Last year when I had my bike, got stopped doing 90 in a 55. Reduced to 75 in a 65: $200 + 2 pts.

About 5 months ago I got pulled over doing 75 in a 65 in Cornwall NY. Could not go to court (2 hours away) to defend myself and pleaded guilty: $250 + 3 pts.

3 months ago I got pulled over for going 73 in a 55 (my spedometer said I was going just over 65). My bro called in a favor and the cop said he'd help me out... He didn't... : $250 fine + 2 pts.

Got a letter a few weeks later from the state of NY saying that I now have to pay a $300 driver responsibility fee for getting 6 points on my license and an additional $75 for each point over 6: $375

Today I went to my last court session for getting pulled over and the cop gave me 3 tickets at once. The noisy exhaust ticket was thrown out, the registration ticket was thrown out and the 55 in a 30 was reduced to a parking violation: $150

Total over 6 months: $1,125 + 7 points.
