Who cares, just stop speeding and you wont get anymore tickets:D . I told you that when you got the last one. Didn't your parents ever tell you to do as I say and not as I do.

Hmm...stop speeding...easier said than done. OR I could just invest in a detector and speed carelessly, like you.

Oh yeah, actually my parents did say that to me...but they also told me not to have a boyfriend, and did I listen then?

Think of it like this...

 

Each ticket carries a certain weight (points). It's not that the point value for the ticket goes away but instead after 2 years, points for previous tickets are no longer added into the formula to determine your count.

Right, so this is why I was confused when he said to me, "this adds up to 10 points, one more ticket of any kind and you are losing your license."

Here's why:

#1 - Feb. 2006, 79 in 65, 2pts

#2 - Feb. 2007, 79 in 65, 2pts

(Sept. 2007 I turned 18)

#3 - July 2008, 68 in 35, 4pts

#4 - Aug. 2008, 80 in 65, 2pts

So shouldn't the first one not be counted in my formula as of right now?

6 months first 12 points, 1 year second 12 points. Don't ask me how I know :whistle:

He may have been trying to scare me, but he definitely said "up to 2 years." Either way...I plan on being extra careful. It helps that I probably won't have a car on campus so there won't be much driving for me...

Points are a way for entities to track how defiant or reliable you are. The tickets on your record never go away; your records are permanent. When it is necessary to use your driving record, ie insurance, jobs, etc., the company will only search for records during a given time frame. Most check your driving record from 3 years back to present. That is their inquiry...it doesn't mean your record beyond that somehow disappeared.

 

The gooberment will use points to establish their will. If you get some many points in such a time frame, they will take a given action. I don't know how many you get before Ohio takes your license.

I see what you are saying. I understand that the tickets never disappear, but two years after the date of each offense the points do? I'm just trying to get everything strait in my head...there's so many rules and stipulations I'm way lost.

Thanks for all the input everyone.

My first one was in Feb. of 06 so it should have dropped off in Feb. of 08...maybe the man just couldn't count, who knows.

And as for my insurance, it was already rather high...but my parents pay for it so I can focus on paying for school...so I'm hoping to sneak off to college before they realize it has gone through the roof.

I'm workin on my brother about this...he's 15 and trying to save up for a 360, but at the moment he doesn't have enough money for any games...

I will let you know tonight or tomorrow for sure, but don't wait around if you get another buyer.

Thanks,

Erin

Yeah Shanton your methods of getting up on the wakeboard were interesting none the less, but deffinatly got the job done. I didn't do so well today, but I am going to use my earlier events to blame for me being so shitty. I am most certainly not feeling very top notch at this moment. Once I got in the truck to drive home and I started to relax, all hell broke loose on my back.

 

Me and the bitch were talking tonight about maybe getting some of us together next week or so and going out on the lake at her place to just go wakeboarding and tubing all day.

I'm not your bitch. :asshole: I was nothing but nice to you last night while you were limping around complaining about all your injuries.

So I got a ticket today on I-70 for going 80. The cop mentioned that this ticket adds up to 10 points...but the only way this is accurate is if the points that I got from the two tickets when I was under 18 are still on my license. Do the points get cleared at 18? I thought at first they did but now I'm thinking they must not...

help?

Oh, also, is it common knowledge that if you are driving on the freeway and you see a cop (obviously after he saw you) actually walk ONTO the freeway and point threateningly(sp?) at you two or three times that you are supposed to immediately swerve through 3 lanes of road and screech to a stop as soon as you see the cop doing this? Because I calmly got to the right lane (using turn signals appropriately of course...) and pulled onto the shoulder, and the guy told me I could have been arrested for not pulling over after he "signaled me to do so."

No nut to butt for me.

that's funny...because you had no problem whatsoever going nut to butt last weekend when we were tubing:

We don't have to go out on a boat to fish there. I have some friends that live on the water or we can go to the dam/spillway. Erin lives on the water too doesn't she?

yep i do, but i don't usually go at my house bc our shoreline is rocky/sandy and the best you can catch is bluegill next door under my neighbor's dock. across the lake from me though is a quiet little inlet thats usually pretty dependable around dusk. theres a big grassy area so I sometimes just go by myself and take the dog along...

He probably hasn't had time to deal with it. My clean laundry has been sitting on my futon for 3 weeks now because I haven't had time. Damn Erin, quit bustin his balls in front of his friends. lol

He has. I asked him nicely numerous times...and now this is what its come down to...posting about his laundry on CR...it's sad really, you should probably feel bad for him.

Liz isn't that high maintinance..........

 

Hows it goin Erin? Welcome

 

Now I kinda have to be careful what I say about some people from around here

thanks, and thanks for being on my side about Liz, lol. Who cares, anyways?

and don't worry about censoring yourself...I honestly don't talk to anyone from London besides the guys I go boating with (and Liz of course)...and they are cool.

Lol... You know I used to always get bitched at about the amount of time I spent on CR and interupting quality time, but she goes and signs up and its like she can't get enough of it. Even I can't stay on CR for four hours at a time.

oh Chris, you are such a comedian... I already told you that you were right...and I know how much you love hearing that so why can't you just take your wins and drop it already?! Besides, you can't even get your story right...it wasnt about quality time (still isn't...), it's about all that laundry that I sorted so nicely for you that is STILL sitting on your pool table from THREE WEEKS ago because you "haven't had time to deal with" hmm...

You know it is real disapointing when your significant other takes all of your privileges away, first it's the time with your friends, before you know it your not allowed to whack it anymore, but I never thought my CR time would be invaded. This just seems like something I should have rights to or something. I feel like less of a man.

OKAY. :bs: and here's why: we have discussed the time with friends issue...it translates into your time-management issue. Secondly, nobody said aaanything about whacking it...acutally, I believe when I talked to you last you told me you were going to shower and I said, "Have FUN in the shower." and I meant it. Thirdly, its not like we share an account, and we don't even look at the same threads because half the stuff you look at I don't even understand! Oh, and btw YOU found ME, I didnt go searching for you. So there.

Scalpers are always around the day of, but depending on the hype of the particular game...and how desperately you want to go...sometimes they are stingy just to see what you are willing to pay. Students, however, are much more dependable. Craigslist is probably good (never used it), but if you have a facebook, go to the marketplace section bc a lot of students list on there and get desperate at the last minute--i.e. night before...morning of--and sell for low prices just to make some fast cash.

I would help you out personally, but I ordered my student season tix back in the spring and I'm not letting go of them for anything.

it's the memory foam stuff... hell, I'd sleep on it!

I agree completely. Our 8 yr old black lab, Buddy, just got a nice new bed and it has the memory foam stuff...i actually laid down on it and i have to say it's pretty damn comfortable. But then again, labs are prone to hip problems so it is a smart move as an owner.

As for the jumping, if the dog is already 7 years into a habit, i'd say its possible but not probable that you will break the habit by training...or mouse traps...or whatever. Your best bet would probably be investing in a simple crate to keep her in when you are not home. Throw a few toys in there...maybe a treat or two...make it her own. Don't use it as a punishment, just try to make it a new habit for her to get in whenever everyone is out of the house. Good luck!

You know I was being sarcastic when I told you to join if you wanted to read my posts.

 

Oh and everyone is welcome to leghump as much as they feel needed, I give you permision:D

I figured about the sarcasm part...but I thought about it and you are right, why should I need to look over your shoulder if I want to know what's going on? I'll just look myself.
