on the way home from vegas yesterday me and a friend were pulled over in victorville for going 130 in a 70. the airplane started following us in barstow and had chp setup down the freeway waiting for us. they said that being that we had good attitudes that they'd dropped the speed from 130 to 115. we have court in june and they didnt even put a price on the ticket. do any of you guys know how much the tickets in california are for going that fast on the freeway or if we will get our licenses suspended??

 

[sm=bustedsign.gif]sorry, I don't have any idea, good luck though

 

thanks, im gonna need it

 

that sucks man! your lucky they didn't tow your bikes. 25 over in cali is a big no no..

 

i always thought that wreckless driving was when you go double the speed limit. one of the first things that the cop said to us was that they were gonna take us to jail for wreckless driving. they ended up being pretty cool though.

 

i just found this on the ca dmv website

Excessive Speed and Designated Lane Use

22348. (a) Notwithstanding subdivision (b) of Section 22351, a person shall not drive a vehicle upon a highway with a speed limit established pursuant to Section 22349 or 22356 at a speed greater than that speed limit.

(b) A person who drives a vehicle upon a highway at a speed greater than 100 miles per hour is guilty of an infraction punishable, as follows:

(1) Upon a first conviction of a violation of this subdivision, by a fine of not to exceed five hundred dollars ($500). The court may also suspend the privilege of the person to operate a motor vehicle for a period not to exceed 30 days pursuant to Section 13200.5.

22348 was my violation

 

wreckless driving is anything over 95 and if you have a passenger it can also be considered attempted murder. Ca laws are gay like that

 

DAMN

 

Got a ticket here in Dallas for 151 in a 65 and got away with a ticket. Ticket cost me $295. I was really shocked. Good luck with yours.

 

the cops could definitely have been tougher on you. ya definitely got lucky in that aspect best of luck with your day in court. let us know what the outcome is...
