Well like the topic says, lost my licens for 6 Fu***** months!! Impossible to drive within the speedlimits and I took it to the edge. F the swedish police and F the swedish system! I cant be the first i guess?

Drive safe!

thats too bad, how many tickets did it take for them to pull your license?

propain

I lost my license 3 times. 2 times suspended 3rd time revoked. I retook my road test when I was 22 I think.. maybe 23...


Ahh those were the days... I cant drive!!... 55!!

Was your C63 impounded?

sikvald

One time incident, just drove to damn fast

sikvald

No, I was able to drive home. You have 48 hours to drive in sweden when you loose the licens for speeding. I used my time well

that sucks swedish meatballs.

Sorry to hear. I'm curious how severe the one time infraction needs to be to lose your license in Sweden. 20+ mph over the speed limit? 50+ mph over? etc.

sikvald

+31 km/h on a normal road, then its 3 month suspension, i did 80 km/h over and six month was the result. How is it in the U.S? Guess its different rules in different states tho.

Welcome to the Club

I got 2 tickets and got suspended for 3 months

lol

Wow! That's not much room to play at all. You're right that it varies from state to state. I got a ticket for 36 mph over last year in South Florida and when all was said and done, I had to pay court costs and attorney's fees (but got no points on my license). Granted when you start hitting 25-30+ mph over in most states, I believe the police officer has the option of arresting you on the spot...

I heard your speeding fine is proportional to your income in sweden.

a friend of mine (the guy that got me addicted to AMG crack) just got a ticket for 85 mph in a 55 zone in VA. The trooper said he was giving him a break, and from what my friend said (had been doing 90 - 95), he did.

The trooper also said that 90+ is automatic jail time in virginia, with 1 day per mph over 90. I don't know how true that is, but I do know virginia is *not* the place for excessive speed.

As fas as I know in California double over the speed limit and or 100mph is reckless driving and the cop can arrest you on the spot.

The worst i ever did was 92 in a 45 in my Imola Red m3 the cop cut me a brake of 62 in 45

No everything you have said is true, I found out the hard way. Lol 103 in a 65 I know stupid . But VA does not take kindly to speeders or racers, and in return I had the book thrown at me. Lost my license for 1 yr and some days in jail. Take it from me some things just aint worth the trouble.

50km/h+ here in ontario canada and they impound your car.. If you're driving a c63.. you'll always find yourself over the 50km/hr mark since most cars travel at 120 on the hwys..

JM

thank god its not like that in vancouver

patrickkc

yea it sucks.. its a new street racing law implemented last year.. I think they consider you street racing even if you're just driving 50km + by yourself
