It was only a matter of time...

Hey it's been about 10 years since the law has stopped me for a traffic infraction and not less than a block from my house it happened yesterday afternoon LOL. You know the 4 way stop before you make the right on to my street Todd? Well Mr. policeman ticketed me for not coming to a full stop there. It was a good run while it lasted

How come that doesn't suprise me Throttle slow down there clutch there is no FIRE you are going too.You should have been in the fire dept you would always be the first on the scene .

Did you come to a complete stop after you hit the police car ? That really sucks , the points and the fine and surcharge make it a real kick in the butt. The thing to be real careful about is another ticket and its financial consequences. The stop sign violation will get you 3 points. If you are unlucky enough to get another violation resulting in 3 points within 18 months not only do you have to pay that fine and surcharge but you are also liable for a $300 Driver Safety Assessment Fee . By the time you are all done you could of just about bought two shiny new LX5s.

Dave it's a plea down to a failure to obey, 1 pt if not completely obliterated depending how I feel when I go to court.

Thats much, much better. Just wanted to let everyone know about that lovely $300 driver safety assesment fee the state has come up with. Not too many people are aware of it, I think it went into effect at the end of 2004. I didn't know anything about it until a friend called me for some advice. For a speeding ticket (a well deserved one at that but even so) it ended up costing him close to $500. Ouch!

Walleye season is right around the corner
