Speeding ticket

// March 26th, 2007 // No Comments » // random, sucks

I got a speeding ticket while driving from NY > LA a few weeks ago. While driving through Kimble, Texas I got caught on radar going 116mph in an 80mph zone. I wasn’t able to get out of the ticket despite all my NY cop connections. lol. 36 miles over the speed limit will cost me a whopping $294! If they got me when I hit 170mph, I’d be in jail. doh.

Well at least the good thing is that points do not carry over between Texas and NY.

Out-of-state traffic violations: Except for Ontario and Quebec, points are not added to your NYS driver record if you commit an out-of-state traffic violation. Points can appear on your NYS driver record if you commit a traffic violation in Ontario or Quebec.

road trip complete!

I drove across the country with my brother last week. We started in Long Island, NY and ended in Santa Monica, CA. The route we followed was:

Mineola, NY > Charlotte, NC
Charlotte, NC > New Orleans, LA
New Orleans, LA > Austin, TX
Austin, TX > Tucson, AZ
Tucson, AX > Santa Monica, CA

This trip added 5 states I’ve never been to before. Now I’m up to 29 states in total
