I got a ticket for taking off to fast
I got a $125 ticket for taking off to fast. i was pulling onto a highway from a private road and got stopped. The **** put on the ticket unsafe start from a stopped position. Has anyone else ever had this happen? oh yeah, i was barely getting up on it. i hate piggies

be glad it's an usafe start and not reckless driving. here in california they try to give you reckless driving as much as possible and they just love taking your bikes for 30 . plus as you have all heard COPS DO LIE. my reckless driving I didn't do a damn thing and the officer made a complete LIE of a story about how I was riding a 35 MPH wheelie around a corner with traffic present and then through an intersection. basically he pulled me over just because I was riding a sportbike with a scrapebar and my friend that was 200 feet down the street and he didn't see the cop and did a 50 MPH stand up for a few blocks then the cop told me that I'm getting reckless driving and a 30 day impound (and other units chased my friend and did the same) but anyways he fabricated a story that was 100% lies to steal my bike from me for 30 days and to screw up my license and cost me tons of money. plus here in california they can put you through priority license reexamination (which he did) and you have to go through all kinds of bullshit through DMV 5 days after the ticket before you even can go to court and get it dropped or reduced if you are lucky enough. so basically a *** cop can decide he can ruin your life and driving record if he so decides that he doesn't want you on the street and you can't do nothing about it. this is for you you ****** bastard
no offence to other police officers that are not ******** and that don't lie. it's just that ******* cops like sgt F***head give all you good officers (yes there is a such thing) a bad name.
law enforcement really needs to start policing themselves a little more and less people would be running because they are scared of coming accross that F***HEAD like I did. just my
ride hard and have fun, just watch out on the streets, my bike is a truckbed/trailerqueen these days cause I can't afford going through that kind of **** and money loss again. I'm still dealing with it.

s h i t sucks.... cops are crackin down on stunting alot in texas too... im sure california (with all the street bikes) have alot of cops that just like to **** with with bikes.
and yes.. accelerating to fast is definetly a ticket... they give those tickets out to cars all the time. And you are lucky, he could of gave you a reckless driving and/or endagerment to public tickets..

Hey just a little trick I heard whether or not it works but when you mail in your ticket payment send like 2 or 5 extra bucks too much on the check and they will keep trying to send you your money back, but just throw it away and they won't close your case and can't inform your insurance company so they won't jack up your rates.
It's worth a shot.

Re: I got a ticket for taking off to fast
you could have fought the ticket and won.. there is no law saying how fast you have to go to reach the speed limit long as you dont lift your front wheel off the ground.
lets say the speed limit is 50 on a road and your at a light the light turns green you get to 50 in 2 secs with out lifting your front tire off the ground your ok. if you lift the front tire off the ground they can get you for reckless... if a cop would give me a ticket for getting to the speed limit quickley i woud fight it and request a jury trial.. i bet my bike on it that they would drop it and not spend the money on a jury. Untill someone shows me a law that you have to reach a certen speed in a certin time i am going to keep reaching the speed limit in 1 or 2 secs...

That is incorrect in most states you can receive an "exhibition of speed" ticket. It doesn't matter if you stay under the limit, but if you accelerate faster then what is deemed to be safe you could be pulled over and ticketed for it.

Re: I got a ticket for taking off to fast
most departments have picked up on that trick about sending some extra money a while ago. it may work for some but do not rely on that. I guess hope for the best

Re: I got a ticket for taking off to fast
...and cops wonder why people run. If they would relax a little on the stupid BS tickets that just tie up time and money people would be more apt to pull over.
