Major burnout on city street + cops = bad?

Well I decided to burn the **** outta my C63 last night in front of a club with 200+ people (it was epic).

Uknowest to me at the time there was a city cop car parked down the street, and I got railed pretty bad from them (to the point where they took my keys and threatened they were towing the car).

Anyway long story short they let me go with two tickets, one stupid normal unsafe lane change traffic violation ( lol? guess they gave me this because I drifted into another lane while burning out haha).

The other one is a weird city ordinance violation which I have never seen before. States on there that I squealed my tires causing smoke in front of a crowd, and on the bottom it says I will get a warrent for my arrest if I dont show up to court in two days.

Should I be worried? Ive never had a ticket then a court date two days later and talk about arrest warrents.

FYI I got the ticket in poughkispee new york in case anyone has some sort of experience with these.

Well, I guess subtlety isn't exactly your strongsuit.

Frankly, that would have been really embarrassing if all those people were watching when you got pulled over. It's one of those things where if you got away with it, it could have come off kinda cool, but when you get popped, it just looks really baaad.

Odds of that actually having occurred:

1 in 10 billion

I'm saying there's a chance, though!

so im trying to imagine the scene here with this one, and the fact that you got 2 citations that didnt include a DUI is blowing my mind.

Back in the day when I clubbed! seeing a cop car around every happening place late night was the norm. Stupid things had to wait a couple of blocks.

Some jurisdictions call it, "Exhibition of Speed." Must have been embarassing......and to post it here.

Yeah man.. that is risky business right there!! Burnout haven't been my particular thing ever although I think they look cool. One of the main reasons why I don't do it is because in a situation like yours someone will grab their Iphone and film it and put it on youtube or a car forum and next thing you know is that is being investigated by the law enforcement online.

Another negative aspect is the cost of the tires. Simply too expensive.

Does seem quite bad, with the court and 200 witnesses...
Hope it turns out well, and one would hope that you maybe learned something out of this..

I used to do that when i was 18-19 when I owned my Supra Turbo, I wouldn't even think about it now. Way to embarrassing, and takes away the class of the car, and in front of a club where people are drinking - there will always be cops nearby.

Be safe and good luck, likely you will only get a slap on the wrist supervision and a fine.

In California it's called "exhibition of speed" and it worth 2 points on your license. Ask for a jury trial (if you still can in your state), get a delay in the trial and get a lawyer.

Mess up on Market St.

Where else are the officers going to be lurking, looking for low risk easy gets?

Ah the exuberance of youth!

Was it around Market St.?
