Seriously? I was just there last week and took full advantage of the openness of the roads in Asheville. Good thing I never had a cop in sight. Maybe saw 3 of them the entire time I was down there.
I have a few stupid moments:
80 in a 55 "safety corridor" zone - 18 years old then in my grandfathers S10, no prior offenses, $300 fine, 2 points on my license dropped from a $2.5k fine and 6 points, my only ticket to this day.
Whipped my FR-S around the ex's house in a fury (wanted her the hell out of my car) and was doing 50 around the turn with a local cop right behind me (derp) got off with a "just don't do it again...nice car by the way"
I "pimped" out my prior car which was a 2000 Dodge Grand Caravan SE. Double din head unit, bluetooth, sat, nav, etc all those goodies and to top it off I had done all the speakers and whatnot and added 2 12" subs each with their own 1,000 watt RMS amp with a custom enclosure (ported) that took up the entire trunk. Holy SPL....was stopped almost 2-3 times a day for it...it was too hysterical to not laugh at so I always got away with it. Just smiled and said it's my only toy.
There's probably a few more things I'm forgetting but it's early yet.
