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

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I got pulled over for violating hands-free law and not having an updated address on my driver's license. Two days ago, I got pulled over for the same reasons. Now, I have four tickets I need to deal with. FML
Today, I was going 73 in a 55 on a country road when an oncoming cop passed me. He pulled a U turn. I turned off the main road and took random turns. I got lost, was 30 minutes late to work, and the cop still found me and gave me two tickets. I had to ask him for directions. FML
Today, a cop rear-ended me. Then I received a ticket from him for driving too far under the speed limit. We were in a school zone. FML
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, a policeman pulled me over and proceeded to flirt with me. After I had rejected him, he gave me a ticket for "not paying attention to the road". FML
Today, I got pulled over for having an expired registration. I also found out my husband hasn't been paying for my car insurance. Luckily, I didn't get arrested because I had my baby with me. They towed my car and gave me two tickets and a court date. Oh, and the cop sent me a friend request. 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, while driving home, I saw a cop with a speed gun "hidden" by the side of the road. I went to slow down so the fuck-knob wouldn't be able to ticket me. I then had a brain-fart and floored the gas instead of hitting the brakes. Hello speeding ticket. FML
Today, I was pulled over by a motorcycle cop for speeding in a 25 MPH zone. As the cop was walking towards my car, I flicked my cigarette butt out of my window. So, the cop did me the pleasure of writing me two tickets instead of one. FML
Today, I got pulled over by a cop and got slammed with a ticket for expired tabs on my motorcycle. The DMV was literally across the street. I was heading there to get new tabs. FML

You were driving with an expired license. You absolutely deserved it. Follow the law. It isn't hard to do.

you'd never get caught for the expired license if you didn't run the stop sign. at least u didn't kill anyone in the crosswalk, cuz then you'd have 3 tickets

The presence of a patrolling vehicle always makes people worse drivers, whether they get nervous or are looky-loos paying too much attention.

Maybe you should improve your "performance under pressure" qualities.

ROFL @ #9 Seriously, OP. Don't break the law then complain when you get busted. YDI.

I've done the stop sign while worrying too much about a cop before, but only because cops in our area are jerkwads about minor traffic violations. I'm sure they have quotas to meet- gotta keep the money rollin' in. adding insult to injury, if you were only a week late or so, many states have a grace period the police can acknowledge if they feel like it. Chances are if you hadn't run the sign, the cop would let you off with a warning, if they bothered to stopped you at all. Unless you were expired by a long shot. Then, you really had no excuse driving your car.

#2- If he had killed someone in the crosswalk I'd think he would have more to worry about than three tickets...

I was driving home many years ago. It was around three in the morning. I was approaching a stop light when I saw a cop sitting at the intersection. All my documents were in order, I was sober, but for some reason I panicked a bit, and drove through the red light right in front of him. Panicking even more as he pulled out to follow me, I proceeded to go through the next light, which was also red. He pulled me over, asked me if I knew why, I told him yes. Just then over his radio we both heard something about shots fired in a rough part of town. He let me go with a warning.

he might have been calling in your tags, and was going to pull u over anyway. Dumbass #16, so you were driving home, cop pulls you over and you get lucky cause a more important issue came to the officers attention. Who cares should have gotten a ticket anyway #14 There are no such things as quotas that money doesnt go to the dept, it goes to the city. And ya 9 times out of 10 someone needs a ticket cause people arent smart enough to understand, well what i did was wrong so lets not repeat that action. So a good 150- 300 dollar ticket gets the word across. People dont understand warnings, but they sure as hell understand the punishment when they have to give up money for tickets. #9 Ive seen some of those, They are on Meter maid trucks now in some cities, its very interesting. Im pretty sure they wont take it to law enforcement, since they got a very good computer that is linked up to everything they need, plus they have dispatch.

cops'll only pull you over if they think you might be hiding drugs or stole the car. no reason to flip out, especially on the highway. if you see a cop behind you on the highway, move over to a slower lane and watch him speed past you.

Also, in most states driving with a expired license is a arrestable offensive :)

#18 your stupid. Cops on patrol, IE State police, Highway Patrol, Metro, whatever WILL do random tag checks, calling it in to see if there is anything wrong. They pull people over for many things, not just felonies. i would say about 7/10 times a traffic violations, which is a infraction, meaning ticket only for those of you who aren't smart to catch on, turns into a felony stop because of drugs or something, and the officer didn't pull them over for drugs or its a stolen car. Simple traffic violation turns into a felony. Most of you don't have a clue about law enforcement, unlike me, and just run your mouth cause you hate them. just STFU unless you know what your talking about.
