Can anyone guess the make and year of this puppy, they pulled up by me so I have to ask if it was ok to take a picture. I only had a phone camera with me today.

Well I just got back from Austin. And bad news. Gary finally got a ticket, but wait it was in the wife's car, the Expedition no less. 75 in a 65. Shoot! Oh well.

Well, I'll ask for defensive driving, take the class, and that will get the ticket dropped. But I won't be able to get another ticket for a year, or that ticket will count again. So, for a year at least, I'm going the speed limit I guess.
It just hacks me a little bit, I was wrong, I was speeding. But I hadn't had a drink, I had license, registration, insurance, everyone was buckled up, but no warning. I'm pretty sure I got it because the older officer had a trainee with him that had 6 months on the force. I don't know why I was doing 75 at that point, I had been doing only 70 all night because my radar detector was in the Mustang and I didn't have that security.

that sucks man, I've had 2 myself. One was for 63 in a 45 (in the middle of nowhere, 55mph sign like 100 ft from where I was stopped), and the other one was for 60 in a 45 (officer stopped me in the 55 mph zone?), either way, this was back when my truck had no working speedo, it's really hard to judge your speed like that

"its not an excuse for speeding sir" - he also claimed he'd clocked me in the 45 zone when I asked "isnt there a 55mph sign back there?" - fortunately the judge lady was really nice, and took it easy on a student
