gotten a ticket while driving? No, the officer usually pulled me over first! (Okay, sorry...couldn't resist!) Yes, I have gotten some tickets. No, I have never tried to talk them out of one, but there have been a couple of times when they let me go with just a warning.
One of the police officers I used to work with at the bank told me one time that he was "negotiable" about almost any ticket unless you were speeding in a school zone. He said the only way you could talk him out of it then was if you were on your way to the hospital to deliver a baby or you were having a heart attack!
Item with a motor? new car I suppose!

Bonus Question:

Have you every tried talking your way out of getting a ticket ? Several. Usually I'm asked where I've been, so we chat... The one ticket I did get was in Massachusett's. If you live in the North East that's enough said.
Did it work ? Yes, three times!

The "Motor Fairy" (brother-in-law to the floor fairy) is going to stop by your house, what item with a motor would you like him to drop off ? I need a new riding lawnmower, but that's no fun. So, I think I'll say an airplane. I've always wanted my pilot's license.

Bonus Question:
Have you ever gotten a ticket while driving ? LOL.. Ughh.. yeah I have, but it was tough for the police officer to hand me the ticket, and for me to sign it, while I was going 90 MPH... - Sorry Karla, I couldn't resist.. I've had a few tickets, mostly speeding, and two for running stop signs. I haven't gotten any tickets in almost 7 years, but I remember one time I got 2 speeding tickets on the same day, and within one hour of each! That was in September of 1982.
