Annual Inspection Cost

A couple of years later I sold it! Didn't pass that info on to the new owner. I still to this day don't know who she was referring to, her boyfriend, me, or just men in general. The car was a lot of fun and could really take corners fast enough to get the excitment level up. Sold it soon after I got two speeding tickets on the way home from work in one evening. It was constantly being challenged on the freeways, and that evening a car was doing that and finally gunned it and sped away at over 100 mph and the cop got me. He threatened to throw me in jail when I started arguing that it was the other guy, I was in the vette, so I got the ticket, which was the second in less than 30 minutes.

Wise cop. Probably saw that you were unaccustomed to that much speed and figured you couldn't handle it.N1478D wrote:..that evening a car was doing that and (I) finally gunned it and sped away at over 100 mph and the cop got me.
