What's your pulled over / ticketed ratio thus far?
I've only had mine for a little less than a month, but in NY without a front license plate and, well - a habit of slightly exceeding the posted speed limit from time to time, I'm sure I'll be introduced to a blue clad public servant any time now.
For the rest of you, please share your encounter(s) with the men and women in blue and the outcome - ticket? Warning? Or have you had to ask them to stop gawking at the car already; either write me a damn ticket or let me go - I'm late for dinner!

In less than 3,000 miles accumulated two speeding tickets and one warning for no front plate. Prior to this car I had been pulled over a few times but never ticketed for speeding. It attracts attention, that's for sure.

got pulled over the first day i owned it. first few hours actually. no front plate. went back to the dealer the next day and had it installed. :/ too old and too cranky to deal with being pulled over for such trivialities; there are better things to be pulled over for! besides, this s/o paint attracts a lot of attention so i try not to pour lemon in the wound of law enforcement.

Never got a ticket in my M3 or M4, but I got two driving my wife's SUV. Maybe the V1 had something to do with it.

Almost 4k on my M4 and 0 tickets despite many frequent trips between NYC and DC and almost every performance car on I-95 wanting to race me (stingray, 911, cayman, mustang, challenger, jag and counting...).

Only 1 ticket so far....was doing 90 in a 70 but he dropped it down to 80 in a 70 to help me out because he told be "Im sure you dont even notice you're speeding in that thing"..i told him he had no idea....Got one warning as well..
Oddly enough i got my biggest one in 2014 in my other half's X4 for doing 22 over. Need a V1 in that car as well. |

5k miles..1 red light ticket, 1 revoked epass for excessive speed through tolls, 1 warning for 5% tint which I found to be strange because anytime I am pulled over, I get a ticket. I don't have tits or some sort of clever charm in those moments.

ED and a cross country drive from the PC (with Munich front plate on the entire way back) yielded zero tickets (2k mi). You should add a poll to the thread!

I also don't have that charm so maybe we should always have a girl with big Tits in the car with us. That should help! Lol

Yeah, this thread was a bad idea. Like a reverse karma bitch-slap just waiting to happen. Apologies to anyone else who has a superstitious bone in his/her body.

None. Whenever I'm on the highway after I reach highway speed I just set my cruise control at 70mph.

6500 miles and pulled over once for crossing a double yellow line but got a warning. I'm also running no front plate and tints and *knock on wood* haven't been even pulled over for it yet alone given a ticket. Maybe the cops here are more lenient than where you guys are getting tickets?

6 months no tickets, no warning, no attention in my AW M3
Beltronics GX65 with GPS of redlight and speed camaras helps., I think people just thinks its another BMW, no big deal I guess. |

My drivers license privileges have been revealed since 2007 Im owned a 997 GT3 at the time (brand new) and that car made me do evil things. I got 7 speeding tickets in one week. The last was 173 in a 35.
I now am very close to being able to drive again legally. With the mods i have planned I should be back in trouble, this time over 200 mph
