Whats the stupidest thing you have gotten a ticket for?

The only ticket i got so far was a failure to maintane lane, i was turning right onto crogan st. going towards mall of ga and i went to the left lane because i had to make a left at the traffic light which was about 200 yards away and the cop on the motorcycle just steps infront of me onto the street and tells me to turn left onto the parking lot and says im giving you a ticket for failure to maintain lane cause we had to many accidents at that intersection. so now cause of that stupid $84 ticket my insurance went up $2,000 a year. as far as i heard so far is that, what i did was a improper lane change not a failure to maintain lane?

The "stupidest" thing I have ever gotten a ticket for was probably the movie Kung Pow... that was a stupid fuccing movie...

No stupid tickets here, all of them have been fairly well deserved haha.

Not to mention I got it renewed not 9 hours after receiving the ticket.

Not to be a **** or anything, but if a cops wants to give you a ticket, he will. How many cops you hear about harrassing people? TOO MANY. How many of them do you see giving bull**** tickets, take you for example? ALOT. But since you got it taken care of the same day, a good judge, will most likely throw it out of the court and tell you to have a good day.

I think the dumbest one I got was when I rolled a stop and I made up some **** about my brakes being new and I'm not used to them since I don't ever drive the car, so the officer writes me a "unsafe vehicle" and tells me to call a tow truck. And the thing is I was right outside my neigbhorhood, literally one minute away from my house. Luckily, my dad owns a tow truck, hahaha. But yeah I'm going to court for that ticket next month, so hopefully it'll get thrown out.

You're encouraged to not break laws, but you did and you got ticketed for doing so. Trying to say that cop is the one in the wrong is comical at best when you're the one that broke the law and even admit to doing so, yet you think you have a chance at getting it dropped :jerkit:

And that "any decently fair judge" will drop it... LOL! That's good.

WTF?!?!?! I don't give a damn if the officer was right to give me a ticket! It was an unreasonable citation and I'm going to fight it because I KNOW I have a chance of getting it dropped! I've known people to get citations for nearly the exact same thing (less than 30 days expired registration) and if you present a renewed registration they'll generally let you go free and clear. I've watched it happen numerous times in Fulton Co. and Walton Co. courts (I've had three speeding tickets so I've spent some time in them...so shoot me). Not to mention I received SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS FROM A DEKALB COUNTY OFFICER on how to have the ticket dismissed. I got the ticket in Dekalb so I would say his advice is applicable. Stop calling me out on **** you have no idea about. Thank you.

Feels good to do that every once in awhile. :bump:
