Just got a $92 ticket driving back from New London for not wearing a seatbelt. Is this normal for not wearing a one? I understand CT is **** about seat belt laws but I'm from Mass and cops around here got better things to do then to roast people's nuts over some simple **** like that so I don't know if that is a normal citation price.

Cops have nothing better to do than pull people over for stupid **** in CT. youre lucky they didnt add anything else ontop of the seatbelt. CT cops are ********. worse than masshole cops

Well I didn't do anything else wrong. Apparently he noticed I didn't have a shirt on since I was coming from the beach and right away could see that I wasn't wearing one since he was in the opposite lane.

Whatever. Didn't mean to bitch, just wanted to know if $92 is a standard citation price for not wearing your belt. In Mass it's $25, that's if they pull you over for something else first though.

CT cops suck. The ones in my town are horrible. I have been pulled over 2 times on my own street. Last time they pulled me over They tried towing my car because i didnt have my new ins card in the car it was home on my desk. I told the cop straight to his face your not towing **** ill push my car home my driveway is 300 ft away. I have gotten stopped for my exhaust i have the gmpp touring. He said my tip was to big. My tinted windows (legal) and those tinted plate covers you can get at autozone i had and was stopped for that $92 each plate.

LOL and for the whole new jersey thing. Yeah that def is a **** state I was just there a few weeks go. I was going over the George washington bridge then took the jersey turnpike on my way to virgina beach.

Greg:
The club I belong to is FCSCC (Farfield County Sports Car Club)
Home

Our next event is July 15th & then July 29th.
Auto cross is a skilled timed driving event. Cars run the course one at a time against the clock for a minimum of 3 (usually 6) runs at an event. Car speeds range from 25 MPH up to 60 MPH on a 45 second course. A driver experiences corning forces up to 1 G & the come at the driver at a rate that is faster than a Formula 1 car.

It is an all day event from 8:00 AM till around 5:00 PM. Winners are given a trophy at the end of the day. We offer experienced drivers to ride with Rookies to help them develop driving skills.
Preregistration is recommended (save $10) through a link from our website(our site is under construction so I hope it works for you). Preregistered entry fee is $40.


Found this in my e-mail after talking to a coworker about cars. So my boss runs an auto-x club pretty freaking sweet. Thought i would share this with all of you incase anyone wants to head over to do this. I already signed up for the 29th just to see what its all about. Hope i dont suck

So iron maiden was kinda disappointing last night. The sound quality was like a 5 out of 10. They had the gain on the instrumentals set WAY to high so you could barely hear Bruce sing except on the chorus. I hope mayhem sounds better then what I was listening to john
