So I put 2,200 miles on my motorcycle its the first one I owned. I'm 16 and turning 17 this August. The first 1000 miles were minor I got cut infront of once and cut one person off. Got stopped and given a warning for a rolling stop. The next 1,200 miles are good untill.... I got pulled over this wekeend (saturday) I got clocked doing 100 in a 35 and so on and so on I got two tickets out of it all. I got Excessive speed. and I got Eluding. I wont be able to ride anything again legally till I'm 18...I will find out when I go to court. So I know im an idiot and shouldnt have done what I did but nothing I can do now. I will see you guys on the road in a couple years. Ill be back.

:laughing:

see in you 2 years...

damn! i wonder what could have happened if i got caught when i did 137mph on a 65mph freeway.

of course, i wouldn't elude so that will lessen my punishment.

Yeah the fines are the crappy part. $500-$1,000 for the speeding. and a couple hundred for eluding.

your going to contest the tickets, right? was the eluding BS or did you try to run?

I didnt give him a chase. I can't stop on a dime going 100 MPH.

get a lawyer and contest it, you should be able to shake the eluding charge

That's why they don't want you doing 100 in those areas... :roll:

Still tough break, hopefully you'll learn to control the wrist by the time you turn 18, and hey, there's always dirtbikes, right? :)
