Alabama State Troopers have been urging people to slow down and play it safe. Apparently, someone didn't get the message. On Wednesday night, the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency shared a photo of a ticket written by an Alabama State Trooper. The ticketed driver was clocked at 106 mph in a 70-mile-per-hour zone. While the area where the ticket was issued wasn't included, ALEA said it was on a road with snow and ice.

It is so funny to see how many people try to use this in court.

It's not that hard to drive on snow and ice. The scary part, and the reason I chose to not drive yesterday, are the dipshits of the world that pull shite like this.

It was Saban in his Red Lamborghini with the big "A" on it. They gave him a warning ticket.

do those Alabama police hicks have typewriters in their cars? My speeding tickets (not in Alabama) have always been hand written.

It's not hard if you know how to coast and stay at a reasonable speed.

Many don't.

If accurate they should have spike stripped him and filmed it to see what ensued.

Exactly. Stay vigilant of the cars in front of you and don't accelerate or push on your brakes if at all possible. If you start to slide, just stay calm and slowly correct your wheel until your wheels catch.

Easy peezy. It's everyone else you gotta worry about.
