now what..
I was in depressed and i needed food and i didnt realise my speeding.. the end result a ticket, a good one too.
how what? can I get traffic school for this?? this is my first ticket, how much will it hurt me??
edit:
so now that i had a nap and rested teh brain this is what happened in sequesnce.
So i get on to the 101 East - Around the 405 interchange i start speeding up (this is where he clocked me), i had slowed down when i noticed i was doing around 90.. then i kept it at 75-80 for a while and then the greenday song 'blvd of dreams' came on and i started singing the lyrics, and i think i sped up there. When the song ended the cop was flashing his lights and i was doing 75 then..
That is what i remember. So i dont know if I actually did 90+ again execpt the inital part. But the cop too said that i had slowed down and i took off again a bit later. But I doubt he clocked me or he would have put teh exact speed. He wrote 90+ but I dont think I went past 90 ever. My car runs funny when it goes past 90+ (vibration changes), so i must have hit 90 but not 90+.
When I pulled over, i told him i was sorry, i am a bit depressed and things have been really weird and i was not paying attention to my speedo. I told him that my ex gf had caused me to break down (she has a new guy - after all the tormenting - in a way im glad she has a new guy cause she will realise what she did to me) and on top all my spring break plans were failing all around me and that i was home alone and that's why i was distraut and depressed. Anyway the guy said the reason he pulled me over was because i was speeding in wet roads, for one the roads werent wet, they were dry / damp, not enough to lose control (i would call it dry). Second there was hardly any traffic, and i didnt change lanes to avoid traffic, only to change lanes to change exit ramps, that's when he pulled me over.
