Today, I found out my mother drives my car. I was okay with it; I don't use it all the time and she's my mother. However, I was not okay with the multiple speeding tickets that came through in the post. "You're the registered keeper, so why should I pay?" FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got a ticket for "suspicious driving" because my total shit of a mother kept tugging on the wheel to annoy me, and I still had to pay it. FML
Today, I was called a "whore," a "demon," a "piece of shit," and a "disrespectful bitch." All of this happened because I wouldn't let my mother-in-law borrow my car. This is a woman with multiple speeding tickets. FML
Today, I was pulled over for not having my car inspection up to date. I had my car inspected two weeks earlier. Since I'm at college my sticker was mailed to my home. My mother didn't want to pay the 42 cent postage, so now I have to pay $250 because my mother is cheap. FML
Today, my mom told me to follow her car closely to my aunt's house. I kept really close to her which caused me to get pulled over for tailgating. I explained everything to the cop so he went over to my mom to see if that was the truth. My mom said she didn't know me. I got a ticket. Thanks mom. FML
Today, I just bought a car with all of my own money. Then, when I brought it home my dad informed me that my mom will be driving it to work every day. FML
Today, after selling their car, my parents decided to inform me that my car (that I paid for myself) is now going to be the "Family Car". They also informed me that since it is, after all, my car, I'll still have to pay for the gas and maintenance. FML
Today, after a little detective work, I found out the money that recently went missing from my college fund was transferred by my mother, to her own account. She claims it's to pay a parking ticket. Maybe I'm just stupid, but I didn't know they fined people over $3,500 for a parking violation. FML
Today, while in the car with my mom, she gave me a lecture about how bad of a driver I am. During that process she ran a red light and hit a car. FML
Today, I found out that my Mom had taken out a loan out on my car from the repo man taking my car away. FML
Today, my mom scolded me for not taking driving lessons already. This comes a few days after she told me that, "Allowing teenagers to drive is just another way of thinning out the gene pool". FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I would speedily take the keys away from her and never allow her to drive again. You could lose your license from losing points.

Looks like it's time to start hiding your keys.

I'm guessing now you do mind if she drives your car...

In Arizona you just have to prove that you weren't the driver. But you don't necessarily have to tell them who was, in which case it just goes away. Maybe neither of you will have to pay it.

They obviously aren't from Arizona, or even the USA

Well not everyone goes and views people's profiles. Can't a person freely make a suggestion now a days without their intelligence being questioned?

No need to get snappy #40. Since the stupid update to the app you can't see the location.

I realize that they are not from the US. I don't know the laws there but I thought it was at least something for them to look into.

I see the location just fine #41

I'm sorry if It looked like I was directing my comment at you. #30 was making it seem like the most obvious thing in the world and that annoyed me a bit.

The way it works over here, she must be on the photos, so that eventually you might be able to prove it was a different person. Just tell her you'll give her name and driver's license ID if she is not reasonable and honest. ( But first make sure you copy it from her purse first ) . Be firm, she can't walk all over you because she is your parent.

Get the keys to her car and race a cop. "You're the registered owner, so why should I pay?" In all seriousness, there's no way you need to pay if you prove it wasn't you. If that doesn't work, report the car as stolen next time she takes the car

keep your keys and spares hidden away from her. tell her if she wants to drive then she has to pay.

Sounds like something my mom would do

Cut the brake line.

I'd rather pay my mom's fine then her life.

Sure murder your mother rather than talking it out with her makes sense
JustThatPerson 21
Breaking your own car AND killing your mother, are you out of your mind!?

don't speeding tickets get put on her license? as opposed to parking tickets that get put on the car?

Your mother sounds like a willfully ignorant self-centered bitch.
