Got my first in my 55 Chevy wagon headed down I-77, just the other side of Rock Hill, SC. Officer was nice enough to only give me a ticket for 5 over even though I was going around 65 in a 55 zone because I swore up and down I was in a 65 zone. Unfortunately the 65 zone didn"t start for another mile.......Fortunately he just caught me coasting as I had been running over 110 and had backed off and hadn"t had my foot on the gas pedal for a mile, or more, when I passed him.
Funny thing about the whole incident was that in all of my bi-weekend trips home from Charleston nobody ever spoke of me getting a ticket until that weekend. Thing is that weekend everyone I knew warned me about not getting one....so I did.....LOL
The next time everyone was on me to "be careful and not have a wreck"....that weekend I was towing my "55 back to VA and, long story short, my new truck ended up on it"s side, and my car on it"s top (pile of concrete in the road in a hard curve caused car tires to turn in the wrong direction). From that point on the only advice I will accept, to this day, about having a wreck, is "Remember, rubber side down, shiny side up..." Seems to have worked so far....not saying no wrecks since, just all of them caused by someone else.
