Got one in st charles parish on 3127 couple weeks ago. Said I was doing 87 in a 61, although speed limit is 65. Anyway called asst DA and found out the fine is only $145. Said doesn't go on my record or insurance since check is made out and paid directly to sheriffs office. Collect and serve at its finest.

Was riding in my buddy's cobra back in college. Going over 100 when the lights came on and he got a ticket for 96 in a 55. Ticket was supposedly over $600 but he got out of it somehow.

$475.

Acension Parish

105 in a 70.

1999.
That was fun. I was being a dumb teen and was testing the govenor on my car (135 mph) and then radar lit up, I hit the brakes, but he still got an impressive speed off of me.
I was supposed to go to jail, but the officer didn't feel like it. So I just got speeding, reckless endangerment and something else...

This morning I heard about the guy in Finland that got the $60,000 dollar speeding ticket. Fines are apparently income based over there.

Finalnad has the toughest drivers test of all nations to boot. It takes months to take all the tests and costs over $2000.

Honestly I wish our tests here were a little harder. It is way to easy to get a license in this country. So easy I think those that fail should not be allowed to drive....ever.

Knock on wood, I've never had to pay a speeding ticket, so I have no idea what it costs. Been pulled over 4 times and rear ended someone once when I was 18. The ticket was either fixed before the end of the day, or I got off with a warning. I was at fault in the wreck and got lucky that there wasn't a police officer with jurisdiction available to write me the ticket.

I will now get a $500 fine on the way home from work

Tuscaloosa cops aren't that bad. I've been pulled over for doing 10 over and let off with a warning a few times.

The troopers are ruthless as are some of the small towns outside of Tuscaloosa.

Got one for $215 in Cameron Parish for 15 over.

A Friend got one for $269, for 20 over in a small town in Mississippi.

It sucks that tickets are what keeps these small towns going. All down 190, the speed limit drops 20mph for a mile through a small town and then goes back up.

Pulled over 7 times, only 1 ticket. Cost me $400 for the lawyer to keep my record clean.
