10 Most Ticketed Cars

1. Hummer H2

People who love the Hummer H2 probably love its bold, imposing looks. Apparently, cops love the H2 because it helps them meet their ticket quotas. Here's a tip: If you have an H2, maybe you shouldn't drive it near then end of the month when traffic cops are scrambling to make their numbers.

2. Scion tC

Seeing the tC on the most-ticketed list makes sense, given its popularity with young people. Its sporty performance, which comes at a price that makes affording tickets easy, probably helps tempt some drivers as well.

3. Scion xB

Like the Scion tC, the xB is aimed at younger drivers. Still, when you look at the xB's less-than-stellar performance, it's safe to assume that all the tickets xB drivers are getting aren't moving violations.

4. Mercedes Benz CLK63 AMG

If you're lucky enough to have a Mercedes AMG -- any AMG -- then a few tickets are worth unleashing this luxurious beast. Besides, if you've got a Mercedes, you can probably afford a few traffic citations.

5. Toyota Solara Coupe

Now, here's a surprise. The fifth most ticketed car is the Toyota Solara Coupe. Essentially a two-door Camry, the Solara isn't known for road-thrashing performance. Maybe Solara drivers just get a lot of parking tickets.

6. Mercedes Benz CLS63 AMG

The CLS63 AMG is another luxury performance car, so it's no shocker to see its drivers among the most ticketed. The question is: With all that power, why aren't more CLS63 AMG drivers outrunning the cops?

7. Scion xA

With the xA taking the seventh spot on the ten most ticketed cars list, Scion completes the traffic-ticket hat trick. Toyota's upstart little brand has only come out with four models over its entire lifespan -- and three of them will likely get you a date in traffic court.

8. Subaru Outback

Subarus have a reputation of being yuppie grocery getters, but the Outback manages to prove that stereotype wrong by being one of the top ten most ticketed cars. Apparently, the Outback is the car of choice for people who need to get to Whole Foods in a hurry, and maybe park illegally once they're there.

9. Audi A4

Audi often finds itself in the shadows of Mercedes and BMW, but not when it comes to getting tickets. The Audi A4 is the ninth most ticketed car in America.

10. Toyota Matrix

The Toyota Matrix is often credited for bringing SUV styling to small cars. Now it can also be credited to bringing insurance rate increases to thousands of its owners.

10 Least Ticketed Cars

1. Jaguar XJ

The Jaguar XJ gives drivers a smooth ride and an opulent interior. As the least- ticketed car in America, it also seems to provide the ability to fly under radar guns. There's a feature they won't tell you about at the dealership.

2. Chevrolet Suburban

Suburban drivers tend to need their large SUVs for hauling people or towing trailers, not breaking land speed records. So it's not surprising to see it on the list of least-ticketed cars.

3. Chevrolet Tahoe

The Tahoe shares some architecture with the Hummer H2, the most-ticketed car in America. Despite the two having similar sizes, the Tahoe manages not to attract as much police attention.

4. Chevrolet Silverado 2500 and 3500

It's no shocker to find Chevrolet's heavy-duty trucks among the least-ticketed vehicles. These trucks are usually bought for their towing ability, not for impromptu drag races.

5. Buick Park Avenue

While Buick has recently begun to increase the oomph in their cars, the now- discontinued Park Avenue helped solidify the brand's image as cars for the senior set. No wonder Park Avenue drivers tend not to get very many tickets.

6. Mazda6

The largest car in Mazda's line up, the Mazda6 has plenty of the brand's zoom-zoom, yet still manages to be among the least-ticketed cars. If you love driving sporty sedans but can't take seeing any more red and blue lights in your rearview mirror, the Mazda6 may be just the car for you.

7. Buick Rainier

The now-discontinued Buick Rainier is a largely forgettable attempt at a near- luxury SUV. Maybe that forgettable nature keeps cops from noticing when one commits a traffic offense.

8. Oldsmobile Silhouette

Finding a minivan from Oldsmobile on the list of least-ticketed cars isn't surprising. What's surprising is that anyone is still driving a Silhouette.

9. Buick Lucerne

The Buick Lucerne offers a near-luxury experience at an affordable large car price. Being one of the least-ticketed cars means that the Lucerne's affordability continues after it's bought, thanks to fewer fines and lower insurance rates.

10. GMC Sierra 1500

The GMC Sierra is an attractive truck for work or play. With its ability to haul or tow heavy loads, this truck will do anything you ask it to, including avoiding traffic citations.

In a large multinational company..............

A fire alarm rang at 4 PM in a large office when almost all employees were in office (approx 5000). As usual the entire office was evacuated within 3 mins & all employees gathered outside the office in the designated area waiting for further announcement.

The Security Officer in charge made the following announcement: "Dear employees - with sincere regret I have been asked to announce that for many of you it will be your last evacuation drill. Due to the recession the company is laying off almost 50% of its employees. So when this announcement finishes, I ask all of you to move back into the building and if your swipe card does not work then it means you have been laid off in which case you will not be allowed inside and all your belongings will be couriered to you by tomorrow.

The Company has used this innovative approach as we didn't want to fill up the email box with lay-off mails and good bye mails in thousands & also to avoid any fight inside the office and the consequent security issue for all staff.

Hope you have had a rewarding career with us and all the best ahead.

Please move back in & try your luck".

Biker Robert Bennett jailed for taking son on 122mph ride in rain

From The Times

March 3, 2009

Robert Bennett’s Suzuki Hayabusa motorcycle, one of the fastest machines on the road, capable of speeds of 220mph, was barely straining when he overtook a police car.

Unfortunately for him, the bike was making such a racket that the police officer inside the car turned on his speed camera and caught Bennett doing 122mph, more than double the 60mph limit.

Clinging to the pillion as Bennett accelerated into a blind spot in wet conditions in April last year was his 14-year-old son, Russell, whose glove-less hands are clearly visible in images from the speed camera.

Bennett paid the price for what a judge called unbelievably irresponsible driving when he was sentenced at Exeter Crown Court to six months in prison.

Bennett, 47, a cleaning supervisor from Barnstaple, North Devon, had collected his son from the home of his former wife and was heading back to Barnstaple on the A361 near Swimbridge.

Lee Bremridge, for the prosecution, said that a police officer heard the sound of the bike “accelerating hard and revving its engine”.

He said: “He turned on the speed camera and captured Mr Bennett powering past them. The police officer formed the opinion that the defendant was riding dangerously.”

Bennett was traced through the registration number and initially denied being on his bike that day. He changed his mind when he was shown the footage from the speed camera. “He could not believe that was how fast he was going. He was remorseful,” Mr Bremridge said.

As Bennett pleaded guilty to dangerous driving, Judge Phillip Wassall told him that he would serve at least half his sentence as a warning to others.

He said: “Had you lost control of your motor cycle it would have become a missile, causing a serious accident and probably the death of at least one person.

“The aggravating feature of this case is that you had your 14-year-old son on the back of the bike. He was on a contact visit from your estranged wife and your lack of responsibility is almost unbelievable when considering the impact any accident would have had on her and her family as well as your family.

“This was so dangerous that I cannot ignore it or avoid an immediate prison sentence and I have to send out a message to others.

“At the time you were doing 122 miles an hour in a 60 [mph] limit, the road was wet and you were on a bend. If you had burst a tyre or someone coming the other way had pulled out, you would have lost control of the bike.”

David Sapiecha, for Bennett, said that his client had been riding motorcycles for more than 30 years and had not been drinking or taking drugs. “The dangerous aspect of the motoring was the speed and the fact that he had his son with him.

“It was an out-of-character offence over a short distance and his behaviour that day was unusual.”

Bennett had boasted that his 1300cc Suzuki was one of the fastest motorcycles on the road.

“I hold my hands up. I was doing 122 mph on that road and that was dangerous, especially with my lad on board. But it had started to rain and I pulled back the throttle.”

Natalie Hatswell, communications manager at the Devon and Cornwall Safety Camera Partnership, said: “We are all responsible for the speed at which we drive and ride. Those who choose to travel at excessive and inappropriate speeds not only risk their own lives but also the lives of others. In this case, that also included the rider’s own 14-year-old son.”

Bennett was also banned for 18 months and will have to retake his test to get his licence back.
