He can take it as well and get a 5 point credit. Any future ticket (if he every go one) would mostly be erased (look at it as ticket insurance ).

I'll find out the name of the place I went to last year, 75 bucks and a Saturday, and they let you leave early and give you the answers for the test at the end.

Maryland and Virginia are on different systems. MD has MVA and VA has DMV. You would definitely have to take separate driver improvement classes for each state. I'm surprised your lawyer(s) haven't recommended this.

On another note ... are you going out of your way to misspell "would" with "wud"?

So you took one a couple years back because you were "required" to by DMV or Court? Or did you volunteer?

Reason I'm asking is you can only take a "volunteer" (5 points off) driver improvement class once every two years. But if you were "required" to take it, then that doesn't count as volunteering. I'm guessing you were required to take it. Which means you should be in the clear to get 5 points taken off.
The class I took was required by the judge in order to cancel out the "Failure to Yield" ticket that created for the first bashed in door on the Taco.

I wonder who bashed in the Taco door for a second time, hmmm...........
Just playing Berto !!!

Anyways, so that means that I can take this class to get the +5 bonus points then.

Guess I am doing it.

Ian,
Thanks for the little motorcade you did with your bike on the way to Shenandoah.

Let me know if you find out about this.

Definitely.

When is your court date? Mine is on July 10, 2007 at 1:30 pm, when is yours?

I think that we both should go to the driving course and the court date. If we go to the court date and the judge drops the charge to under 20mph over then we will actually be ahead of the game with driver points .

I think having the documentation of taking the driving improvement course before the court date may sway him (judge) to lower the offense, I don't know, it's just a thought.

And oh yeah, ITSherZ (AKA Jesus), you are definitely coming

http://www.keithsdrivingschool.net/ The one in Vienna is the one that I went to. The guy was kind of like an old school happy hill billy, rocked the Gerri Curl(sp?), and was telling stories about when he put a bunch of Vodka into a watermelon, ate it then went driving and drove the car into a lake with one of the other driving instructors in the car with him. Then at the end he gave us the answers and the little card that shows that we passed the course.

lol your welcome, that's the benefit of the bike sometimes, and if a cop had seen me I could have just said that I pulled over to get out of their way/watch and probably wouldn't even a ticket. So I guess until my car is done I'm the designated biker/motorcade guy lol.

I think there is a Z on the cover of super street this month with an AWD but I don't think it's out of a G35X.
