I got a ticket 3 weeks ago for 80 mph, no front plate and tinted windows in the Eagle Talon. $551.00 effin dollars! Heres the list of fees which I looked up on the net for this. Front plate fees: base fine $25, state PA $30...huh, county PA $21, DNA PA $6, court PA $15, surcharge $5, EMS %6. Total for that $108.00. Tinted windows is all the same fees so another $108.00. Now the speeding part, base fine $70, state PA $70, county PA $49, DNA $14, court $35, surcharge $14, EMS $14....total $266.00. This state is such a fuckin' joke and we'll still not have any more money when they get mine. Watch out everyone and don't give them any reason to pull you over if you can. ![[BS flag]](graemlins/bs_flag.gif) ![[Mad]](mad.gif)

I agree with the illegal part but you have to agree $500 bucks for 80mph is ridiculous. I got an 80 in a 65 and it was $98 (lowered by the judge) years ago before this bankruptcy nonsense.
It's sad that California just rapes the working class to make up for their budget mismanagement.

If you were to re-read the OP, it clearly states $216 of that $551 is for the no front plate and tinted windows, so the speeding ticked is actually $335....

Unfortunately ladies and gentlemen the State is ready to Rape us repeatedly. This state is off the hook right now so watch out. We have all run off road pipes, tint, no plates etc etc. on our stangs for years but I suggest now we look at changing a bit following the law to the letter because the cities,counties and state will GET YOU. I absolutely hate this state and will be moving ASAP if my lay off happens.

Yeah front plate & tint is a correctable ticket $25 fee per correction. Went up from $10 each. $108 is the cost if yo don't correct it. Speeding on the other hand you screwed on. Ask the judge for community service instead

I did a light tint on my front windows so I wouldn't get a ticket. I also don't want to get cancer like I've seen from many people I know in the construction field. When I went through Nevada recently all the cop cars there have tinted windows so there department actually cares for there officers. The sun is just as powerful here as there which leads me to believe the state really doesn't care that much about there officers. The front plate I took off because it looks stupid on sports cars and everyone is gonna agree with me on that. Yes the officer did his job but I tried to reason with him about the tint but he doesn't care, he is just a controlled robot doing what his superiors are telling him and like everyone else is securing his job in a troubled economy. It was a light tint, not dark and asking to be pulled over but did not care for my safety from the sun. F this state man. If I didn't own a business here I'd be gone myself. Blatant mis management here and we all gotta pay $300 to $500 at a time. If we all just obey the law, we'll put the law out of business. Don't speed everyone. ![[dance]](graemlins/dance.gif)

Your absolutely right sir about some of that. But he failed. I have a modified exhaust which he should have wrote me up for he heard it for sure. If your gonna hammer me then hammer me, get me for everything and do your damn job. Do you have a mustang ? You probably do and did you love it from the factory with that wonderful restrictive stock exhaust? You modified it and made sound better, flow better and make more power like the rest of us did. You broke the law sir and be prepared to pay for it when the officer pulls you over and happily pay those fines. If your a cop then your a hypocrite and you know you can get out of it unlike the rest of us. I think you missed the point. I will pay fines when they make sense and there not extortion because the lack of mismanagement.

My wife just got ticketed in my F250 for my 35% tinted window. The same cop hit me for it a few months back. He called for back up and told my wife if he pulled her over again in my truck with the windows still tint, he would arrest her.

Fight it by mail I'm 3 for 3 got my money back everytime for the state and 1 of the tickets was for double the speed limit and state ref ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif) . They dont get paid OT when you flight it by mail they have to do that on their free time so your chances of winning are pretty good.

I didn't mss the point I've paid over 10k in fines tickets thanks to speeding street racing, but I don't complaint about it, what I'm trying to say you know your breaking the law be ready to pay the consequences why even complaint about it, it's not like you got ticketed for something you didn't have/do.

Wow man, thanks for the reply on that because that is a useful tip for us all. I normally don't speed at all on the streets and get it all out at Laguna Seca and such. I was just trying to pass some jerkoff clogging up the freeway like we all do and didn't see the cop at night. I just may try this out here and see how it works out and do a little more research first. I'm speaking out for the little people here on this one. The hard working people who have low paying jobs who this would be very detrimental to.

Again...it's the ridiculous amount for which there trying to make us pay. The fines are more than double because the state is broke. How can I say this more clearly

go read my post no one is trying to argue, is very simple there's consequences to braking the law, you either decide to brake the law or not. like I said I been in your shoes with a lot more fines than you, but why even complaint about it, I still break the law almost every day with far more than just speeding but I'm ready to face my consequences, you want people to side with you for breaking the law? specially here where many cops post.
The fines seem pretty normal for something you got on the mail, once you show up to court is going to get lowered by almost 50%

Come on man you've got to be kidding me 10K in fines so your telling me you paid fine after fine and smiled? $500 to me is alot of money thats almost a months groceries for my family and it is a damn shame some people cant show a little bit of sympethy for the working class
You must be a very rich man, I understand the man broke the law BUT speeding is a little different a law than stealing or killing. I got pulled over sunday night doing 80mph as well by CHP and he let me go with a warning I was happy as hell cuz had I got thagt ticket id be done for

15mph ABOVE the posted speed limit, I think the fines you received are more than fair.
I received a ticket recently for cell phone use while driving. $138.... I KNOW IT'S ILLEGAL, I'M NOT COMING ON HERE BITCHING ABOUT HOW MUCH THEY CHARGED ME. If they charged me a grand they could, EVERYONE KNOWS IT'S ILLEGAL, JUST AS YOU KNOW EVERYTHING YOU WERE WRITTEN UP FOR IS ILLEGAL......
Play you pay.....
