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 to work when a state trooper rammed into my car from behind, because he was on the cell phone and not paying attention. He gave me a ticket for "Failure to control speed to avoid a crash." FML

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

Today, I was on the way to traffic court for a $340 speeding ticket I'd got. My mother called me and I wasn't paying attention which caused me to speed. Right past a cop. When I told the cop where I was going, he started laughing at me. I now have another $300 ticket. FML

just because it's a breakup text doesn't mean it's a freebie.

I mean, either way you shouldn't have been texting.

Sorry about your breakup, but you don't text and drive.

Sorry OP but you deserve it. Literally no text is worth risking your life and the lives of those around you.

No, #23, they don't. Texting and driving is incredibly stupid and very dangerous. If you believe texting to be more important than paying attention to the road when you're driving a car, then you shouldn't be driving. OP completely deserved that ticket.

pretty sure it's texting while driving that costs $180

I'm sorry you were dumped OP, but texting while driving? That's incredibly stupid and incredibly dangerous. You deserved that ticket.

Be glad you aren't Canadian, that breakup would've cost you $500. Don't text and drive

There's a couple of states in the US where it costs over $700, last I checked. The rest of them should raise their fines, IMO. OP is lucky to get only $180.

Now that's what I call a double whammy. Dang OP that's rough. But don't you see all the billboards and commercials? Don't text and drive.

I'm a 17 year old girl and I have had my license for over a year. I have never once thought to text and drive. It's such a stupid thing to do. There is no excuse for it.

YDI all the way. $180 is a lot less than what a human life is worth. Texting and driving is really ******* selfish and dangerous. And don't think you're too good of a driver to get into an accident, because no one is. Does a text really matter that much that you can't wait a bit to read it?
