Pics of your MINI Getting Busted!

Hey everyone makes a mistake. Sometimes it gets caught on film. Toll cams, speed cams, parking violations, Lets see your unwanted, free action shots you've gotten in the mail!
--
I'll start: I had just got a new toll road trasponder in the mail, and put the wrong one in my car when i went out. Luckily no ticket since my plate was reg'd to the car, so just a "hey, check your thingie!" email with photo :

That's what most guys fear coming off the hill at the dragon, that little parking lot at the bottom turns into the slow down area.

It was the start of the summer enhanced enforcement in the Malibu hills area . This was at a very popular spot on mulhulland dive called the snake . I am a member of the CHP 11-99 organization so I was not too concerned personally but they were writing a lot of tickets , mostly mechanical violations .

Not me, but one of our club members a couple of years ago...leaving MOTD, on the TN side. It was his buddy who was driving when they were stopped. The patrolman gave his permission to snap the pic as a keepsake.

I got my Dragon trip ticket in TN and it was much cheaper and easier to deal with than my buddies that got theirs in NC. $123.75 vs ~$350

Haha, yes. I thought it best I didn't tell the trooper I had not even gotten started speeding that day. Had to pay some "stupid tax" for my actions.
