Today, I received a ticket for not having my headlights on. The cop who pulled me over had a broken headlight. FML

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Same thing different taste

And cops also go 80 down the road at night without their sirens on. Cops do dangerous and illegal things all the time on the road and since they enforce the laws, no one can stop them. I feel your pain OP

I can see why the officer would pull you over. I believe the number is around 70% of drivers driving without headlights at night are intoxicated

I think you can take the ticket to court for that because they can't pull you over for that if the same thing is wrong with their car I heard of someone who took the ticket to court and won but you might wanna check

There's a big difference in having a headlight out, and having your headlights off. At least he has some form of light to see. Usually, when your headlights are out, so are all the other lights. You get on a street that has no other lighting, and a car doesn't see your car until its too late because your lights were off, and then a wreck. This definitely would not happen to the cop because his lights were on. YDI for thinking having a headlight out is the same as not having your headlights on.

xD Ydi for being that retarded. Even so, the cop is an idiot for not thoroughly inspecting his car before shift. If he did and they made him take it anyway, his boss is an idiot. We get in trouble for having a headlight out we didnt know about, so if they knew theirs was out they should be held accountable like anyone else.

Unless it was just starting to get dark or something like that, why would you not have your headlights on?

Because having a BROKEN light is worse than just not having them on at all. YDI

I'm probably wrong about this, but I heard somewhere once that some cop cars come with a feature that allows them to turn one headlight off so they can catch people speeding and whatnot. Something about people not expecting a cop to have a headlight out, so they don't think about doing the speed limit since there is a cop near them. Like I said, I am probably wrong, but if not, maybe this was the case?
