Today, I was pulled over by the cops for a random breathalyzer test. They asked to see my license. I always keep my wallet in my car for situations like this. I received a $100 ticket because my mum apparently didn’t think it was a good idea to keep my wallet in the car. FML

It's actually not a good idea, but in this case it's unfortunate. Ps. They've invented these new things called pockets.

Random? not possible. police are to use reasonable suspicion if they are pulling you over for suspected DUI even if it's a checkpoint its still not random. besides who doesn't carry their wallet with them. ydi

Oh for pity's sake people - USA ≠ the rest of the world. It may be illegal where you live to perform a random breathalyser test, or stop a car without reasonable suspicion, or produce a licence to avoid a fine that was issued on the spot, but that doesn't for one second mean that those rules apply anywhere else. You DO understand that laws are different from place to place, and not universal constants, right? You might as well be complaining that OP shouldn't have been driving on the left-hand side of the road.

Wow... ok, your mom should have at least TOLD you that your wallet/ID wasn't in the car, so FYL for that, and I sincerely hope you get her to pay for the ticket. However, YDI for not making sure it was there before you turned the car on. I used to keep my ID in the car too, but always still double-checked to make sure it was there in case I had taken it out for some reason or another and forgotten to put it back.

not even should the mom have told her it wasn't in the car, if i were her mom i would take it out of the car, hand it to her, and be like, "you really shouldn't leave your wallet in the car all the time" so that this doesn't happen. but OP, i agree with everyone that said you should check for it before you just head out... or, what i do is, i keep my license in an ID case that is attached to my keys, so if i'm driving, i'm always going to have my keys, therefore always have my license.

I don't know about where you live, but I know in Canada if you go back to the police station within the next 24-48 hours and show proof of your license they will get rid of your ticket.
