Today, I was going 73 in a 55 on a country road when an oncoming cop passed me. He pulled a U turn. I turned off the main road and took random turns. I got lost, was 30 minutes late to work, and the cop still found me and gave me two tickets. I had to ask him for directions. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was driving home from work when I saw a cop come up behind me. Nervous about my expired license, I kept checking in my rear view mirror. In turn since I wasn't paying attention, I ran a stop sign. Needless to say the cop pulled me over and gave me 2 tickets. FML
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 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, 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 driving a few hours late at night I decided to entertain the car tailgating me by not letting him pass. After doing this for 3miles, reaching 93MPH, I decided to let the car pass me. When I switched lanes, the car tailgating me light up in red and blue. It was a cop. FML
Today, a cop pulled me over because there was a sign hidden behind a tree that said "No left turn". As I was getting my ticket, I watched as three cars turned left. The cop saw them, laughed, and said, "I guess you're the unlucky one." 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
Today, I was tailgated by a car with his high beams on for an hour. Any time I changed my speed or lane, he would do the same. I finally managed to get away from him because a cop pulled me over and gave me a speeding ticket. FML
Today, I was driving down a completely empty street when a cop pulled me over for no reason at all. When he approached my window, I began to get defensive until he informed me I was driving the wrong way down a one way street. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

All you idiots that think that going over the speed limit is unsafe, hands down, are stupid morons. I have lived in 10 different states (My Dad's in the military, and I am about to move to the 11th for my new job), and I have never been on a road where it's not safe to go at least 10 over the speed limit, as long as you are paying good attention to driving, and not f**king around on your phone or something. I usually go 15 over as a rule, unless if its raining hard or snowing, or there is something else making it less safe. Those speed limits were created either due to reasons unrelated to safety (such as the aforementioned gas mileage), or because of idiots that don't pay attention to their driving and aren't safe even if they're going 10 MPH.

If anyone thinks he doesn't deserve this your probably one of the most naive people i've ever met. First of layoff the transporter movies, cops, fast & furious, etc. and just pay the f***ing ticket ya' coward.

Whoever thinks that cops can't check your speed limit from the other side is ignorant.

I have ran from the cops before one time I got caught one time I didn't. The one time I got caught I got chewed out and ticketed. One time a cop was passing me and I was speeding I saw him turn around so I pulled over and waited for him. Once again I got chewed out for speeding, being out too late, my registration not being on my windshield and my tinted windows I could be ticketed for all of it he let me go.

Who ever thinks that speeding causes more accidents is stupid. Statistically, when the speed limits were lowered, there were a great deal more accidents. There were just a great deal (percentage wise) fewer fatal accidents. And statistically, if there are more accidents, and an equal number (numerically) are fatal, then percentage based estimates drop. Lowering speed limits is not the answer. Making licenses harder to acquire, and ticketing people for bad driving is the way to get the job done. Stop people's distractions. Similarly, when speeds were increased in studies, the number of accidents actually DECREASED. The reasoning behind this is that at higher speeds you tend to pay better attention to the road. So again, the way to be safe on the road is to eliminate distractions such as cellular phone use, eating while driving, and reading while driving (seriously. It happens). As for this person: I call shenanigans. A cop (under the assumption we're in the US) can't follow you through random turns unless his lights were on. In that case, you would have gotten a lot more than two tickets for running and speeding. All in all: If this is a true story, you totally deserved being late to work. As far as the speeding ticket... the law is posted. Even if it's a stupid law. Your fault. -An Engineer and Ramblin' Wreck.

Hey i believe the reason less accidents happen with faster driving is the adrenaline :) makes you think faster

#2 exactly! you know police aren't dumb donut eating idiots that are easily fooled. They are trained professionals who catch stupid ppl like you for a living. YDI for speeding so excessively, and another YDI for trying to get away with it.
