OT: Ticket, SOB Options

[StratPlayer]

F*** I just got a ticket from a worm of a motorcycle cop. He charged me with an improper turn... What sucks is I didn't make an improper turn. Sure everyone says they didn't do it. I find out the ticket is for 92 bucks. Then I find out what kind of crap one has to go throught to fight this ticket. They say, go to a driving class for and hour and no points will be against your license. Great, but cough up 50 bucks for the class and you still have to plead guilty to the charge. F**** EXTORTION.

I've seen this cop working this same area all the time. Its not like I didn't know he was there. So you think I'm going to give this worm a reason to pull me over. I guess he doesn't need one, he can always dream one up.

I feel ripped off. The system knows most people won't fight the charge because of the cost involved in fighting the charge. So they get away with extorting money from the public.

Just venting, I'm still always amazed how a 5'8 160 pounder can put on a uniform and suddenly he's 6'10 and 300 lbs.


EXTORTION

btw: The cop wasn't even on his motorcyle, he was standing on the sidewalk. Must not like my 914. He came out on the street to pull me over.

cops have more important things to do then teach us how to drive correctly.  I don't beleive for a single second that you  where targeted because you drive a 30+ year old sports car.....trust me you FU now be a man and deal with it.....

Just an old cops opinion..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

What I think is funny is when someone makes an improper turn and doesn't even know WTF he did...no offence ...but you did it, now you best figure out WTF you did so you don't do it again.

Appreciate your opinion. Funny thing is how come the 2 cars in front on me didn't get ticketed... Oh I know cops get to pick an choose. Lets face it this cop gave me a cheap shot,,, I haven't have a ticket in over 30 years, he knew that when he checked my license. It wasn't like I came flying around the turn and drove like I was at a track. I was behind 2 other cars on that turn. I waited till the turn was complete and then I signaled to merge right into the far right lane. Once I turned into that lane he came out from between to parked cars to pull me over. This cop is just a prick, bottom line, so I didn't do it. I see cops making improper turns everyday. This was a cheap shot no matter what anyone says you'll never convince me otherwise.

Cops have better things to do than take cheap shots at the public and extort money from them cause the have a so called quota and its the end of the month. I couldn't help but think to myself as he was walking back to his paperwork to ticket me that he looked just like a nazi storm trooper in that uniform he was wearing.

I will not be contributing to the policemans ball.
