yo just got back from work/dinner and driving back got 2 tickets. one for speeding 65 on the west side highway, and the other for a plate violation. i didnt know the west side highway had a speed limit. to all nyc cops, dOnT hAtE tHe pLayA hate tHe gAme!
I have a feeling that the West Side Highway is either a 45 or 50mph zone...I've personally never gone that slow, but unfortunately that is what it is. These cops are just picking the Ferraris off and getting you guys for such BS. It pains me to hear about this...
i love the WSH at night. its right by the water, smooth road, not too much traffic, and the tunnel downtown. the cop got me exiting the battery park tunnel northbound, guess he heard me heading towards him.
Why doesn't FCHAT have some type of PBA fund by now? Instead of stickers and posters and highway signs and... A nice EC PBA card. How pimp would that be... Let's buy the Police already Or maybe like a PBA card swapping thing: I have a Newark card and an NYC card to trade. Both 2004 unsigned. Hmmmm...
Oh yeah I forgat to mention, on the way home from Sunday at Ben's I got a ticket while going sideways passed a NJ trooper on the Turnpike. He was gonna try and get in front of me to cut me off but I was going too fast and he probably saw that I wasn't exactly going straight. I think that was worth $100
fooken cops cant stand that **** leave us alone...we don't bother no body we just work hard and play hard so backoff fookers.
hey as long as i'am a cop i will never give a FERRARI A TICKET NO MATTER HOW MUCH OF AN ASZHOLE THE DRIVER IS.
Some cops are cool about it. Most get crazy pissed off. It's not like I saw the cop and said ooh ooh ooh lemme light them up. He shouldn't have been hiding damnit!!! Besides I was trying to safely merge onto the highway.
Why is it that when ever I get in the car with you Rodger we either get chased by the police or pulled over. Maybe I shouldn't have suggested to you to beat traffic to cut form the espress lanes of the turnpike to the local, hey at least we didn't make a U-turn there, only a Z-Cut!
I would not be surprised if the area by the tunnel the speed limit is 35 or 40. these days there are zillions of cops at the bridges and tunnels, playas got to remba dis
Sounds like they aren't out for EC cars, but I suspect we are victims of stepped-up police presence. Extra police for terror, extra police in prep for the convention, extra police for Bloomberg's image. And they have to do something to justify their salaries. I would bet (and I believe I heard this on the radio the other day) tickets and "Quality of LIfe" tickets are WAY up as of late. Us Ferrari Dudes just happened to be caught in the fray. Remember as you drive, keep low, keep cool, and serpentine! ZigZagZen! PS - anybody know how to get diplomatic plates?
There were too many cars on the turnpike to mess around. Besides, all the damn exits are too far apart
It's typically 75 bux for a no front plate ticket. I got three so far that I never paid and they never bothered me about for some reason. Nothing about it on the DMV records. <shrug>
Say, Lupe, I didn't know you were a cop. Are you NYC? Do you know any of the ESU guys (truck 7, in particular?) My Sensei is M. Rosati, ESU Truck 7.
i don't know about that. few months later you gonna receive due notice with crazy surcharged added-on.
