man, that sucks. i got a ticket for street racing right at the onramp to the 101s in oxnard. the ticket was 500, and the insurance sky rocketed. i pay 6 monthes at a time and when it was time to renew it went from like 1500 to 10,000 bucks for 6 monthes. i just went to progressive and got 772 for 6 monthes. damn.

772 for 6 months is not to bad, try playing near 250.00 a month :P

They are getting tough on street racing over here. The cop probably suspended his license on the spot, that's why he didn't understand it. I have heard of guys having to pay $2500.00 to $3000.00 in fines and losing their license for 6 months.

man these stories scare the hell out of me :( . the evo is such a fun little car and sometimes its hard not to hit the gas late at night in one of those corners thats just calling your name. i think its time to buy a second car.

I second that.

the DC area is noturious for tickets...I got caught up in one of a commuter lane sting when I came out of Ronald Reagan going up to DC. I think its Highway (been a while so I am not sure), but basicly you exit the airport to the 1 directly into a commuter lane. Its only a commuter lane during certain hours & during those hours it is IMPOSSIBLE to get over. The traffic is AtoB is all lanes. So the cops wait for dumb people in rentals to come down a few blocks and then wave you over into a parking lot and give you a ticket. Gotta love it...

I'm paying $287 pewr month for 2 cars full coverage. That's pretty steep considering you're 60; is the other car a 996?

Two brand new $30k cars, full coverage.

[Chris in SD]

My 2005.5 S4 is $2000/year... (that includes my "at fault" :roll: accident)

[*chris*]

dont ya love that sh1t chris? im kinda in the same boat too. seems like insurance companies only see in black&white. if there wasnt another car invovled that was at fault, its all on you. they dont seem to understand there are things out of our control. :roll:

im paying 1100 every 6months. with 'at-fault' accident and a boating violation. :P

[Chris in SD]

It wasn't the insurance company's fault. You gotta love when the police won't respond to a hit and run because they think you're lying...

Two brand new $30k cars, full coverage. oops...he probably meant 49 :D I pay 840 every 6 months; full coverage on 1 evo w/ 100 dollar deductible for both collision and comp.

[*chris*]

i realize it wasnt the ins. companys fault. im just sayin, they dont seem to understand that somethings are not OUR fault.

but you are seemingly a girl. they always pay less............


also where will the insurance company be when you total your car? by your side or long gone.......sometimes theres a reason why they charge so little

and sure they tell you full coverage, just like mitsu told all of us that we have a 10yr/100k mile warranty ;)

[Racing Chick]

The insurance company will be there. I'm sure my insurance is lower because I'm a girl, but mostly because my husband is 60 and a school teacher.

That’s why I have always hated cops, not because I got tickets but because they never listen to you, have a superior attitude and hassle you do to the car you drive or the way you look.

[Evo8supercar]

Got total of 4 tickets this year 3 of those over 100-160 MPH The only good thing all cops right me for under 100 MPH Letting me go, still I am hoping the cops will not show up for the trial.

Also I have AAA Insuranse and I only paid $1200 a year with my bad record.
