Re: I got a speeding ticket this morning!
Posted by Beth1210
your right... for now. Just pray you never hurt anyone with the choices you make. I am really not starting to start more drama here.
But the purpose of a speed limit is for your safety as well as other people on the road even though it is "your license, your car, and your ticket". And if people (I do not mean just you) dont follow the speed limit because they dont get penalized, then it makes the roads unsafe for everyone.
Be grateful that you can get out of the financial penalty, but hopefully you will learn the lesson that is supposed to come with the ticket.
ok Ms. Perfect
why are you soooo defensive and rude?
She was trying to lighten things up before. If you dont want the drama, you sure have a funny way of letting it go.
Bottom line...not everyone agrees with you. Are you that childish you cannot accept that?
I dont agree with you, but I could care less what you do..ITs called maturity. Disagreeing, debating and moving on. Hence the MOVING ON.

b/c after 9 pages- it's old
I get the point
speeding is bad- I said it my first post I was mad at myself about it
PBA cards are wrong
I get it- you don't agree with me
I'm glad

Re: I got a speeding ticket this morning!
You know I had to go back to the first page again to see how this whole thing started!!
Beth, it irks me that you're getting chastised over this whole thing  I mean, in your original post you say you didn't realize how fast you were going and you were mad at yourself.
How the thread gets from there to posters saying hopefully you learned your lesson, I just don't get it.
Anyway

so if you get it why all the defensiveness???????
Not sure how you came to the conclusion that I am Ms. Perfect
I certainly never said that, do I try and obey laws- yes. Perfect-I dont think so. Not saying you have to be either.

because somewhere in the middle of this thread- she said that she was proud of getting out of this ticket. And when there are are only rewards for behaviors, the behaviors repeat..

I know- it's amazing- suddenly I am this mence to society speeding all over NY reeking havoc on all who cross my path
I was going 74mph in 50mph on I-95- not 95mph in a school zone
if I wasn't in NYC and the speed limit was the normal 55- I would not have gotten pulled over- I forget it's only 50 there
and anyone who drives on I-95 for 30 miles every day like I do- knows that 74 is about average if not slow
people pass me now that I have been trying to keep it at 65mph like the cop suggested ( so even he suggested I break the speed limit)

no I didn't- I just went back and read every post
I never said I was "proud" of myself- and I never use the word "proud" b/c I am never 100% sure how to spell it for some reason

your right, it was this statement that I inferred that from:
Posted by Beth1210
I don't care if you call me on it- I am happy to say that I have a PBA and I use it The Police give them out- so your problem should be with the police not with me for using it
and if that makes me a bad person- then so be it!

Re: I got a speeding ticket this morning!
My dad was a nassau county cop for 30+ years...he missed my birthday's and holiday's and I always lived in fear that tonight was the night that maybe he wouldn't come home. He put his life on the line day in and day out, got hit, got shot at etc.
For that I get a smidge of special treatment and if you don't like it....well bite me 
eta- I don't really speed anyway (my commute was only 2.5 miles) and I never got to use the benefit of my card, when I did get pulled over on the Meadowbrook I took my ticket because I was in the wrong. I just don't think the concept of professional courtesy is wrong.

 I just want to say though, that I 100% see the other side of the coin. People use this to abuse the system and feel that certain laws do not pertain to them. THAT is NOT cool.

I didn't say I was happy to say I got out of the ticket- I said I was happy to say I have a PBA card and I use it
big difference- I am not proud that I was speeding- I made that clear in the first post
I techinally I didn't get out of anything yet- I still have to go to court
and considering this is the first time I have ever done this- I am not even sure how it works
I have never had to use my PBA card before- I usually give them to my DH

Re: I got a speeding ticket this morning!
THis is sooo ridiculous!
She did it by accident. She is NOT a criminal. She has a pba card like most of America does and she used it..BIG DEAL!!!
FYI. I have a pba card and will most certianly use it if I have too..

I have a thick skin don't worry 
I could really care less if people think I am
1- wrong for having a PBA card
2- Speeding on I-95
3- Doing what the officer told me and having my Uncle call him
gang up on me all you want- it's not going to change 1 thing
