sorry. I just cant resist not running this by TLS.

On Xxx XXst, 2010 I was cited for speeding, 4X in 25 mile per hour zone, in *Notorious speed trap city. crazy speeding law state*. I was subsequently ordered to and immediately paid a $5xx fine. I have have since been more alert for reduction in speed signs while exiting interstates especially when unfamiliar with the area.


too snarky?

"On XXX, 2010, I was cited for speeding in Bumblefuck, Clownblow. I plead guilty and paid a $69.69 fine."

Too detailed. Why would you want anyone to know you got a ticket for speeding while doing 4x anyways? It's pretty weak to get a speeding ticket doing anything less than triple digits.

Better. I'd personally cut the "learned a lesson" part as well. It isn't like a speeding ticket is a sign of bad judgment or character fault so no need to be apologetic about it, especially when it's a single, isolated incident rather than a history of speeding while DUI with a bottle of whiskey, a gun and 3 hookers in your car.

you don't need to write an addendum for a speeding ticket....

Some schools ask for it.

That might be too snarky

This is my speeding ticket addendum:

"I received the first of my two speeding tickets in September of 2007 and the second in July of 2009. In both cases I was traveling on the highway at approximately 15 miles per hour over the speed limit of 65mph. I was not required to appear in court for either case, and plead guilty by way of mailing my tickets to the respective local courts of the towns in which I received the tickets. Both tickets resulted in fines of between $150 and $200 which I promptly paid."

Too detailed?

[Sandro]

probably. I'm pretty sure everyone who was driven a car for an extended period of time has gone over the speed limit enough to get a ticket, whether on purpose or by accident. Unless you've gotten multiple multiple tickets for reckless speeding I don't see why we even have to disclose something as simple as missing a speed limit sign and it makes more sense to just say I got a ticket, big whoop the end.

[bigwillie]

Some schools specifically state to disclose speeding tickets. BU for example says something along the lines of "have you ever been convicted of a crime other than a first offense for any of the following" followed by a list that includes speeding, other schools just ask if you've ever been convicted of anything.

I'm pretty pumped about having to disclose the time I hit a parked car a week after I got my license.

[bigwillie]

Haha, that should be a good one. Yeah, I guess it's pretty ridiculous that you have to disclose that.

Anyone think I will get dinged for 2 dozen tickets in 6 years?

Really? That's an accomplishment. I don't want to know how much your premiums are.

30+ tickets in 12 years. Beat that.
