Got my first ticket with Valentine1

Well last night i finaly got it.
My first ticket with Valentine 1
11:37 pm I was on my way home from my inlaws house (plaing pool, ME undefeated ) Gong bout 57 in 40, I come aroound the corner and my Valentine goes BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I slam on the breaks and pass a cop car hiding in the bushes, I slowed down to 40 and watched his him pull out from his hiding place and start folowing me. About half a mile down the road he turned on his blinkers and pulled me ova.
174 dallas bastard. I'm not sure if it was me too slow on the reaction or my Valentine.

pre paid legal is what i got.
They were pretty good on my other 4 tickets Case dismissed
on all charges but one.............Following too close.
Did not pay attention to the type of alarm i got, After he got me he turned it off imidiately, when he was following me there was nothing on a redar.

I pay my lawyer $20 a month, That is why it's called Pre Paid Legal Services.
So now i got a ticket i'll sent it to them and they will take care of it. If i endup paing something after the court hearing then it's less then a ticket price anyway.
So this works out pretty good for me

and I'm pretty sure he got you with a Laser, cuz those things aren't always on... only whenever the cop pulls the trigger to get a reading.

Happened to me before I got the V1. and also seen another bike cop put the laser in his bike when my V1 went off.

everything happened so fast!

Laser on the V1 makes a different noise. It's not a beeping sound.

So in any case you pay 20 dollars a month...you get a ticket they take care of it and you dont get anypoints if you win...what happens if you lose..do you get your money back, go to court for hearing your punishment etc.....?

Man I got 18 points in 3 month, after I installed my HKS exhaust.
My first ticket, I was driving with traffic and they were doing 60mph on 40mph. There was a car next to me, and I was driving with him. A cop was hiding and he pulled me over, he gave me 2 points and $90 to pay.

After 20 days I was driving home, so i pushed my car to 40mph then I kept on driving the speed limit which is 40mph. A cop came from behind very fast and pulled me over. He gave me 12point for no reason; he said that I was burning rubber. After a month, I was driving home too, i pushed my car just a little bit and then I slowed down. When I got away from the street i was driving, a cop turned his lights on.
-He started to say i don't know how much were you driving but i couldn't catch you,
- i said i wasn't speeding
- He said come on don't play this game with me. How much was u driving 100mph or 110mph?

-I said I didn't do that (and I didn't hit 100mph I’m not crazy)
- He said if you didn't say, how much you were driving, i will give you 20points.
- I was like WTF; ok I was doing 70 on 55.
- Then he said that's ok, give me your license and registration.
- He came back, and gave me 4 points because I was honest WTF.

Now, I’m fighting the last 2 tickets.
