Traffic offences??

Traffic offences??

Yous got any? Had a near misses? Any crashes or anything??? Just got me thinking when talking bout insurances the other day. Plus Ive just found a parking ticket that has to be paid, that I got for parking outside Stephens house! :evil: Bastards.

I havent got any points or offences, altho I was pulled over just the other week for speeding. But the kind officer let me off I then went past another police car at bout 90, not realising. Aint heard anything on that one yet tho

The only accident Ive had was 2 days after I passed my test when I drove my mams car into a local shop. How embarrassing Everyone came out and looked!! lol. No crashes in my own car tho. Been driving over 1 & half yrs now. Thought I was doomed when my b/f crashes twice in a week and my best mate twice in 3mths. Must be my turn next

had 1 parking ticket, nothing for speeding & 3 accidents...2 were my fault & i went to court to prove that the other wasn't my fault!!!

i got caught speeding once... with no insurance... and no road tax.... 8 points and a £500 fine. steep. that was in '95. i was a tight/skint student.

Then got 3 points doing 49mph down the Byker by-pass - it's a 40. it was a sunday morning, not a soul about, dual carrigeway, walled on either side, 1 week b4 christams. i thought it was a bit tight of the copper and he could have just given me a stern warning but no. i even had all my docuements with me in the car. he must have been after his xmas bonus and needed a few more 'convictions'. that was '99.

Also had 2 identical accidents 1 month apart. smashed mi car up... 3 weeks getting repaired, got it back - 2 days later - shunted someone again. how thick am i.

i think i'm jinxed.....

oh... and i totalled my favourite car ever when i was 17... a 1980 Mini Clubman 1100. a concrete bollard made the engine pop thru the passenger foot well. she was a beauty......

I just got flashed the other night for doing 48mph in a 40 zone

The dam letter about it came through last week. Shite!

3 points and a fine?

More than likely

Been done for speeding before on the A1 going to Scotland, got three points for that to, although they've been wiped from my license now.

i had a crash a few year back, it wasnt my fault tho. thats it, and ive been driving about 5 years.....

I've been driving for nine years and had one crash, last November on the A42 traveling back fronm Birmingham. Some bugger in a van went into the back of me, he just did not break in time.

Ma poor car was classed as an economical writeoff - even though at the crash there just looked like there was a crack in the boot door - his van was wrecked - the bonnet was bent doubled.

Esure gave me £1200 for my M reg Citroen Advantage 1.9 TD - and that's after rejecting their offer twice.

I bought the car back for £78 and got the MOT done again and the garage said there was nothing wrong with it anyway!

probably the spare wheel well took the brunt of the force!

ive had loads of parking fines, just payed one off last week

had one major crash, flipped the car 3/4 times, about 30metres down a slip road on the way back from tall tress, not a very nice experience

been driving over 5 years, couple of prangs

though i got caught going through a red light just off byker bridge, £60 fine and 3 points

I'm still feeding the wheel with the plates on --> L

I was really cocky after passing my test and since then I've had a few high speed near misses - totally calmed down now.

I bet I crash soon after saying that!

Cookee - my mate's passed a police car before and because they can't prove what you're doing they let him off. Weird but true..

Only had 1 crash. Bit of a nightmare tho. Driving toward Coast Road following ManOfScience. Came to the sliproad leading down to Jesmond (the one with the blind summit). Cars were backed up and no space to stop. Made sure I got around MOS then stoved my front rightside into a top of the range BMW and cos I was under full braking, my front end went under it and virtually ripped his back wheel off.
Bounced across into the left lane and smashed full on into the back of a van, writing off my brand new Fiat Stilo.
Ask MOS about it, he's mentally scarred!!

It was a hire car thru my company so they covered the insurance. Instead of going to court and getting 6 points for careless driving (lost licence because I hadn't been driving for 2 years), the police sent me to a "Drivers Improvement" course. I paid £150 and dithered round with a driving instructor for 2 days up in Morpeth.
RESULT!

Never had a crash but bout 4 years ago somebody drove into the back of my car while it was parked outside an exs house and i was in the pub 2 miles away

Got caught doing 78 in a 50 zone on the M4 a couple of years ago, sent the letter off saying it was me driving and got a reply saying they had dropped the case! Pheww

One crapy parking ticket

my mate pulled up at a zebra crossing, when some numpty went straight into the back of him, making him go forward knocking the person going over the crossing onto his bonnet

LOL! Harsh, but the way u tell it is funny

Been driving since November 2002, no parking tickets, no bumps, no crashes, not knocked anybody over, and never been stopped by the po-leece.

My mate got done for speeding, he had to do that driver rehab thing too!

One of my mates put his car on its roof hoofing round an industrial estate.....theres now a full investigation going into it! That's unlucky

My dad once got done twice in 7 minutes by a temp speed camera on matthew bank, just after they reduced the speed limit from 40 to 30! Harsh!

Been driving just over 2years now, got caught speeding once but got away with it as they had no proof.
Got a caution for using a bus lane in Newcastle City Centre a week after I passed my test, I was pulling out didnt see the sign (as the bus infront was blocking it) which I followed into the bus lane, and a cop came staight behind, lights flashing.
They also pulled the car infront, who I was told was given a fine, whereas I managed to get out of it, I just recieved a caution letter home.
Dont really need any points, insurance is bad enough at 19 on a 106GTi.
