Well..this week so far has been just great.. Monday morning came out to my car in the parking lot with both drivers side tires flatter than a board. Found the knife marks, they'd been slashed. So i didnt go to school because I'd already mixed the bus. Got my car on stands and called up a friend who got me tires at cost. All they had that fit my car were some snows so i took those...110 dollars..So i have no money for the week as of yesterday. Then on my way home from work tonight i get pulled over for " Failure to use care when Starting". What happened was i pulled out and I'm not used to how they handle because they are narrower than my old tires which never realy broke loose they just went. But anyhow, where I stopped was either sand or snow because my town does horrible at plowing so my tires spun and when the caught dry pavement they chirped a few times and then i took off. I got to the lights, turned left and went on then i saw a cop blow around they guy behind me and got right on my *** so i pulled over.. Its only a 20 dollar fine so im not complaining about that, I just hope it doesn't effect my insurance.

They say bad luck comes in 3's so i don't want to know what in store for tomorrow.

Wow that sucks! Atleast you knew someone who could get you tires, and the fine wasn't too bad. Maybe it's just your week, next week will be better. :)

supposably around here if you send in $10 more than the ticket is, they send you a check back and as long as you dont cash it, they dont take anything off your lisence. idk if it works though. i heard my friends brothers done it a few times. im in PA by the way.

I got a ticket for "display of horsepower". They said it encompases racing, exhibition of speed, wreckless driving, and laying drag. They are just making up new stuff constantly around here.
