Lol wow were 264% more likely to get tickets.... Explains why I had a sports car for a few months and never got a ticket in it then have the B5 for a month and get a ticket lol. Only had 2 and already have 10 points on my license...

While having my A4, I believe I have been pulled over about 7 maybe 8 times. My license has been suspended twice for points violations. In the last two months, i have been pulled over 3 times!

Mind you, most tickets I have been legitimately speeding. But the last three, I was doing nothing to attract attention to myself, but was pulled over for expired registration. Junker.

Never would have guessed on the Hummers. I've been pulled over at least once in every car I've driven though, which begs the question.... Do we get tickets because we drive A4s, or drive A4s because we get tickets? lol

Have you ever seen a Hummer that wasn't driven buy a 35 year old blonde lady doing her make up or talking on her cell phone?

It'd dangerous to agree to do that crap... last time I did that I hit a Grand Am and totaled it. The Audi still needs a bumper haha.

Only been pulled over once in the A4. But that was because I started out from a stoplight and kind of drifted around into the far lane sideways. Never lost control or it was doing what I wanted, but a cop was coming up going the other direction and whipped around quick.
Cost was $100, but the city was sued for having high ticket prices(to the point of being illegal by state law) and they sent me back a check for $70. Needless to say I haven't changed my driving style when it's icy/snowy out.
