Personal Narrative - Speeding Ticket Essay

Speeding is a huge issue on the road for australians. Why is speeding an issue, there are four main reasons why, which are; speeding is a major contributing factor in road crashes, speeding increases the risk of crashing, speeding increases a result of an injury and speeding is a main source of car crash which increases death for passengers or bystanders. There are different types of speeding they are, Low level speeding (5 km/h to 10 km/h), Excessive speeding (Way over the limit), and inappropriate speeding (speeding in bad weather conditions). There are numbers of ways Australia are coming together to create new ways to reduce spedding. Some ways the government are trying to reduce speeding are speed cameras, demerit points and campaigns.

The trip to our destination was long, yet worth it. Me and my boyfriend (Tate) had long drive with many ups and downs. About halfway there, stopped in a quaint little town on the outskirts of Tennessee, both of our iPhone maps stopped working. It was perfectly okay though, because it was basically a straight shot to our destination. This long journey was full of excitement and anticipation to get there. As we made it

On the morning of June 17, 2016, I woke up with a smile on my face like it was Christmas morning. I launched myself out of bed to take a quick shower before I was to meet my friends to leave for Daytona Florida. We planned this trip months ahead of time when we found out there was a truck meet on the weekend of June 18th and 19th. The truck meet we went to was where anyone who owned a pickup truck could come down to Daytona Florida and drive on the beach to get to mingle and entertain one another for the weekend. We met at a local gas station in Morgantown Kentucky at eight that morning. There was eleven of us total going on the trip, my father, Robbie Henderson, my friend Seth Gaskey and his father, Jimmy Gaskey, my

It was a beautiful sunny day and my family and I were driving on the expressway. We were in my Dad’s blue truck with the fifth wheel behind us. We had the windows down in the amazing 80 degree weather. We were around our exit, Myrtle Beach! I was so excited for the trip and couldn’t wait to put my foot in the blue, cold, salt water. After the like 15 hour drive we had just suffered through I was expecting a pretty great trip.

The Saturday night party was the place to be. Anyone who is anyone was there. John’s curfew is midnight and its 12:05. Mark had been doing quite a lot of drinking and he was John’s ride home. John questioned whether or not he wanted to get in the car with Mark, but thought about how mad his parents were going to be. He was already five minutes late. Saying to himself “Just this one time,” he decided to get in the car. John never made it home that night. Mark had rolled the car off the bridge one mile away from his house. John lost his life all because he was afraid of getting grounded. There are many situations similar to John’s, and in a lot of them, no one survives. Because of all the death and tragedy as a result of driving under the

Road trips with the family weren’t always fun and exciting. Sometimes they could get very irritating. For instance, I remember the time when my family and I went to Indiana for Carter’s Hoop Shoot Regional Final. When we were finally about two hours away from our destination, the transmission on my mom’s GMC Acadia stopped working completely. As a result, we had to pay around 4,000 dollars to get it fixed and had to wait an extra couple days after the Hoop Shoot so it could get fixed. That trip was very stressful and made everything we did harder and a lot more frustrating.

In town, the rain was so intense, I could barely see ten feet in front of me. When I got onto Highway 14, everything around me was pitch black. The rain had stopped at the moment so I decided to go the normal speed limit, 65 mph. As I approached the curves, I thought to myself, “ I should probably slow down due to the conditions of the road.” I pushed that thought to the back of my mind, which was a huge mistake. A few seconds later I lost

There were points where we were only going 20 mph on the interstate. We braved the storm and did not stop once. Our minds were too set on the hopes and dreams of spring break. After making it through two states worth of driving 20 mph in a snow storm we were a bit behind schedule in meeting our friend at his place in Florida. However, we were still much ahead of the rest of our group who had just left Indiana. As we entered the sunshine state we called Jake to see where we needed to go from there. He gave us some directions as he took shots in a bar which made us skeptical as to how accurate his directions were in the first place. Although we were unsure of the accuracy of the directions given to us by our drunken friend we took the roads we were told to take.

It was an ordinary Wednesday night at youth group at church. The group decided to for snow cones at Tropical Sno. My friend, Sara McGuigan, parents would never allow her to ride in the car with any teenage driver. Sara convinced her mom to let her ride with me to Tropical Sno and I would take her home before nine p.m. We were on the way to her house on Jeff road and I turned off of Wall Triana onto Harbin Road.

I never thought that one stranger’s mistake would change the way that I would think before I act. It was two years ago when I witnessed an unlicensed man accidentally run over his mother’s leg in an attempt to help her into their vehicle. It was after leaving the shopping mall when I was sitting in my aunt’s car that this occurrence befell. I noticed that there was not sufficient room for this woman to get into her vehicle. Her son then decided to enter through the driver’s seat and back up just enough for his mom to fit into the car. This did not go as intended. Not knowing how to drive, this man in his late twenties or early thirties unintentionally ran over his mother’s leg. It tossed her down onto the pavement, leaving her incapable to

There is actually more to the beach than you think at two in the morning. My good friend Dilyn invited me to go camping at the beach campsite in San Clemente. The last time I went camping on the beach, things did not end well long story short we did not drive back with the same car that we came with. I agreed to go camping with Dilyn because there was going to be a lot of food and who doesn't love free food but I mainly agreed because my other friends Sofia and Carly were also going too. When we first arrived at the campsite, we immediately bolted towards the beach. Instead of going straight to the water Dilyn and I had to take pictures because we are girls and that is what we do. The picture taking did not go so well so me being myself dove

Here we were, already in the middle of July, packing up all of our stuff for a small get away. The plan was to see mile zero at the most southern point of Florida. My best friend, Danielle always tags along on family trips like this one. Around 5:30 on the morning on my birthday, July 17th, we loaded up our luggage and started driving. I’ve never been so excited to ride in a car for nine hours. Our suitcases consisted of mostly bathing suits and barely any clothes. We cranked up the radio to drown out the world. Even as we were driving over the treacherous seven-mile-long bridge, I felt at ease.

I’m driving down Route 4 west and I see a black BMW M3, my favorite kind of car, fly past me while I'm doing 60mph. I finally reach the Forest Ave. exit. I see my buddy Max one car ahead of me so I changed lanes and pulled next to him to say “ hi Max.” he responded with “ look I got my license!” Max followed me into the dunkin parking lot so

Maximum traffic is observed during office hours i.e. between 8.00-10.00AM and 5.00-8.00PM. Therefore the maximum violations are also done during these peak hours. Are report includes study during both peak as well as non peak hours. One another important factor is that since most of the offices are in the areas like Vandalur and Perangalatur, the maximum traffic is observed in these areas. So these areas experience maximum breaking of traffic laws.

As Americans we love our cars, trucks, SUVs, and motorbikes for many different reasons. One major reason is that they are an easy and convenient mobility; a personal mode of transportation. It is rather hard to imagine what this county would be like without all the roads and vehicles on them. This is abundantly evident in Arizona, where the majority of us drive to most all of our activities from going to work or taking the kids for an ice cream. We jump into our vehicle and go. However, a curious thing often happens when we get in our car, truck and SUVs. We sometimes change turning into someone different when behind the wheel of our vehicle. We can become inconsiderate and aggressive to other drivers; at times even becoming rude, crude,
