Stupid Stupid Me

Simon's ZS-120 · 02-10-10, 08:44 AM

After finishing my long arse shift went to get some food and as the weather was cold the car seemed to run really nice. just had my BMC CDA fiited on a week and sounds crazy on the ZS 120 any how was 12 oclock and gave it a blip and didnt see the 30 sign and got cought by the police doing 41 in a 30 AHHHHHHHH i just managed to get a clean lisence

the policman who jumped in front of me with his red light pole said thank you for stopping lol and congratulations your number 16 to be cought in 2 hours and we had to que to get our tickets as there were alot of cars the ZS was the nicest car out of the lot got 7 days to surrender my driving lisence and paper part

looks like i will be keeping the 120 for alot longer now but then again will be 25 in january next year so my insurance will drop again

i got done doing 53 in a 30 ages ago and it kinda made me take a new perspective, see everone speeding in 30 mile an hour zones and they dont get anywhere any quicker really, see people speeding past me when im doing 30 and theyre maybe doing 50 60 undertaking over taking, result at the end of the 7 miile drive to work, theyre usually the car in front at the last set of traffic lights, i mean just not worth it at all, i just sit at the limit, doesnt bother me at all. just look stupid pulled at the side of the road with the police.
time n a plce for quick driving

exactly why I got the zs. I drove home at the limit pretty much the entire trip even though I could have saved an hour on the journey. Albeit I ended up 7hours late lmao.
Safety first though, knockhill is the place, soon is the time lol

police are everywhere:/ espiecially when its quiet

Simon's ZS-120 · 02-10-10, 09:11 AM

just as well i stoped as the 4 marked traffic cars and the 3 unmarked police cars and 3 bikes would have got me quite quick but this car park was full of people wiaitng for there tickets

i like the counrty roads round here, no one on them, and you dont even have to speed to drive fast

, look a lot cooler driving slow than you do fast anyway, never see anyone speed past me when ive been walking thinking wow there cool, always the ones that cruise past n your like thats a cool car

happens to all of us dude. Im curently coming into my last year of 6 points in one day.. dont drive after finding your bird with some dude is all I can say.

Easy to do Simon, (cough) driving at 30, even going over a pothole can make you push the load peddle and before you know it your up into the 40's.

Lucky you didnt think you were dreaming and carried on going!!!!
