What do you want us to say? You keep saying over and over again that you have broken no laws, however, your being in control of a vehicle at 1 and 2 in the morning is BLATANTY against the law and the officer should have stopped you each and everytime he caught you (as I guess you're saying he did).

I don't necessarily blame you though. I want to know what is going on in the heads of your parents that they keep allowing you to rack up these tickets. Your car would have found itself a new owner by now had you been my child and it would have been a cold day in hell before you found yourself outside at 2am anyway. However, I guess that's a difference in parenting. The court will deal with your license issues by hopefully, suspending your driving privleges because of your blatant disregard for the laws. Curfew laws are there because they are and because they are, they are to be obeyed.

Son, you're probably not going to find any help or sympathy on this board. I'm afraid we don't cater to the stupid.

Before you try to claim that I'm merely bashing/flaming you, please observe this:

Quote:
stu·pid (stōō'pĭd, styōō'-) Pronunciation Key
adj. stu·pid·er, stu·pid·est

1. Slow to learn or understand; obtuse.
2. Tending to make poor decisions or careless mistakes.
3. Marked by a lack of intelligence or care; foolish or careless: a stupid mistake.
4. Dazed, stunned, or stupefied.
5. Pointless; worthless: a stupid job.
Getting caught the first time I suppose was understandable (you're young, you make mistakes). However, repeating the offense, well...

OP, Unlike The Occultist I am just bashing/flaming you...

Well dear let's see.

I've worked in traffic court for 5 years. I've raised one child to adulthood and am working on the second one (both boys). I believe wholeheartedly in teaching my boys to take your lumps as a man. If you're remorseful, say so. If you're not, then don't. I don't believe in making up excuses to mitigate your cirumstances now that you realize your ass in on the line (we just had an earthquake by the way...LOL).

You're practically an adult as you say, but you're not. You're a child, and as I've told my kids, all turning 18 means is that I am no longer legally responsible for you. Adulthood and manhood come when you can take care of yourself, stand on your own 2 feet and behave as a man should behave. Sometimes it comes at 25, but I know 40 year olds who aren't there yet. I'm telling you this stuff because maybe these are things no one has told you yet, especially if they are out letting you cavort around town at 1 and 2 in the morning.

If I were the judge, or even better, if you were in front of most of the judges I have worked with (one being the one that has dealt with a few celebrities - one very recently), then you could best believe your license would be good as gone. As your parent, I'd tell you to get a bus pass, new tennis shoes, a bike, a skateboard or a scooter and get over it.

Alright buddy, you want to know the best way to increase the odds of keeping your license? Get an attorney. A local attorney will know what the courts want to hear and has the best odds of striking a deal. You don't.

Occultist,

The OP spent a considerable amount of time trying to convince me that he's not really a bad person, he wasn't the only one with an intermediate driver license driving at that hour (like... i'm not the only one that robs banks), that the curfew laws were really meant for other people, not people that were almost adults, etc.

At this point, the judge needs to hand him his backside.

Wow...


After reading "I ducked down so he wouldn't see me", I was convinced that if he doesn't learn his lesson soon, his next post will be in criminal section...

Court Clerk, pretty much you're a bitch.

There are many more things I could say, first let me tell the other junior member that I will not be ending up in criminal section for two reasons. the first being I am not a huge rebel with a hell-bent desire to disobey the law (which is apparently what court clerk thinks of me). the second being I don't find this site any more helpful that talking to 12 year old that watches C.S.I.

As I said I would say more to give you information on why I actually ducked down, but... can't see it getting anywhere.

So sorry to bother you all, didn't know you were so stuck up. Occultist I don't direct any of this to you. Although you share the views of your peers you at least were respectful in the slightest fashion.

but i'm done with this site. thanks for nothing.

I very well may be a bitch, however, I will say that my son has a spotless driving record!

And yes, the OP will inevitably end up in the criminal section of this forum or someone else's. He's already so recognizable to the city police that apparently they are just WAITING for him to do something. Bad sign I tell you.
