow. But you keep that kind of responsible thinking going, and you'll go far! Bravo Zulu, padawan!!

So the Way to get around tickets and get the trill ? Go to the Drag strip plain and simple controlled setting Safer than the street and a whole lot of fun take your Girl friend too. But she has to have short shorts?LOL. be safer young Man .

Good luck with the parents getting over it.

If only other teens could read this thread and realize that speeding is worthless. I'm 62 and only had 2 tickets driving 10 miles (in 40 miles lmit) over the speed limits since age 18. But I still do some fast starts, but I quit at the speed limit....And our Camaro now have a speed limiter (warning), this should be a standard equipment. I would even suggest that parents do have a control of the max speed they decide on and block the entry and have a password to verify if their kids did go over the limit (same as stools in big trucks).

I imagine your parents will have a chance to read your comments and give you an other chance in a near future.

Good luck.
