I've had 2 pull overs in my time driving. First in my first year I was caught going 78 in a 55, yeah I was just glad the cop lowered it to 73 so I didn't loose my license.
The second was for a me rolling slowly thru a stop sign(it was a T interesection with 1 part being a little used gravel road, I figured it wouldn't be a big deal). I fortunately got out of that one because the guy had used up his entire ticketpad. He took down some details anyways and said if I got caught speeding in Humboldt county again that I'd end up with double tickets. Not sure if thats legal or not but I was just happy to get out of there with a warning.
Not to completely hijack the thread but on your typical road how fast do you go? Me its 62/3 on 2 lane. 75 on interstate, possibly higher depending on flow of traffic. | | |

Hmm rolling through a stop sign at a T intersection coming off of a gravel road? Only written warning I got was from doing that exact same thing (minus the slowly part... I deserved a ticket)
Pretty sure I wasn't in the guy's jurisdiction though (The middle of the road divides jurisdictions I believe), which is why he pulled me over 2 stop signs later, after I knew it was a cop and I stopped for a good long time... |

If you were barely over, a speeding ticket probably won't affect your rates. I had 2 speeding tickets for about 11 and 12 (just keeping up with the flow of traffic) over with no affect on my insurance rates. | | | |

Actually the gravel road doesn't have a stop sign, 1 of the paved roads does. Dumb signing if you ask me. | | | |
