Default Tickets

I'm just woundering whats the stupidest tickets that some of you out there have gotten?

I'm asking because I was riding with my mini truckin friend and one of his rear airbags blew out, dropping the frame thrown sparks at traffic behind us (lasted maby 3 secounds befor pulling over). Basicly the cop came up behind us (which we were already pulled over) and wanted to give us a ticket for something we couldn't have prevented. (they dont give tickets to people whos tires blow out on the side of the road.) My buddys dad who was a few cars behind us stoped and argued with the cop about who sh*t happens and we didnt intend for it to. ending up the cop called for back up and arrested his dad (if the cop wouldn't have had so my donutes in his life we would be able to bend over and see the bag was blown) my friends basicly taking it to court to try and reduce the 285 dollar ticket.

Thats BS. I've been pulled over 23 times, and come very very close to getting a ride in the back of a cop car two of those. Usually the cops are pretty friendly.

What a D$#%.
I got a ticket for going ten miles over the speed limit. I was driving down a steep grade on my way to the dealership to buy a new speedometer cable since mine had broken. I was even going with the flow of traffic, but Johnny Law didn't care. I don't know how much the ticket was though.

I got 50 euros for cycling across a road 10 metres away from a designated crossing point. Also Ihad a crash when young 50% my fault but was nice as the other person want the cops to be called so i went to the nearest house and called the cops (i didn't need to legally) anyway proved the cop was lying in court as the skid marks he drew and the ones i pictured with date capture were complete different so me being white middle class know thing a cops are lying lazy pieces of ****!! especially when somebody chucked a brick at my car and because no damage was done they wouldn't come and investigate.

Ahh well you see i dont agree with seatbelt tickets and as far as unfair cops giving me tickets. I get out of ALL my tickets PERIOD. I use the LAW OF DISCOVERY LOOK IT UP PEOPLE! btw the judge will not be happy when you follow through so be prepaird to stick to your guns.

Ya I'm not a big fan of the seat belt laws either. If you dont want to wear them then you shouldn't have to, it's your risk, just dont ask for my tax dollars to suport you when you made the choice not to wear one and cant work because you were hurt.

The stupidest one I've ever gotten was a 57 in a 35. That's the only one I've ever gotten...

I once got a ticket for parking my car on my own driveway.
Can you better that?
