Same.

I would still drive like a dipshit when I was alone in the car... Then I got two tickets in a week that totaled around $1,500. One for speeding and passing a guy by going into the carpool lane (he had cut me off, so it was slam on my brakes and maybe not hit him, or go around) and within the same week some fucking cunt of a motorcycle cop gave me a ticket for no reason.

I don't even know what the fuck he was doing, but he was driving his motorcycle the wrong way down a freeway on-ramp, and then road his bike all the way up the sidewalk, almost hitting a couple of streetlights. If I hadn't spoke to him, I'd have thought he was drunk.

I was sitting at a red light watching this, and he pulls up behind me, and as soon as the light turns green he pulls me over, claims I ran a red light, and I couldn't find a current proof of insurance (it was dark, I may well have had it in there but I couldn't locate it- I was insured at the time) so he writes me a ticket for "failing to have car insurance in a car accident."

Fucking piece of shit. I tried to fight it, but I would have had to miss work a total of 5 times to go down to the courthouse, and even then I really couldn't do anything except say "there was no fucking accident!"

That last one chilled me the fuck out when I drive.

I figure, yeah, I can drive like an asshole and risk getting tickets, but even driving perfectly fine I might STILL get some bullshit fucking tickets, so why should I increase my odds of getting fucked?

I still want to find that cocksucker and beat the piss out of him. I saw him periodically in the area running red lights and just generally acting like the kind of cop everyone fucking hates.
