Need help with research paper

[Domesticated]

im writing a research paper on stereo types of so called street racers and i need some data. post up your age, and a list of driving related tickets you have and about the year you got them. or just your name and ill look them up personally but i may find more than you want me too lol. and you probably dont want your full name and dob on the web, idk? but just a list would do the best. im just copying and pasting this to different forums so if you could include your car and the highlight mods on it that will also help a little. such as engine swaps, boost, nitrous, body kits, you get it. this is so i can get an idea of how you tune your car and the personality you want your car to have. also i would need how you use your car, for shows, just daily driving, tracking, road or drag. thankyou!

p.s. try not to clutter this with chat, i will be using it as a data reference and i need the data ASAP!!!

[Domesticated]

actually i dont want to look you up, just an age and a list. its kinda like a survey. i will be interviewing police officers also and getting some data from the court house for local stuff.

93 cb7 ex
18
speeding 18 over = 2 points 9/08
unsafe lane change = accident = dropped to to fast for conditions 8/09
drivers point reduction class 8/09
blue headlights ticket 2/10

f22a6 I/H/E slammed to the ground tint

[Domesticated]

tickets per year for tuners is .43 and the mid 75% is .36. for my random selected group of civilians its was .35 and the 75% was .24. so that means we get tickets 16% more often then regular people, and minus the extremes it comes out to 33% more often. so that makes more sense. lets see if i can figure out a way to use this productively and honestly. still havent got into too much but im still workin on it. on the plus side those really arent that big of percentages. so if a normalperson gets 8 tickets in their lifetime, that just means well have 9 to 11 which isnt much of a difference

I drive for a living, so I'll only list the instances that occurred in my modified Accord. I've gotten a few others (a couple 40 in a 25, one 80 in a 65... all reduced.) while working in my unmodified vehicles.



Age: 30
Times pulled over: unknown. I can recall about 4.
Times ticketed: 1
Ticket reason: unsigned driver's license


I've never gotten pulled over for racing, careless driving, or illegal modifications. ONCE, I got pulled over because the camo-painted Del Sol next to me decided to floor it, and the cop only saw me (I guess the paintjob worked!) He pulled me over for a noise violation. I revved my engine for the cop to show that the exhaust note was MUCH different, and explained that I was about to turn 27 years old... those days are behind me. He got a good laugh and sent me on my way. Nice guy.

The one ticket that I DID get was initially going to be for "running a red light"... but I watched it turn red in my rear view mirror, and informed the officer of that. He had no idea what was happening... he just came after me becuse I dropped a gear right in front of him, accelerating from 40 to 45 (in a 45mph zone) to make it safely through the yellow light, rather than slamming on my brakes and sliding out in front of him. I guess I made him feel stupid, so he had to give me a ticket for SOMETHING. Not signing my 3 day old replacement license was the best he could do.

WEll I'm not really much of a street racer, I keep it at the track mostly, but i do mod cars so I'll give you my input anyways.

Been driving since I was 16

Got one speeding ticket back then, in a rental sunfire, was going 45km/h over the speed limit.

And that was the last ticket I got for speeding

[TheFirstNutZo]

In my younger days I guess I would qualify, though I'd consider myself more of a car enthusiast/nut than a street racer.

Age 25
Been driving since 15
Been pulled over twice
Received one ticket for 44/25 which cost me ~$400 including the required safety class due to my age, would have occurred in 2002 or so.
At the time I had a 4dr Accord with an intake and a Flowmaster 60 muffler w/o resonator. Daily driver.
