Pulled over for speeding in Colorado. 106mph in a 75mph zone?
I was very irresponsible this morning and because of my actions I'm in trouble. I was running behind and got on the e470 toll road this morning on my way out to the base that I work at. Was focused on getting there on time and not on my speed, however I knew I was passing people so I should have slowed down. But it was too late and the Colorado State patrol pulled me over for 106mph in a 75mph zone. I was very polite but extremely scared. I'm not one to speed and this was the first time I ever got pulled over. The trooper was very nice. Still he wrote me the citation (for which i deserve) for a court summons and that is it. I've gone over the laws but they say anything from $50-$300 and a 6 point ticket. Other places say you need a lawyer, it'll be $1000+, atleast some days in jail. This is my first offence, have a spotless record, and no intention of trying to go fast but got wrapped up in being late. What are my chances of the more severe charges? I know this is going to hurt, a lot more then a regular ticket would be, but how bad will it most likely be? I was thinking of calling the Colorado State Patrol office and asking for anything that would help. Is there anything that I should do? I really can't afford a lawyer, but if I have a high probability of jail time without one then I might have no choice. Once again I know I was stupid for this. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
4 AnswersLaw Enforcement & Police7 years agoHelp with 87' Harley Davidson fxstc brake light?
I have an 87' HD fxstc that has a brake light problem. It seems to be always on. At first I thought the filament in the bulb was bad but when I pulled the light cover off I found that both filaments were lit but neither the hand or got brake was depressed. It does this when the ignition is on run and run w/lights. Any ideas on what is causing this and how to fix it would be great. Thanks.
1 AnswerMotorcycles7 years agoWhen I press the volume increase it changes the channel on my Sharp Aquos?
I have a Sharp Aquos Quattron 3d tv, I believe it is the LC-60LE835U model. It is hooked up to a Comcast HD box via HDMI cable. When ever I type in the channel ( on the seperate Comcast remote) the number also comes up in a black box, no big deal. When I go to increase the volume on the tv (sharp remote) the black box comes up with 88GA and changes to channel 88. I can't even change the channels with the sharp remote, but yet when I increase volume it changes. Very annoying ! This tv has been awesome until this weird problem. Have tried the simple resets through the tv settings men to no avail. Please any information on how to solve this is helpful.
3 AnswersTVs8 years agoCan I expand sch40 pvc couplings with boiling water?
I'm trying to get a set of ball bearings in a 1/2" sch40 PVC coupling, and it wont fit. The ball bearing is not even a millimeter wider. My hope is to expand the PVC just a bit to fit the bearings. Can I boil the PVC, or does it need to be hotter. If I need more heat, and put it in the oven, what temperature would it be and would it create any fumes? Any information is greatly helpful. Thanks.

3 AnswersJazz1 decade agoGood mountain bike trail in colorado?
Im looking for a decent Mountain bike trail in Colorado. Im looking for something that has a good easy climb but a more technical downhill. If at all possible in an are where there is a lot of aspen trees. its fall, so the trees are turning and it would make for an epic an colorful ride. Here is the tricky part, it kinda has to be with in an hour or so of the denver metro area. Boulder canyon, lyons, Estes park would probably even work. i know the top part is picky, but it would be nice, but im game for anything so please leave some suggestions. Thanks.

Ive got a second generation ipod itouch with the 3.0 update installed. Im' trying to jailbreak my device, but have run into a problem. In all the applications that ive tried, such as; redsn0w, QUICKpwn, and QuickFreedom, have all required the saved firmware off the computer. I cant find this to save my life!
