RE: 5 tickets in 2 days
man that reallysucks! my last 2 tickets... 1 coming out of town going down hill in the mtns, I speed up leaving the town limits and hit the hill, noticed I was at 65~68 in a 55 zone and started hitting the brakes. Just then a copper comes around the corner and radar's me. he even commented that he noticed I was on the brakes coming down the hill... I guess he had to meet a quota that day [&:]. the other one I deserved... hit a red light thru a left turn lane... crossed the line right when the light went red, copper was there watching for it.

No such thing as a quota - they can write as many tickets as they want, or don't want. Trust me, 95% of cops hate writing tickets, it's just part of the job. Also, remember, attitude is everything, and being polite goes a long way.

Make sure you take care of all including the insurance one. Depending on where you are, even fix it tickets like that can turn into arrest warrants and a trip to jail.
Due to a mistake in the warrant issuer's typing (they mistyped my liscense # in the warrant by one digit) I went 4 years without knowing I had a warrant on me. I've renewed my liscense 2x (once was getting my class A CDL) with no problems. However, while trying to get onto the local air force base for a job the other day the warrant popped when they ran a background check and I got a nice ride in a cop car to the Omaha jail for a couple hour stay until I posted bond...
All over an expired insurance card fix it ticket. I **** you not.

RE: 5 tickets in 2 days
i've had several in the first 5 years of driving, but nowhere near 5tickets in two days. the last one i received was just under 5 years ago for a seatbelt violation, and is the only one currently on my driving record.
