You know it costs money to gas, maintain, insure, and/or rent a car right?
Fact of the matter is you were speeding before they adjusted the sign, it is your responsibility as a driver to obey all posted signage, and if you cannot abide by the rules of the road as well as be capable of reading and responding to signage I do not believe you should be allowed to drive because you are a risk to everyone around you.
You deserved that ticket, and I wish they had suspended your license until you were retested.
LOL, a suspended licence for going 7 kms over the regular speed limit. Yeah, you're a rational person alright, and I should take any argument you have seriously. Ok.
And you know that you don't have to gas, maintain, insure or rent a car that you borrow from a friend of family member, right?
Going 7 over the regular limit does not make me a danger to society you absolute lunatic, and it is the responsibility of the government to make sure that signage is CLEAR and READABLE to people on the road.
Have a nice day.
You were going 17 over the posted limit, as per your story, and weren't aware enough to know about it.
You shouldn't have a license.
Take care.
I was going 7 over the limit as per my story, a great big 50km/h hour sign where 40 km/h was only enforced certain hours of the day, certain days of the week, certain months of the year, all of which I was expected to read within literal seconds, and didn't slow down enough in time.
Any traffic enforcement officer would literally laugh in your face if you told them I shouldn't have a license. Grow a brain. This will be my last post. Jesus Christ you are such a fucking moron.
57-50=17? Did you attend school in America, or something? ChatGPT spit that answer out for you?
The speed limit was 40, as per the story.
It is really funny to me that you insult my level of education while failing at solving a word problem though, so thank you for that.
Reading comprehension ain't your strong suit, eh bud?
Thanks for another one. Keep it going DJ Khaled.
I'm not even OP. You're something, kiddo.
I know you aren't. Yet you are still dying ignorantly on this hill. Again, thanks for the laugh sweetums. I won't waste further time with you, have a good one snookiepoo.
