I've been stopped for speeding only once, over 30 years ago. My last ticket was two years ago for passing the yellow line improperly or something like that. Also two years ago I was stopped for making an illegal left turn but they let me go with a warning.
However - I've been in three accidents and all were my fault. Thank God they were fender-benders!
And why did I just divulge my complete driving record....

4 speeding tickets (none in the last 15 years - guys usually get them every time, unlike gals). The only time I didn't get a ticket for speeding when I was speeding was when I was in my Postal uniform on my way to work and the Highway Patrolman (in California) let me off the hook because my office had called me in on my day off and I was just being a little bit overly zealous following the dictate that "the mail must go thru".
But if you'd ask how many times I SHOULD have been stopped, the answer is: in the first half of my career 1000 times, but lately I've learned to be a little slower.

I don't remember the exact number. My first ticket was when I was 18 then I didn't get any for a long time even though I got pulled over a lot. Then in my late 30's I got more tickets, including one on Mother's Day. For my last ticket I went to court to fight and pleaded not guilty so had a trial date set and when I went back for that the cop didn't show up so the ticket was dropped.

I sort of go in spurts. Have been driving for 37 years and no accidents (well I minor rear ender) I don't count that cause the guy ahead was an idiot. lol
I manage to go without tickets for usually about 5 years or so, then it's bang, bang bang. Always come in 3's. Seems to work like clockwork. No huge speeding over the limit but always enough to be in the wrong place at the wrong time....lol
I have been a great support to the local police departments.

Last time I was stopped was November 1, 2004. It was November and yet it was 80 degrees!! I mean come on......NOVEMBER!! So I had the top down and my kids in the back and we decided to take a long way home driving back roads through the country with the sun on our faces and the wind in our hair. ANdddddddd the blue flashing light on our tail. *sigh*
He said he totally sympathized......but gave me the ticket anyway. I think I've been stopped twice before that. Never major speeding......but enough so that the dear dear officer could reach his quota for the month. *sigh*
Now....I soooooo wanna hear how you got out of that 8th ticket. *grin*

Three times for speeding, three tickets...though none in two years.
The last ticket was given the night I got engaged. I showed the officer my ring and the flowers I got, but he didn't cut me any slack.
