so i got 2 tickets today...
ok i took my dads friends car to work today (99-04) stang.. long story short.. my dads car was with the other guy.. and on my way home i was drivin along and at the light i took off a little hard and the wheels spun.. and about 5 seconds later a cop came runnin outta the first house (rutherford and madoc) and pulled me over.
It was him and another cop nice guys i can say.. he said u were just carelessly drivin there.. im not lying here.. but that stang was fallin apart (and yes all 4 tires were at the wear bars). So he asked for the usual i gave him my license and i was lookin for the ownership/ insurance.. once i found it handded it over and he said it was expired. i told him this isnt my car and its the first time i have ever drivin it.. so he said ok. ill be back. So he started chating away with his other cop friend in another car. i waited about 15 mins or so until they came back out. first they gave me a scare that i could have gotten a careless drivin ticket for like 3gs and 6 points i believed he said.. but hes like ill be nice to u because you were being honest (which is cool). the first cop gave me a ticket for unessary noise (for the 5 seconds ... ) thats 110 and the other ticket was not valid insurance for 60 bucks ... i plan to pay for both of them but.. the cop said i could take the insurance to court and show them my insurance card. In my opinion i should make the owner of the car pay for that. What should i do.. i know im paying for the first 1 (unessary noise) since it was technically i caused that but the tires were crap and for the other ticket should i make the owner pay. And i dont have time to go to court. Or should i just pay, cuz i work about 50-60 hrs a week and work is pretty tight right now.
i need some input from some ppl
and yes i kno im gonna get bashed. but thats ok

5 seconds is kinda long dude...count it out with me, 1 mississippi, 2 mississippi, 3 mississippi, 4 mississippi, 5 mississippi....guess thats justified, I got the same ticket for invalid insurance card saturday night driving a car that wasnt mine but I guess its up us (the person going to operate the vehicle) to ensure all proper paperwork is present. Then again, you would hope for the cop to give u a break
ohwell, such is life...175bucks outta my pocket

I find this wierd, i got pulled over last week going west on steeles just passed pine valley under the bridge and the cop showed me the radar and i did 87 on a 60 zone. Well i give him my insurance and ownership with my license. There are two cars in front of me that were pulled over also. About 15-20mins later, the cop hands out tickets to the two cars and when he gets to me, he gives all my stuff back and actually said " i wont give you a ticket but im giving you a warning, please dont drive fast again". Now i still wonder why ddnt he give me a ticket? Im glad i ddnt receive one but it bothers me why he ddnt. Any guesses?

i just got my dad to call the owner of the other car.. but he isnt picking up.. my dad said i should pay the noise ticket becuase it is my fault (which it is and i dont mind) but the other ticket i wont pay because my dad is like we gave him a "legal car" mean while we got an unsafe vehicle "illegal" ill give u guys a heads up when the guy picks up his phone. Plus i wont have time to go to court. and about gettin the insurance/ownership... i dont think that car can get a legal insurance slip w/o a safety (i could be wrong) .. and there no way that thing will pass w/o repairs. On a side note i was gonna show the cop my dealer insurance but i rather not risk that either because they could say you are ripping a customer car.
