I just uploaded some pics to my gallery. Take a look at let me know if I look like a bad person. Do I deserve tickets? Do I deserve to get hit by bad drivers?

Hope not. Where's the halo smiley when you need it? *insert here*

Lately I got a few tickets and got hit by a few people. I wish having a cool car was easier!!




Thanks for lookin

 

Well, do you drive with your helmet and harnesses on? No, of course you dont look like a bad person. Sorry to hear about your troubles. If it makes you feel any better, I'm liking your glossy black wheel arches and wheels.

 

You probably didn't deserved to be hit, but you probably deserved the tickets. "Love to Redline" in 1st Gear and 2nd Gear?

 

Now if you had the "arrest me red" MINI you might not have gotten hit. But cool cars always attract attention good and bad, but I thought the DS had faded to a "normal car"; just yankin your chain. I think there was likely far more than looks for you misfortune.

BTW: Whats wrong with wearing my helmet when I drive, it is DOT approved?

 

Ironically enough, if you drive your car on the street while wearing a helmet you can get ticketed. A helmet is considered to impair your vision.

On the other hand in many states if you ride a motorcycle without wearing a helmet you'll get ticketed and all the arguments in the world about impaired vision won't get you off.

It's a funny old world.

 

The tickets are for the ones without DOT approval, SA has different minimums about vision imparement but M and DOT approved helmets are the legal for the road, and then if you have an SA with the DOT and M compliance you should be ok, at least that how its been explained to me.

 

Off the subject, but you get a vote for best license plate.

Oh yeah, the car looks nice too

 

haha thanks. took me a whole evening to think of it. going to apply a red stripe from cooper flags soon, to complete the look.

mom think i get the tickets BECAUSE of the license plate. doh

 

I have seen you!

Great look with the black wheels, and I like the license plate too.

I'm with your Mom on this one--the license plate identifies you as a person who likes taking your car's performance to the limit--of course you are a ticket magnet!

 

I love your license plate, but it's up there with the "Bad cop, no donut" bumper sticker on the list of things I would not put on my own car to attract unwanted attention from the friendly LEOs.
