Today, I got pulled over on the highway for going over the speed limit. The cop seemed nice, and I was sure he'd let me off with a warning, until my husband piped up with, "Didn't think you folks came out this far. What, the donut store got shut down or some shit?" I got the ticket. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was pulled over and was given a $300 ticket for going 90mph on a 70mph highway. The cop swore he saw my silver car darting in and out of traffic. A couple of minutes earlier that exact car had passed me while I was following the speed limit. FML
Today, my husband and I were pulled over by a cop. He was still angry from our earlier argument over his constant freeloading, and when the cop told him we'd been doing 75 in a 55, he retorted, "Yeah? I did 75 in your mom last night, fuzzball." One more ticket I have to pay for. FML
Today, I got pulled over for speeding. I tried to make a joke to ease the tension and said, "I’m just trying to keep up with the traffic!" The officer looked around at the empty road and said, "What traffic? Are you under the influence? HANDS ON THE WHEEL!" It went downhill from there. FML
Today, I got pulled over and ticketed while taking cookies to the local police station. FML
Today, a cop rear-ended me. Then I received a ticket from him for driving too far under the speed limit. We were in a school zone. FML
Today, a policeman pulled me over and proceeded to flirt with me. After I had rejected him, he gave me a ticket for "not paying attention to the road". FML
Today, after giving my husband a ton of crap about the speeding ticket he got last year, I got a speeding ticket. FML
Today, I got pulled over for speeding and got a $200 ticket. After I pulled away, I decided to warn the next car about the cop up ahead by flashing my headlights. The next car was another cop. He didn't appreciate my "help". FML
Today, while driving home, I saw a cop with a speed gun "hidden" by the side of the road. I went to slow down so the fuck-knob wouldn't be able to ticket me. I then had a brain-fart and floored the gas instead of hitting the brakes. Hello speeding ticket. FML
Today, I was smoking while driving. A cop pulled me over and asked if I knew what I did wrong. I thought he could smell the tobacco, so I decided to just admit it. As it turns out, I was going well over the speed limit. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Next time tell him to shutup before all the stupid comes out.

I'm sorry, OP. Maybe next time try not to speed or go over the limit. Just pay your ticket before it gets higher.

So your husband likes to act before thinking. Not a good sign to miss!

Was your husband Paul Walker?

No. Paul Walker's dead.

But he won't be buried nearly as well as your stupid comment.

YDI for speeding in the first place. Just because a cop seems nice doesn't mean you deserve only a warning.

When are people going to learn that if you just respect cops they're nice? They only start powertripping when you challenge them. Also everybody saying she deserves it for speeding, you clearly don't have your license yet. IDK what part of Maryland OP is in, but in Baltimore all the highways have speed limits that, reasonably, are 10-20 mph to slow and have approximately 2 less lanes then are needed on any given section of any given highway. If everybody obediently crept down the Baltimore beltway at 55 MPH, especially at the bottlenecks where it goes down to 2 lanes, the beltway would be clogged and unnavigable 24 hours a day.

That does suck, but from an onlookers point of view, your husband ended up giving what you deserve. So yeah, FYL, but also, YDI.

I think your husband saying that didn't get you the ticket but still that comment was unnecessary...

The comment was unnecessary, but I think everyone realizes that telling an insult to a cop won't get you out of a ticket, right? The husband probably thought the cop was going to give her a ticket, so then he insulted the cop. Then after she got the ticket, they probably argued about whether or not she was about to be let go with a warning before he opened his mouth (she obviously thought she was, but I'm guessing that he didn't think so). So then she went on fmylife.com to complain about the ticket that she got "because of her husband."

I would have asked the officer to look away from a few seconds whilst you smacked him stupid - what a moron
