Today, I got pulled over for a busted tail light. The officer gave me a warning and told me to fix it. Ten minutes later I was pulled over again for the same busted tail light by the same cop. This time he wrote me a ticket. FML

Today, I got pulled over for speeding and got a $200 ticket. After I pulled away, I decided to warn the next car about the cop up ahead by flashing my headlights. The next car was another cop. He didn't appreciate my "help". FML

Today, I was driving home from work when I was pulled over by a cop. She asked why I was being pulled over and figuring she knew I said, "For swerving because of my alcohol problem." I had a broken tail light. FML

Today, I was tailgated by a car with his high beams on for an hour. Any time I changed my speed or lane, he would do the same. I finally managed to get away from him because a cop pulled me over and gave me a speeding ticket. FML

Today, a state trooper ticketed me after learning I was ticketed for the same offense an hour earlier, namely driving with a broken headlight. The good news is that both tickets will be dismissed if I go to court. The bad news is that I'd have to go to different courthouses at the same time of day. FML

Today, I was pulled over by a cop and was fined $210 for making an illegal u-turn. When the cop finished writing my ticket and hopped in his car, he made the same u-turn. FML

Today, I was driving home from work when I saw a cop come up behind me. Nervous about my expired license, I kept checking in my rear view mirror. In turn since I wasn't paying attention, I ran a stop sign. Needless to say the cop pulled me over and gave me 2 tickets. FML

Today, I got a speeding ticket. I wrote a check, and on the way to deposit my fine, I got another one. I put both fines in a box down town, and I turned around to see a cop putting a parking ticket under my wind-shield wiper. FML

How dare you not fix it in those ten minutes? That's painfully irresponsible of you.

I fail to see a ydi in this...it was 10 mins...NO ONE can get a taillight fixed in 10 mins unless they get pulled over like right in front of a repair shop...

Instead of everyone assuming the cop is an idiot or a douche, let's insert another hypothesis here. OP gets pulled over initially for broken tail light. Cop gives OP a warning. OP gets pulled over for a different infraction 10 minutes later. Cop, being the nice guy that he is, decides to give OP a ticket for tail light which is cheap and carries no points, instead of the other infraction which is several hundred dollars and carries three to four points. This has happened to me.

Yeah that definitely sucks OP. Technically speaking he never even had to give the warning but still tough luck.

Take it to court you can fight it and guarenteed win if u already received a warning. Judge will look at the cop n tell he he's an idiot. Well probly not but def will be thinking it for wasting his time. Happy trial
