Today, I got pulled over for a busted tail light. The officer gave me a warning and told me to fix it. Ten minutes later I was pulled over again for the same busted tail light by the same cop. This time he wrote me a ticket. FML

Today, I was driving home from work when I was pulled over by a cop. She asked why I was being pulled over and figuring she knew I said, "For swerving because of my alcohol problem." I had a broken tail light. FML

Today, after parking my car, I was informed by an incredibly hot girl that my tail light was faulty. I tried hitting it to make it work again. Guess who has 5 stitches and a smashed tail light? FML

Today, I got pulled over by a cop and got slammed with a ticket for expired tabs on my motorcycle. The DMV was literally across the street. I was heading there to get new tabs. FML

Today, I got a speeding ticket. My speedometer got busted a few weeks back, rendering it useless. My father, a former mechanic, decided it's not worth the trouble of going in and fixing it. "Just keep with traffic when you're on the highway; you'll be fine." This $150 fee says otherwise. FML

If you get it fixed right away and show the judge you did so, they often will throw out the ticket.

Did you tell the cop that? If you did, and he still gave you a ticket, FYL. If not, YDI.

was coming in to say the exact same thing. this ticket should be dismissed as long as she can show prof that she was headed to the mechanic. an appointment card from the shop should be enough.

Yea, I got pulled over for a RBT and one of the cops there was going to give me a defect for my front tyres being slightly too low on tread they were technically bald, but I was able to show them a work order from that morning showing I'd purchased more and was due to get them fitted that afternoon when they arrived in. Some cops are good about that some, others are just the law is the law so, here's a ticket.

Depending on where you live, if you show proof that you have it fixed then you don't have to pay.
