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.

No excuse. The ticket was justified.

The content of the text is irrelevant. Texting can wait. End of story. YDI

Oh sorry but maybe you shouldn't have been texting while driving ok? Think about that next time when you could have killed somebody OMG get over it and cop on you could have killed someone by you being dumped. I think saving someone's life outweighs bring dumped ydi

Ooh dangerous. Way more than speaking on the phone and driving where your eyes are on the road, which isn't recommended either.

I don't think I've ever seen a FML that was so clearly the OP's fault.

No, texting and driving costs you $180. Idiot.

Sorry you got dumped, but that's not what cost you $180. Being a dumbass and texting while driving is what cost you $180. Thank goodness no one was hurt due to your appalling disregard for safety. Next time pull over somewhere safe to check your texts. YDI all the way.

180$ is far less than you should've been charged for your reckless behavior, just imagine you could've created a car accident! fyl? no, fy!!!

Did they cite "unable to take personal responsibility" as a reason for dumping you?
