Today, I was driving when I noticed that the guy in front was on the phone. I pulled up next to him, pulled out my phone and I made a gesture that he needed to put his phone away. It was a cop. I got a ticket for driving while on my cell phone. FML

That's what happens when you don't keep your nose out of things.

You don't deserve the ticket, that was an asshole move on the cop's part, but driving up beside someone to gesture for them to put their phone away is not your place unless you see that the driver cannot drive properly while distracted by their phone, even if talking on a cellphone while driving is illegal where you live.

Wow some cops think the law doesn't apply to them I've even seen cops pass a red light for no reason other than they didn't want to wait like 1 min for it to turn green

You're an idiot for even doing that. What business of yours is it if someone else was on their phone?
