I was on my way to Vegas two Saturdays ago going around 90-95mph in Barstow
all was clear in front, back and the sides of the road....there was nothing.
All of the sudden I see a black dot through my rearview mirror. I had a wierd feeling so I began to slow down. . .I noticed that whatever it was it was halling ***, by that time I was doing about 75mph but it was too late, ****** was already
behind me. Freaking cop gave me a ticket and tryied to make me feel better by saying "qoute" I know your car is fast and it's a aperformance vehicle but try to
watch your speed, he gave me props for the car!

The good thing of all of this is that I didn't get cought doing 107mph or else my
*** would of been locked up.
The end Almost fogot...traffic school....sucks!

Take the traffic school from home...they offer online traffic school these days. Nothin' better then having drinking at home while taking the course.

It is true that they use planes from Barstow to Vegas. They know we all look forward to that long strip of highway so it's common in the summer months. Usually the plan will tag you and then signal ahead to a patrol car.

As for the online traffic school, I'll have to search for it. I've never done it, I just heard it's possible in some states.
