Speeding Ticket

Got caught tonight going 79 in a 60 (I was going about 90 luckily I braked). But I didn't realize till I got home that the officer never gave me my license back... If he allowed to take it and not even tell me that hes going to do so?

I doubt he took it on purpose. I'd call the P.D. tomorrow. Do you know the officer's name?

The Officers name should be on your ticket, you should be able to get it back tomorrow.

If the name on the ticket is legible...lol

You would have gotten a temporary permit if he meant to keep your license.

Damn 90 in 60 mph speed limit. What is big rush for? :rolleyes:

I'm glad you got bust. Learn your lesson and slow down next time.

I'm sure he just forgot. Call them up and get it back.

I'm sure he just forgot. Call them up and get it back.

Get off your pedestal. Does your car even go 90?

My car did go 110 mph once. I was young and stupid. It is not worth it for keep everyone dangerous. If I want to go fast then I will take it at local track.

I'm not trying create problem but that's law. Everyone should keep follow the speeding limit. Maybe over 5 mph should be fine. Over 10+ mph kind like risky. That's why cop doing their job to give everyone a ticket. I have got 3 tickets. One cop told me try use speed limit (55) mph and try leave early like 10-15 minutes. I took cop advice and it is work pretty good. I saved some gas and my extra time is pretty worth it. I have been doing that for 3 years. No tickets so far. I don't miss speeding

lol got the gtp going 120 yesterday, idk, its allways fun to go fast, you just need to watch were you do it, and have no one with you, if your going to be dumb make sure you dont put anyone but yourself in danger

Sorry, but no. You do not get a temp permit when you have your license taken away from you.

Is this from experience, Bobby? j/p :p

He probobly just forgot to give it back. Like others said, go to the PD and they can get it back.

If he meant to keep it he woulda told you to call some one to pick you up. He wouldn't let you drive off knowing you didn't have your liscence.

whatever you say, Austin. probably depends on the offense, I've had my license taken and having my ticket allowed me to continue driving for 10 days.

if you can't read the name there should be a P.E. (that's what it is in indiana) number on the bottom of the ticket that tells their car number or their employee number

i just got a ticket last night... 55 in a 40 but the lady was nice and offered me a seatbelt ticket instead... so i got a 25 dollar ticket instead of a 150 and no points on the license

thats nothing. lol. i got one on the interstate racing my friends focus doing 110, lost them license for 30days and a 320.00 fine never gonna do that again.

Thank you, AMEN!!! I'm not the only one that thinks the same way.

So your telling me if you owned a V8 muscle car, you wouldn't tap on the gas no more than 5MPH over the speed limit.

I'm not saying to go out and race people every night on the streets, but c'mon!

Only point I will take on your side is you have 3 tickets for that very offense. You just have no "cop-dar".

Palsut I don't drive like an idiot. There was basically no one on the road and all I wanted to do was get home and get a nice hot shower and my 6 hours of sleep before I had to get back up and go back to work... Sure I'll go fast every once in a while, but I know my limits and my cars limits. It was pretty much a straight away so im wasn't going anywhere but straight.

But I am hoping that since it's 19 over and im 17 I don't loose them :S

I stopped at the department today and they said that no one will be in till monday so I have to go back then. I'm now reading on how to beat a ticket haha.

If I own V8 muscle car. Yes, I won't go over 5 mph on speed limit. Serious. I ain't pay fine. Not worth it at all. I do have 3 speeding tickets. I have paid for that. Not fun at all. I'm totally over it. I'm 25 years old but I want to be clean driver. Plus my insurance give me very low rate because I'm good driving after 3 speeding tickets. They are happy that I change my way. Sorry if you can't handle speed then go local track like I keep saying that. I would take V8 muscle car to local track which it is SAFE to go fast. I'm not going risk all people life out the local road or highway. I don't care if you are "awsome" driver. There are lot of kids or adult in any cars. I rather keep them safe than speeding that I might cause some accident.

Go enjoy speeding and get lot of fines or gain some points.

It is law. That's life. I follow the law whatever you like it or not.

No point in having a muscle car if your not going to "use" it.

That's correct. That's why my car is SE

I don't need fast car but before you ask me why I get sporty look. It is just a appearance look.

Look... it is your life and do whatever you want to. I'm not going control you what I'm doing. I'm just give you a advice what cop told me like stay on speed limit and leaving early 10-15 minutes than your habit time. That's all. It is work for me. I don't have any tickets anymore for 3 years in row. It makes me happy.

Well it's hard to leave work 10 - 15 minutes early haha.

It was hard for me when I'm trying leaving early 10-15 minutes first time. After many time repeat then I start used that. For example I'm leaving work at 12:30pm. I arrived the work 12:45-50pm when I was speeding freak. Now I start leaving work at 12:15pm. I arrived at 12:40-45pm. In past 4 years, I never got any show up late work. I get good raise, bonus $$$ and wonderful employee. I'm proud of that. No wonder I'm still working in my 1st job since 2001. They don't want me leaving this company because I'm too damn good. lol That's long time but some of them still around more than 10, 15, 20, 25 years.

I get that, I don't have a problem getting to work on time. I just want to get home and get the little hours I can to sleep thats all. I can't leave my job early to go home.
