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.

There is no excuse to be texting and driving. You could've killed somebody.

Texting while driving is absolutely stupid and unnecessary. The reason we are being harsh is because being distracted by a phone has killed people. If you are driving in something that weighs over 2 tons and decided to text than you're a huge ******* idiot. When on the road your full attention needs to be on the road and not at your lap. And by the way, no not everyone is stupid enough to text and drive so don't say that most people do it.

I'm a cop. You are still looking at the problem wrong. You being Dumped didn't cost you $180. You making a piss poor decision to look at your phone cost you $180.

Thank you officer, for your input. I'm sure you've seen some horrible things in your career and I would like to thank you for going out every day to protect and serve while putting your life on the line. Much respect to you guys!

You should consider yourself lucky all you got was a $180 ticket. Texting and driving is incredibly stupid and dangerous. You're not only endangering yourself but you're endangering everyone around you. Your phone can wait. Killing someone because you thought it was necessary to check your phone whilst driving won't be excused because of a break up. To be honest, I would've dumped you too. You clearly have no concern for the people's lives around you.

They should tack on an extra zero to that number and take points against your license. Maybe then people won't think it's worth it. You ******* deserve it, you shitbag, because you thought a text message was more important than someone's life.

Turn off your goddamn phone as soon as you get in the car! Or at least turn on Airplane Mode. Damn! YFDI
