Where Do You Live?


State:



I’ve never received a traffic speeding citation, though I can’t say I shouldn’t have. My husband tells me that I have got to go slower, and I do on the whole, but when I get on the interstate I’ve an issue staying within the speed limit. I’m not one of those that goes ninety and zooms in and out of traffic just because my car can, but I do tend to go seventy or seventy-five. I do go slower when my little girl is in the car, but for some or another reason I just cannot seem to slow down when I’m on my own in the car.

I know that I will probably end up getting a traffic speed ticket one of these days, and I do know I have been fortunate this far. I’m not nearly as bad as many people that I know, and I can not imagine that I am in the minority. There are lots of people who refuse to slow down, and they are the types who rarely seem to be given the speeding tickets. It looks like the people that normally follow the speed limit are the ones that get caught the one time they choose to go a little faster.

My husband has never gotten a traffic speeding citation either, but I think that’s just luck as well. He’s not quite as bad as me, but he does go too fast occasionally. Those occasions don’t normally occur when our little girl is in the motor vehicle, so maybe she has helped the both of us to stay away from getting a traffic speeding ticket. Though we should be worried about ourselves for her sake, having her in the car is an awfully obvious reminder to go slower.

When you get a traffic speed citation, you should know that it’ll add points to your driver’s license, and your insurance might go up. You can fight the citation, but you’d better have a compelling reason for your speeding.

There are occasions when a police officer won’t issue you a ticket, but they will give you a warning. It actually depends on the scenario and how quickly you were going as opposed to everybody else on the street. If you are going incredibly fast, you may find yourself with a whole brand-new set of problems. You might get a citation for reckless driving, and that is much worse for your driver’s license and your wallet.
