First ticket in my Viper, it\'s all MadMan\'s fault....
Motor City Madman and I cruise up thru Michigan and hit Grand Bend, a wild little seaside community where the population increases tenfold on long weekends with thousands of nubile chicaquitas walking the streets with next to nothing on, not sure what draws me to the area. Good food I think.....
Cruise all day, snapshots, a few rides (with one junior hottie we met at the Dragstrip that was a lucky 16, ouch, bad Ryan), hit the strip several times with no problem with the cops.
We were on the hit list from the getgo on the radio from the cops however, we crested a hill into a small town and was maybe 15 MPH over max, and the cop did a double take at two Blue Vipers whistling thru the small town on the way there. Magically, we passed 2 or 3 more cops in the next upcoming 1/2 hour, and toned down the speed a bit. Which is next to impossible to do when travelling with other Vipers I find.
Last pass at the strip in the evening, my idea, not Seans, and an elderly cop waddles out and lets Sean pass, and pulls me over in front of the entire strip and gives me the front plate lecture. I yell to Sean on the 2 way to wait up for me somewhere as I'll be a while. His response at full pop on the 2 way in front of the cop, "Got some hotties to tend to or what?"- to that effect. Grey haired elder not impressed, I believe the quote following Sean's outburst of insanity was "Your getting a ticket for no plate." Cool, my first ticket in the GTS, giving my recent high speed of 280KPH (175MPH ish) a few weeks ago, this no point transaction was rather enjoyable!!
Whatever, the decision to run 2 plates is so far above his entry-level position, enforce what comes down the food chain, do what ya gotta do. As he goes into his building (they pull you over right in front of their 'headquarters'), a swarm of people attack the GTS as the pass door was open as I found my papers, I'm over talking to a younger cop that I am blocking to get out on the strip. He loves the car, we talk like normal human beings minus the attitude. The old fella tugs on his trousers, ***** in his gut and goes to the drivers side of my car. I'm 20 feet over at the other cops car, with at least 15 people around the car.
I thought this would be a good time to show the cop how getting along with people is all about. A pack of three teenage guys are ogling the GTS as I walk over to the drivers side to receive my ticket, and I offer a ride to the guy that was in awe of the car.
He's trembling he's so excited, he gets in, I part the sea to get to my side, hope in and grab the ticket as an afterthought, started the car while he was still talking about something, and pulled away.
Within 2 minutes of getting my ticket I met Sean at a parking lot, another car load of admirers pull in the lot and we both do some sweet tandem burnouts out of the parking lot. I take my passenger who is near speechless to the corner and let him out, my good deed for the day instead of chasing skirts, kinda felt good.....
In summary, what's the fine in your area for no front plate, and if you get the ticket once is that a good for the day pass or if you return the attitude given can the ticket be issues multiple times in the same calendar day, kinda like the gift that keeps on giving?
I refuse to drill holes in my $15,000 Cdn fascia, and zip ties, Elmers Glue, and suction cups are not for me!
drug wars, terrorism, child abuse, although hard to fight I feel our resources should be better directed.
