http://www.vehix.com/articles/...-carsIt's cause our cars are so awesome they don't wanna mess with us! Edit: OK My bad... i found the real thread about this... i saw that it said most ticketed but didnt read all the way through it. please forgive me and delete this at your discretion. It is hilarious that the Matrix is #10 most ticketed and Vibe is #10 least ticketed!

i don't agree with this list lol they are not including the fusion vibes

Or you just don't want your insurance rates going up any more.

Here, minor road violations have no bearing on how much government run insurance costs me... But with surcharges and levies and taxes and fees and the fines themselves, one must use all availible techniques to avoid the fuzz!!!

No offense to you young ones, but I rather enjoy seeing you guys fly by me on the expressway and then a few miles up seeing a cop parked behind you.The cops in the Flint area used to fly small planes noting the time it took for people to drive between marked areas on I-75. Ah, the good old days.

I've made it through my 1st 9 years of driving with no tickets or insurance claims . (Knock on wood). Having only $85/month insurance at age 26 is one of my favorite things about my Vibe!

No speeding for me. I have made a commitent to keep the money I work HARD for.....not give it away to someone else for my carelessness. Havent had a ticket since 1997-ish.

Well, I don't know about your Vibes, but in my case 108hp + AWD = No Speeding. But I'm not complaining; besides being one the least ticketed vehicles, it's consistently one of the least stolen too. That makes for good insurance rates.

(Knock on wood). Having only $85/month insurance at age 26 is one of my favorite things about my Vibe! :-)Same here. I've never gotten a speeding ticket in my 10 years of driving. I have gotten warnings and tickets for things like window tint, no front license plate, etc. but none of those went on my record, so I'm 26 and my insurance is super cheap as well. It's been 5 years since I've been pulled over. I don't forsee getting pulled over in the Vibe either so that's always a plus. I like my money in my bank account, not in the hands of the state, they already get enough of my money .

I'm in it for the gas mileage, not for getting from point A to point B in the shortest possible time. I get a twisted satisfaction from knowing that I'm getting 32-35 miles per gallon while the SUV blowing past me is only getting 16-18. Heck, I got 25-27 pulling a trailer with the Vibe.

Heck, I got 25-27 pulling a trailer with the Vibe.I totally agree! I look forward to filling up and seeing what my latest mileage is .

OH wait a minute! Its not just us young ones who get tickets! NO! OLDIES also get them! I don't know how many times I've seen old people pulled over getting a ticket.. And I've never been pulled over.. (knock on wood).. lol and I don't speed THAT much.. just 5-10MPH over the limit..
