hmm.. me and my friend tried to leave another friend behind at the store. so he hoped on the side of the blazer and we started to take off down the street. we saw that cop, let the friend in then went to my house. the cop came and asked if we forgot a passenger. after laughing he left.
another i got pulled over on my bike. officer said he couldnt see my turn signals, had me stand 10 feet behind to prove his point then said to fix it before someone else doesn't see them and he has to filll out a death report on me...
picked up for speeding on my way home from indy. 80 in a 65.
lost control on a gravel road coming home and put my car in the ditch. Wreckless Driving ticket.
chased for riding a bicycle at night with out any lights. we hid out in some woods. (i was 15 maybe) lol

Like 5 warnings for tint, 1 for headlights, 1 for exhaust, 1 for license plate light, 1 for burning out first through second at 2am on my way home from chillin with my homies.. I was 17 at the time so still had my junior license 
Oh, those were all verbal

Got one for illegal exhaust on my first Civic. Motorcycle cop sitting under a bridge I had to pass, wrote it as a regular ticket and not a fix-it so I had to pay too even though I got a new muffler. Oh well, sold that car soon after.
Also in that first Civic got pulled over on campus for 35 in a 10. Cop chewed me out real good and sent me on my way.
In the Si I've been pulled for 78 in a 65 on the highway, know I was doing 70 and he clocked someone around me but whatever. Got it knocked down from a 4 point, $200+ ticket to a $180 fine and and Alive at 25 class. Court is great, haha.
Recently got pulled for expired plates. Wont do that again. Would have cost about $25 to renew, ended up costing about $230 after late fees and counting the $95 ticket. Stupid me.
For as much as I do speed, I have been very lucky in the ticket department.

billy had yellow headlights
guess i gotta get in on this one...I'm old so there have been several since the early 90's
-at least 4 or 5 stupid tickets when i was young for like 45-50 mph in a 30 (i got my parents canceled from their insurance co)
-probably 6-8 "warning tickets" in my life for speeding.
-I remember getting a 75 in a 55 at one point (got that one pulled by a friend of a friend cop).
-the crown jewel was 108 in a 55. the cop was super cool about it. He gave me a ticket and joked around with me about the fact i shouldnt have stopped because i was far enough ahead of him i could have turned off and lost him. I ended up getting that one pulled 30 min before i was supposed to be in court by my former 7th grade shop teacher who was also a cop. He told me at that time with the points i had on my license it would have been 2 years suspension so i got lucky! (and no this was not in a civic...lol. I was driving my bro's old restored 78 datsun...rip).
-I remember one cop being a d**k because i asked to see the clock and he wrote me a ticket for "exceeding speed in a residential area" insted of just putting the actual speed on the ticket so i HAD to appear in court.
-2 warning tickets for expired plates (i was poor...so what).
-1 ticket a year or so back for expired plates. I happen to work in a small town so all i had to do was get plates and go to the station and they ripped it up in front of me. there are some good cops out there.
-the only thing recently was a warning ticket for my exhaust. I passed a cop that had someone pulled over and he flipped the lights and got me. I think the ticket said "inadequate or lack of muffler". it wasnt that loud to me. It confuses me that a Harley motorcycle can be loud as hell but a civic that is a bit loud gets a ticket.
its safe to say ive had my share of mandatory defensive driving classes.
anyways nowdays im a slow granny driver.

well i have been pulled over probably 15 times maybe more. 4 tickets. one for speeding, 80 in a 65 which got reduced to an illegal parking ticket, one for my exhaust in a different state(f**k illinois police), one for my exhaust by some cop being a prick telling me he could still here my car a while after i drove past him, no s**t dude when the car in front of me is going 45 in a 60 an i pass them im sure you can hear me get on it. number four was for no front plate by another prick cop(cops in this particular town are known to be dicks, pulled my uncle over for going 3mph over the speed limit and tol him if he had any tickets on his record he was getting another one) mine arent too interesting been pulled over 3-4 times for exhaust, 3-4 for no front plate and the rest for speeding. best one was when i was a following an 18 wheeler going up a big hill going 35, get to other side and start heading back down so i go out to pass and i know i was going 90+, the mustang gt behind me started to pass then hammered his brakes and cut back in. i was like wtf is he doing its clear? look back and see the cherries come on. cop told me he clocked me at 72 and that he understood why i passed but sometimes you just gotta grin and bear it lol. no ticket for that one
boooo!.. stupid cops!
not gonna lie. my car is loud but nowhere near the level of loud some of the camaros, novas, mustangs etc are. do you think they get pulled over? hell no. my car WOULD pass the decibel test. the cop that wrote me the exhaust ticket i said was a prick was in the same city my uncle got pulled over for going 3 over. and the same city i got a ticket for no front plate. f**k Gerald lol
those are bullshit tickets. unless they can prove who was driving the cant make you pay lol. or just mail them a picture of the money LOL
lmfao
some guy actually got away withe some redlight camera tickets by wearing a monkey mask. lol it worked for a while, but they spied on him and prooved it really was him, lol.
these red light camera tickets have to be paid via kiosk btw, lol
yeah i saw that on the news. funny s**t. a guy on a local forum got one of those and asked a cop about it and they told him not to pay it. they said in most cases it isnt even the police that put those cameras up its some other company. dont know how true that is but its what ive heard
Haven't been pulled over yet, not once. Lucky I guess.
But I have been rear ended, in my Uncle's 04 Civic EX. It was totaled.
Exhaust is quite loud, but not too loud (twinloop). I speed only a certain road (Highway 52, road connecting Goose Creek and North Charleston). But I speed like an idiot on the interstate during long drives.
But I am very aware of my surroundings. I got 23/20 vision....lol.
I slow down during weigh stations, rest areas, and really busy exits. I guess I'm a wuss.
EDIT: I'm actually very surprised I haven't been pulled over for loud exhaust. I like to downshift at every red light. Well, I sort of know why I don't get pulled. When I see a cop nearby, I never do it. I shift at 2.5k. I'm paranoid. lol
