Thats right, after about 4 years without a moving violation I got tagged. I was driving from GTA Atlanta to Greenville, SC for work saturday night, the road was more or less empty and I had the speedo pegged at 90-95 the whole trip. After making excellent time up there, right before I got off my exit I got pulled by a trooper in an unmarked camero following a little ways behind me.
I was riding the right lane, and slowed down a bit b/c of two cars jackassing around in front of me (hitting brakes, slowing down, speeding up, etc) so I, hid the 3rd gear v-anos (just not the same as the v-attack
) and pulled around to pass, and then almost missed my exit so I got immediately back in the right lane after I passed the two clowns to get off the highway.
The ticket - "Improper Lane Change". Its $75 - depending on when the court date is I may try to come up and fight it to keep the points off (I dont even know if this is a points violation in SC). The good ol' boy cop says I cut off one of the cars pulling off the highway, and in his nice southern drawl "I reckin you was runnin a bit fast back thar in this thang too, bout 80-85 - speed limit aint been 70 since you left the jawga stae line". I knew he couldnt get me for speeding, since he didnt have radar on me so I just didnt argue and took the ticket.
So thats my story.
