Let's see, my first speeding ticket was 27 years ago, and was for 60 in a 55 zone. I was actually doing 65 when stopped, but the cop cut me a break. I honestly thought it was a 65 zone but the cop said that it didn't go to 65 'til a few more miles down the road. What I didn't sell him was that I was coasting, and didn't even have my foot on the accelerator when he blue lighted me. It was late on a Sunday night, so I was the only car in site, so a few miles up the road I had floored it, and had run a couple of miles going over 110 MPH. Thank goodness I backed off when I did, or I might have had to give outrunning him a try.....LOL
Beyond that, one ticket in the local speed trap ((Mom got her first, and only ticket in the same spot)), and then one a month back. The first you can't help but speed unless you slam on brakes when you hit the top of the hill off the main road (got hit for 43 in a 35), the other I didn't realize the limit had dropped and I was running 49 in a 35, but he dropped it to 40 to keep me from getting points.
Beyond that, one ticket for not remembering to put my seatbelt on, and I'm good on that part.
Been in more accidents than I can remember, but only two that were deemed my fault....and one of then was due to the fact the woman had no brake lights, but I broke both of them when I hit her, so there went my proof.

Today's Featured Article - My Ford Golden Jubilee - by Troy Estes. This article is about my '53 Ford Jubilee and a story that starts with taking the tractor to my brother's Starter/Alternator Rebuilding shop for a wiring fix. The generator was shot as well as all the wiring. I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that�s wha
