I had to go to court in Greenburgh to take care of a following to closely ticket. About 16months ago I got 3 tickets in one shot. I pled to two and not guilty to one (more on this later).
So I go to court and the State trooper was not there, he had another state trooper in his place . I get called up to the desk and go to see the trooper. When I get up to the desk he has all three tickets up there and he says that for the following to closely he would bump it down to a parking ticket and I would not get any points on my license. Trust me , I am more than frigin happy. I really don't want any more points on my license and can't afford that ****..
He goes on to tell me that if I did not plead guilty to the 92 in a 55 and the unsafe passing ,.. he would have dropped that down to a 62 in a 55 and a parking ticket . Don't you know I am so frigin mad. Right now I am wishing I never pled guilty. The fines would have cost me approx. 400 dollars all together but I would only have 3 points on my license.
Well anyway bottom line I paid 135 all together for a parking ticket and no points on my license. I really can't express how happy I am. I am thanking God that he got me out of this one because I don't know what I would have done if they decided to charge me with the ticket ..
so that's that part
------------------what happened 15+ months ago -------------------
I was at work in CVS pharmacy, I worked in the pharmacy and that night I was the one counting (dishing out the pills). So I was running a really bad fever and my pharmacist checked me out and told be to go home, due to me sweating and being kind of faintesh...
So I get in the Protege and jet home.. (at this time I had the coilovers and the 16's) ..
So I am on the saw mill pkwy and I am taking my time all the way down. I get off and get on the sprain and I am still taking my time .. I get to the 287 crossover and I realize how long of a drive I have. So I kinda speed up. I notice a white honda accord trying to stay with me and basically lost him in the myths..(he couldn't keep up) ..
Well I get through traffic as there was a lot of people on the road that night. I just happened to catch these breaks that you almost never catch. I look in my rear view and I see a bright brief flash of light and I wonder, "what the hell is that" . My windows are tinted 20% in the rear so I could not make the cop out amongst the other traffic. (bad part about tints). So I go on a bit more and I see this damn light again ... it is like a flicker. oh well whatever .. I catch a few more breaks in traffic and I am just out. All of a sudden I get stuck behind a damn van and can't go anywhere.. so I am sitting there and looking in my rear view and I see this flicker of light again . I am seriously wondering who the hell this person is .. The he gets behind me and just sits there. I don't really think anything off it . The van moves out the way and I spead up and move over .. Ofcourse then I was doing a little over the 90 symbol .. then he turns on his lights and pulls me over..
-----------------It turns out it was the trooper behind me and he could not catch up to me , because I would constantly slip inbetween cars and basically just be out .. needless to say he was not that happy-------------------------
Well anyway he asks for license and regist. you know the usuall.. But the odd part was he told me to get out the car ... ahhh ****..
And I left my cell and my Nyquil in the damn protege. ahh double ****..
So he arrests me and what not. They flat bed the protege becuase it is to low for a regular tow truck.
The whole way to the station the cop is doing like a 100 up the damn sprain with me in the back with these tight as handcuffs pressing up against my damn watch ... thus hurting the **** out of me. .
So we are in the car and I am blabing and running off my mouth.. and basically talking my way out of frigin charges and bail. I don't have any frigin money for this ****... I'm frigin broke.
So I manage to get out of the bail and the misdemenor charge, but not before I get 3 frigin tickets. . So I call my mom, aint no ****ing way I am calling my dad. He would make me stay in there .. as a matter of fact I would rather stay in there than call him.. **** where's my bed.
So my mom comes and gets me. I go through the 20 questions and leave.
So I get home and I realize that it was a friday or something and I can't get my car till monday becuase either they were closed on sat. or I had something to do(I don't remeber).
I go the whole damn weekeng fealing all depressed and ****. I don't have my car. It's impounded , I got arrested. Plus this is gonna cost me money and what not. I am basically just pissed.
Bottom line he set me up for a suspension .. All those tickets would have given me like 13 points and You are only allowed 10 at any given point and time in New York State.
So I calculate the tickets and send in 2 and plead not guilty to 1.
I wish to god, if I had known that I could have gotten off all three. I would have plead not guilty to all of them...
And that's the story I never told Protegeclub or any other board or really person for that matter. This is why I also never touched ticket posts due to me not wanting to Jinx myself. I have to tell you I think it worked because that following to closely is now a parking ticket... which means NO POINTS .
It cost me 135 bucks, out my savings account that I have to put back ... but hell for no points .. I will take it .. .
And that's my story
