Never Get a Speeding Ticket or Red Light Camera Ticket Again!

Have you ever experienced that sick-to-the-stomach feeling of seeing red and blue lights flashing in your rear view mirror? I have, and let me tell you, it's far from comforting. It doesn't matter how nice the cop inside the impervious police car is, if he caught you speeding, he's not going to let you get away with it.

Crying won't help your case. In fact, if you get a female police officer, she's probably even more likely to ticket you if you cry.

Begging won't get you out of it. Groveling to the police officer might rub his ego, but it's not going to make points with him otherwise.

Arguing DEFINITELY won't get you out of a speeding ticket. The last thing a cop wants to hear from your mouth is any sort of confrontation.

Needless to say, you're not going to get out of your ticket when the cop pulls you over. You might get out of it in court, but only after you've spent a full day waiting your turn in line to dispute the ticket in addition to a couple hundred dollars in attorney fees.

I know exactly how you feel at this point. You feel like you would have done anything to prevent this from happening. It may seem too late for that now, but it's not.

The most important thing to remember when you get a ticket is that you MUST do everything in your power to prevent yourself from getting a ticket again! There are too many financial burdens that attach themselves to getting a ticket that you really can't afford to get more than one.

Let's look at how your finances are affected when you get a ticket:

• The ticket itself can cost from $80 up to $250 or more, just for speeding alone
• If you choose to dispute the ticket, you could end up spending over $300 in attorney's fees. If you lose the dispute, you will end up paying that PLUS the cost of the ticket
• The ticket will be applied to your insurance, which means you lose any safe driver discounts you might currently enjoy, as well as a small percentage increase in your yearly insurance premiums, up to 3 years. Most insurance costs over $1000 per year for car coverage, so even a small percentage increase can total $50 or more per year!

Needless to say, a ticket is not only a nuisance, it's a financial quandary. So it's in your best interests to prevent yourself from getting a ticket again in the future.

But how do you do that? There are quite a few ways to take extra precautions, like not driving so fast and keeping your eyes open for cops on the road, but that's just not enough. What you need is a more reliable and dependable way to drive without worrying every time you see a squad car on the road.

That's why you should consider investing your hard-earned money in a detective device that will alert you to every speed trap, squad car, red light camera, speed photo enforcement zone, and other potential ticketing hazard you encounter on the road - BEFORE it's too late.

For only $9.99 a month you can receive to-the-second updates while you drive via a GPS or smartphone that you already own. This is the best way to beat a speeding ticket and prevent your insurance rates from rocketing sky-high.

Now you might be asking yourself, is this kind of service legal? The answer is YES, absolutely! In fact, many police departments recommend the use of devices like these that will help you drive more safely and be more alert to driving conditions.

PhantomAlert is the most highly recommended speeding ticket and red light camera enforcement prevention system you can ever hope to own. It's definitely more affordable than getting a speeding ticket, and far less hassle to deal with every day you're driving to work.

PhantomAlert works on the GPS you already own, or you can order a system to install in your car. Either way, PhantomAlert has you covered and is ready to alert you to any potential speeding hazards and red light cameras you will encounter along your route.

If you drive every day, or if you have a history of getting speeding tickets, or even if you've only gotten one ticket and hope to prevent those flashing lights from ever appearing in your rear view mirror again, I highly encourage you to start using PhantomAlert. It will save you so much money on ticket fines, attorney fees, court costs, and insurance premium spikes that you will wonder how you ever drove without it.

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves:

• Only $49.99
• Sequel to Uncharted 1: Drake's Fortune

New Comrades

Elena Fisher returns to Uncharted as a woman slightly scorned by her replacement, Australian adventure-seeker, Chloe Frazer. Chloe will undoubtedly add a new dimension to the game, if in none other way than with a foreign accent, but both females will likely create sparks of tension throughout the movie portion of the game.

Another confirmed comrade is Victor Sullivan, a.k.a., Sully. The lazy, womanizing Sully, who somehow makes himself a lovable, indispensable character, will again join Nathan Drake in his adventure quest.

Players can choose to play Chloe, Elena, Nate, and Sully on the "Heroes" side of the multiplayer game.

Player on the "Villains" side play heavily suited mercenaries, who, as I found out in the multiplayer game, are very difficult to get in and out of a small doorway due to their outfits. They're a little on the bulky side, and don't seem to move quite as fast. However, they are difficult to kill with brutal combat, unless you're sneaking up behind for a stealth kill.

New Toys

What's a new game without some new weaponry to go along with it? In the multiplayer version, the most notable new weapons are the FN-FAL and the Gatling gun. The FN-FAL is a good substitution for the AK-47, especially at long distance, with the exception that it seems to take several shots to down an enemy in the multiplayer game. It is very similar to the M4 but seems to be somewhat more effective in certain circumstances. The Gatling gun will likely be "fun" but some players are already complaining that it's overkill.

Another cool feature is the addition of the riot shield. Anyone from either side can pick up a shield, but it is not only unwieldy, but also very heavy. I seem to have a hard time getting my player to run in the first place, but you're slowed to a slow walking pace with the shield. However, this may prove to be a necessity in some circumstances, because in the multiplayer game, with 10 players, you don't stay in the game very long before someone shoots you out. A shield used properly could help provide extra cover that a wall simply can't.

New Battlegrounds

The premise of the new game is to find a Cintamani Stone and the lost kingdom of Shambhala (a.k.a.Shangri-La), an ill-fated voyage attempted by Marco Polo centuries earlier. Nate is again using notes from an ancient treasure hunter to map his quest, which takes him to the Himalayas and through parts of the Orient. New battlegrounds will include palaces, the Himalayan mountains, and scenes known as The Plaza and The Village in the multi-player game.

New Tactics

You will need to familiarize yourself with the new weapons before heading into battle. There are some tight quarters to run in and out of in The Plaza and The Village, and running into them with weapons can get you stuck, turned around, or shot. Some of your armor, like the riot shield, might not fit through the doorways, nor can you jump very easily. Take these new factors into account when you are learning the new game.

New Goals

In the multiplayer game, your goals don't just involve killing the enemy. You also need to work with your team members to pick up treasure from a central location and bring it back to your home base without dying or losing it.

In the single player game, you will be trying to outwit the war criminal Lazarevic in an attempt to reach treasure and the lost kingdom before he does. You will be looking for the Cintamani stone, a huge blue sapphire. But will it prove to be a curse, as did the gold statue in Uncharted: Drake's Fortune? You'll just have to wait and see. Be careful what you take home!

It doesn't matter if you're new to Nathan Drake's adventures, or are a die-hard Nathan Drake fan like I am; you're sure to have a blast with the new Uncharted 2: Among Thieves video game for Sony Playstation 3!
