I live an Hour or so outside of Houston.
The major Highway to Houston is Stae Hwy 59, but it is part of the I-69
corridor that will oneday go from Mexico to Canada.
They have been pouring a new Highway starting at Houston and working it's
North. 3 to 4 lanes of fresh Concrete.
I got stopped going thru a small community that extends out and touches the freeway.
77 in a 65. I was guilty. I actually thought I was going faster.
Monday I stopped on way back from Houston to pay the ticket. $155.10 OUCH!
I haven't had a ticket in 20 years, but my son (still on my insurance) and wife
have had enough for the whole family. In fear of my Insurance co, I ask to take
defensive driving explaining the problem I was trying to avoid with my insurance co.
The person in the ticket office told me IF I would pay the ticket and not get another
in their town for 30 days, the ticket would go away! W T F?
I took that option, but felt like I got screwed doing it.
It sounds like a "damned if you do and damned if you don't" scenario.
For the next 30 days, watch your speed once you hit that town!
Mrs
Hey CRG, at least he didn't ask for CASH to keep it from your insurance!! ;D
$150? I'll trade you. I got one for $280 just before Christmas.
I'll convert it for the US folks. That's 12 miles/hr over the limit. I know for a fact it was B.S. but you never win on speeding tickets.
Sounds like Aintree to me ;)

W T F ?
The ticket will go away, B*ll S**t, aint no ticket goin away once its in the system and if the person at the ticket office knows about it so does your insurance co.
I would still slow down, a little.

hal come he won't pay it. ;D
'Cause HAL wasn't parked illegally. Wasn't marked. No Yellow paint - No Signs.
And just for the record... "HAL" wasn't Hal JR.
(Of course, Hal Jr. might have said it was ok to park there...)
I got a parking ticket across from Camellia Grill in N'Awlins about 15 years ago for an expired meter. I had a friend with me and his handicap tag was hanging from the mirror. The cop even wrote, "Hawaii Handicap placard displayed" on the citation. When I called NOPD to inquire, the lady said, "Sorry, baby, that particular officer is pretty much a dumbass" and canceled the ticket. I love that town!

That's not entirely true there are programs in each city ours is if you pay 150.00 to get in the program and not get another ticket within 1yr your insurance co. will never find out, its the program that keeps it off the books officially oh and i forgot to mention if you do get a ticket within that year not only does the old ticket come back but now your insurance will know about 2 of them :'(
Their "Program" only last 30 days starting on the date you "Got" your Ticket
My 30 days was almost up when I paid the ticket. ;D
