ok so heres the story...

in march i was charged and convicted of 90 in a 60, i lost my license for 6 months, and got a restricted permit, probation for 6 months, 90 days in jail/88 suspended and 50 hrs community service.
i got all the CS done in a week, and was released from probation

i sold the bike to help me get a break on the ticket (didnt work) well i was TOLD by thecourts i had lost my M class indefinately

took my restriction paper to DMV 30 days after the court date liek i was supposed to and got my license, M class was still on it so i went and bought the 09 R6 i have now :D

So theres the scoop on my life the last 5 months, i have a MONTH til i get it back un restricted! WOOHOO!!!
so last night we were riding out and cruising the strip (still in the window of time my permit says for work, even tho i wasnt at work) well me and a buddy (he hasnt had his but for only 3 days) were cruising and got stopped at a light, real cute girl at the light beside us... i smile and give her a "i wish i had another helmet" look, she smiles back and eric (the guy im riding with) pulls off like a JACK ASS! trying to show off...well something in me said dont try to catch him, well meet at the lext light. so we meet back up after he slows a little. she pulls into the exit for BestBuy, i couldnt get over in time so i pull into the next, meanwhile Eric splits 3 cars to get to me cause i turned too fast and he was in the far left lane. the WHOLE time im riing liek normal, not being stupid like speeding cutting cars off or anything... well we get to the intersection where you pull in to the actual best by parking lot from the shopping center. i look to see where she is (right across from me so i wave her over) i look back to see where Eric is and what do i see but some damn blue lights! i was thinking GO AWAY ERIC dont pull in here next to me your gonna get my ass arrested!!! and he pulls up WITH THE COP RIGHT next to me!!! he gets out and says "what wre yall thinking!?" and i explain my side of the story HONESTLY and try my best not to rat on ERic, then he fuggin LIES! and says "i dont know who you saw???"... so the cop takes my license # and DOB cause i dit want to give him my actual license because of the big arse R stamped on it hopnig since he saw me and knew i asnt doing anything wrong that he would just let me go. NOT!

cop is in the car for 30 minutes getting info, while im outside cursing Eric for everything he is worth for getting me in trouble... i told him, if you see him go for the handcuffs you better run (in VA its straight to jail for driving on suspended/restricted) because if i see that im about to get arrested im gonna get as many hits in as possible for fuckin me up!

cop comes to Eric and says "Eric, i see your driving on a suspended license and no M class?" the whole time im thinking you little bastard when i get my hands on you im gonna kill you!!!

im nervous and almost having a anxiety attack by this point so i say "sir, is it going to take much longer, im on restricted for another month and i have to be home by 10PM per court order" he looks at me confused and responds "Mr Bryant, i dont know what your talking about but i see you have a M class and i cant write you guys tickets because i couldnt tell who was the one speeding (come on my bike is white and im wearing all light colors, his is red/blk and he was wearing a red shirt and black pants!) so im not giving you guys tickets, but you better be safe!im not trying to cause trouble for you guys, im trying to save you.

Mr Bryant get on home and drive carefully your free to go, Eric, i have to do some more paperwork before you can leave but can you please find someone to come get your motorcycle?"

i decide im getting up out of there before he changes his mind

today i decided to find out what happened with Eric, he left 5 mins after me and was able to leave with his bike on the back of a truck.

both of us should have been locked up NO QUESTIONS ASKED regardless if we got tickets or not...i was sitting on my bike the whole time praying as much as i could, i know im not the best Christian, but i still believe, if i talk he will listen... well let me tell you, God listened and helped me out BIG TIME! i was so shook up after all this i went to a different parking lot and laid out in the spot beside my R6

sorry it was so long, but i figured i would share my luck story with you guys, i was so happy last night after all of this! words cant explain... i had already called someone to come get my bike and bail me out of jail, i thank God so much for letting me have a second chance last night... when i really dont deserve it since i (up until this point ) had thrown caution to the wind about the restricted permit

to all that read, thanks for listening!

Thank You for sharing... you would be suprised, but there are a few of us cops out there who really do want people to just be safe, and realize we have the power to stop you and give you that smack in the face when your not keeping yourself safe.

Trust me no matter how calice we become to the fatalities and the gore... NONE of us truly want to see it. I've seen some nasty shit, and I've had to knock on doors and notify "kin"..... IT ALL SUCKS.

That's crazy! 30 over and jail time? My good buddy was spike stripped doing 130+ in a 65 in his old Jetta and he got 180 days of house arrest with driving privileges to school and work. 10 days in jail, but those got waived for additional house arrest.

Sounds like you have some good luck!

You guys need to live out west here, that's all I gotta say.

Damn they're strict back east.

When the cops come out to where we're street racing they just tell us " you guys know the drill, head back to town".

They will only come out if someone calls, because then they have to check it out.

and 90 in a 60, you'd get a 150-$200 ticket and they'd tell you to slow down. Not jailtime, lose your license and all that other bullshit.. damn

You got scared, and damn right you should have been. You knew you weren't legal but were pressing your luck anyway. WHY is my only question.

how many other traffic problems, points and tickets did you have before the 90 in a 60? i'm guessing it wasn't your first offense.

i had zero points on my license and no tickets and got hit doing 90+ in a 35. cost me over $800 and got it reduced to a 1 point stop sign.

Well Sean, I went to a job we were doing to look at the progress, while on the way back I stopped at the gas station and saw my buddy, so we made a few passes. Why did I push my luck? I wasn't disobeying traffic laws to be pulled over, how many people do you know with motorcycles do you know that get pull over for nothing? Lol... Well I never really thought about the whole "what if they can't tell which bike it was?" So I figured I would be ok... Well I was but wasn't. Lol that night made me grow up a tad more.

Also my previous charges: aids and abets to racing reckelss driving, Riding ATV on highway, speeding 5 over, 5 license plate tickets, 2 exhaust, 4 inadaquate emission components, and 2 tresspassing... Then the reckless driving/reckless endangerment 90 over.

I was a screw up, I learned... All but the 90 over ticket happened more than 2 years ago

5 Over? That sucks. In GA city and county police HAVE to give you 10 over before they can write you a ticket. Only state troopers can pull you over for <10.
