I got a ticket for running a yellow...errr red ... light , there was another car a little behind me, maybe a half a car length in the other lane, but the cop pulled me over only not the other guy.

I figured it was because of the Hummer, but i guess i did earn the ticket.

no think u got the ticket coz u actually ran a red light and the car behind u at least stopped not because u have a hummer (^_^)
He and the other car ran the red light he crossed it first so.. I would think the other car who was half a car length behind you and crossed the light last should have gotten the ticket!

After reading many posts here on this forum, there are allot of H3 drivers that speed.
I must me the slowest of all of them, no tickets so far.

My uncle is a police officer and he tells me that typically Hummer drivers are generally very responsible drivers and he has never pulled one over. I find that my H3 is really good at faking out the cops! Today I was going 70 in a 60 and I passed a speed trap and he did nothing. It's good at manipulating speed perception because it's so big, like a train moving that you think is going so slow but it's actually going very fast! Lol.

I've gotten 2 tickets in my H3.
1 for not coming to a complete stop, even though it started to roll backward.
1 for running a red light which was yellow.

I posted this is a separate thread from a different news source.

My favorite quote:

"Hummer drivers feel like kings of the road because of their elevated driving position," Mark S. Foster, author of "A Nation on Wheels: The Automobile Culture in America Since 1945," told Quality Planning. "As these statistics show, they are leading the pack when it comes to violating the law, which may reflect their driving attitude."
