Bagiant, good luck. These kinds of cops are called ticket whores.

I'm from a law enforcement family. I got a ticket once for not coming to a complete stop at a blinking red light.

Motorcycle cop had me stopped ticketed and was gone in a blast.

I fought the ticket, postponed a couple of hearings, and finally he did show up and he was fucking pissed off at the fact I would challenge his ticket. What a POS. I still lost.

The judge reduced the fine in half which was cool. I got to cross examine him and he was fucking livid.

I spent 20 mins. trying to break him but couldn't. This happened in the friendly city of El Cajon.

If I had to do it all over again, I would hire an attorney. I wouldn't think twice.

Tree girl, were you there? Why would you assume I broke the law just because a cop give me a ticket?

I was driving in the middle of a pack of about 15 cars, along side and in the front of me.

When I was stopped, there was not a word of explanation other than asking me for my info, handing a ticket back, then off he went to his next victim. I was stunned and caught off guard and determined to get to the bottom of this. Was I profiled? Who knows. I never attacked his character. Didn't have too.

I had a needing to know for his lack of interaction in my situation and wanted to look him in the eyes and have him answer for his actions. Nothing more, nothing less. That I did.

I didn't agree with the judge's decision to side with the officer, but there are not perfect either as I have an older brother that is a judge, and they do the best they can.

Sorry if I offended your lilly white beliefs that police are never wrong, they can't be, you'll married to one, right.

Your comment was typical pro police, and all people of color are guilty as charged, right.

Good luck.......

How does it feel miss air buscuits.

you knowingly broke the law, so shut up and pay the fine.

I was doing 65 on a 50 mph highway and so was everybody around me. I got picked out of the crowd and pulled over.

I asked the cop why me and he said "why not you"?. He further said "there's a lot of fish in the sea and I'll never catch them all but today I caught you".

I was 19 at the time, maybe that's why he picked me, I'll never know but it taught me a very valuable lesson. Break the law and man-up, pay the fine, learn from your stupid mistake and move on.
