I’m very happy for you that this worked out and that you learned something from this. Best wishes moving forward.

GB-man · 30 November 2018, 01:23 PM

That’s a result you can live with. Glad it worked out. Now since your license is safe forget the Jeep/4runner you should probably entertain a 911 GT2RS

Romeojk · 30 November 2018, 01:44 PM

I’m not sure what happened but can read between the lines. I’m glad your okay and everyone’s safe.

Welcome aboard to the slow lane! Where people like me set their cruise control on 64

Glad it worked out well, considering how it could have gone.

colpol · 30 November 2018, 09:12 PM

Saw the original thread too

I’m sure all things were taken into account for that outcome. Hope you enjoy & learn from the course

andromeda160 · 30 November 2018, 09:26 PM

some 17 year old got let go with a ticket after getting pulled over going 138 and attempting to dodge the police that was in the local news yesterday. told the Trooper he was trying to make it home before curfew

1William · 30 November 2018, 09:51 PM

I am glad that it worked out for you. A lesion leaved is a lesion learned.

Jojoshop · 30 November 2018, 10:28 PM

Happy for you and glad it went well, Enjoy the holidays and be safe

The Libertine · 1 December 2018, 12:02 AM

Seth, how you handled this situation, is what reveals your true character.

Glad it is over, and you can now move forward.

Headshrinker · 1 December 2018, 12:37 AM

I am glad everything worked out well for you. Once in a while, I to, fight the urge to see what my car can do; I have come to the conclusion that sometimes it’s just enough to know what you have than to show it. I’d say 20 to 30% of the time that I am at a stop light, someone wants to test my 911 Turbo S. It’s fun to just creep off the line, knowing that I had the bigger dog.

mjclark32 · 1 December 2018, 01:28 AM

Glad you lucked out. Could have been ugly if not. Have a great weekend

encarter13 · 1 December 2018, 01:47 AM

I did not see the other thread, but I assume you were caught driving very fast.

The comment I replied to yesterday regarding the GTS, slowing down, and Jeep Wrangler now make more sense.

Congratulations on the favorable outcome.

Beo3 · 1 December 2018, 01:53 AM

All I can say is WOW! I am very happy for the outcome you got, but I cannot believe that it was that light.

As the old folks say "Let that be a lesson to you"... LOL!

Glad it worked out in your favor!

bayerische · 1 December 2018, 02:14 AM

We all do mistakes.

SC11 · 1 December 2018, 03:15 AM

We all make mistakes, as long as you learn from them and no ones hurt notch it up as a lesson learnt, keep on enjoying that beauty of a motor you have

x2!

Glad it worked out Seth, have a good weekend.

G8RDPM · 1 December 2018, 03:19 AM

Glad to hear of this good outcome!

You are a stand up guy!

dddrees · 1 December 2018, 03:57 AM

Take care as we all make mistakes. Sometimes we get lucky, but we all know it's much better that we don't rely on luck and do the right thing to begin with.

superdog · 1 December 2018, 03:59 AM

Thanks all. I appreciate the nice comments.

I am incredibly relieved with how this all turned out. And again, grateful for the nice folks here on this forum.

My buddy had lunch with a bunch of his lawyer and judge buddies. they all felt I would definitely lose my license. BUT overwhelmingly they stated that he should suggest I hire the PD. He would be my best chance.

And clearly it worked out super.

that seems odd.

how would this be news if he was let go.

and a cop letting a 17 year old at 138 off the hook seems contrary to all the things I have learned this week.

but hey, stranger things have happened.

edit: whoops. I see he got a ticket. I hope he hires the PD. but not sure he is goin to get anything off at 138 and being 17. that's bad.

My guess is he will be taking an Uber here soon, it was around $1800/yr for PLPD on my Tahoe when I was 17 with no tickets. Can’t imagine what a ticket like that would do to the rates. And he is going to get no breaks, plenty are already faulting the Trooper for not impounding his car and handing him a RD ticket.
Also curious what 2012 Chevy he has that was cruising at 138

joerivers1961 · 1 December 2018, 04:18 AM

This is great to read. I had a similar situation a few years back in upstate NY. I also went to court and was very lucky. It's a very stressful situation. Especially having a judge talking to you directly. Let me just tell you that I've not been pulled over since. We live and learn

Beckster · 1 December 2018, 04:24 AM

Good for you Seth. Glad you got off with a relatively ‘inexpensive’ lesson in the end. And it’s a timely reminder to all of us. Be safe everyone!

Thanks for the explanation. Great move on your part. I never would have thought of this.

The Joker · 1 December 2018, 08:27 AM

Great news Seth

Now what about that ferrari you had your eye on.

Laszlo · 1 December 2018, 01:13 PM

You’re one lucky dude!! Glad lessons were learned. Best to keep excessive speed on the track and away from wallet.

Burlington · 1 December 2018, 02:12 PM

And I thought it was cats that had 9 lives.

I think the genuine contrition you’ve shown has played a big role in the response here and most likely with the case.

Happy it’s worked out fine for you !
