Dammit! Only took 26 days for my first ticket in my E92

Anyone else beat me? I was counting the days as I was overdue.

Damn speed trap :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

61 in a 45 *sigh*

For me, it is inevitable every 18 months LOL... Once I am "able" to get a speeding ticket, my driving habits get more aggressive. For today, I would have gotten a speeding ticket regardless of the E92 335i. I could have been driving a minivan and have gotten the ticket. Downhill, on an open road. Speed trap.

59 in a 35, oops. 4th month.

I should have known it was a speed trap. It was a 4 lane divided road with very little traffic and a ridiculously low speed limit of 35.

my GF got pulled over less than 24 hours after she got it for going 31 in a 25 school zone, the guy was standing on teh side of the road w/ a radar gun. she got a no insurance ticket, no proof of owner ship , and speeding in a school zone.


I got one two months later for going 50 in a 40 on a divided city highway. I had red eyes because I was tired and the guy took me in for a dui. I had to go to the county for a breathalizer and he still gave me a ticket after I blew a 0.03, 0.08 is legal here in Arkansas.

Just be thankful you're not here.

This thing must utilize GPS coordinates? That does sound cool.

Yeah it does use GPS. And you can lockout false alerts like gas stations so the next time you come up on one it will not go off.

I said it once, and I will say it again:

What if the cops come up with a unit that will get your speed from your GPS inside your radar detector :P then you are screwed + it does not have the best thing ever implemented in a radar detector --> the ARROWS

I feel ya man. It's definately hard to not speed in our cars. We always end up going 80-90 without trying.
