I posted this on facebook so some of you have read...but....I got a $290 ticket for passing a work truck doing 10mph in a no passing zone. I was hot, the cop was a dick, I returned the favor.
Well, I went back today and saw the lines on the road are extremely faded parts where you can't even tell, and other parts are not even striped....I plan on taking pictures. Also he wrote the wrong street on the ticket, could I get out on a technicality? Either way 290 for passing a truck going 10 on a very rural road is ridiculous...Im fighting this shit.

If he wrote the wrong street then you should be able to. My brother in law got out of a ticket because the cop wrote the wrong model of car, so I'm thinking the same thing could happen here.

If he wrote the wrong street, I'm pretty sure you'll get out of it. I don't think the faded lines will help you out, but it might...you never know. This seems pretty damn harsh. People do that shit all the time...you pass tractors and shit. Guy must be a dick if he's pulling people over for that shit.

That's the problem with pos is they try fuckin ppl over more then just upholding the law. It's embarrasing almost. Like my friend got a 130 dolla ticket for going 65 in a 55 on a rural road way out in the country. He had complete control of his car and there wasn't another whip within 3 miles. What's the need for a ticket in that situation? Shits stupid..

The problem we have here is that we have another young driver doing something illegal. When will they bring Drivers Education back to our High Schools.
Also, if you are found guilty since it is your first offense you can have it expunged from your record. Another piece of advice is ask for community service at your school preferably in lieu of paying the ticket.

!. Its not my first offense 2. I have a CDL so I cannot take a defensive driving course to get it dismissed.
Last time I got one, I just went in and smooth talked the prosecutor and she threw it out. She was smokin hot.

Motorcycle cops do suck. LOL, Cali I've only been driving for 2 days. I almost had a wreck today, was driving behind someone who was stopped at red light and then it changed to green, I was still cruising behind them at 60 while he is just starting to speed up, so I try to change lanes but this bitch ass redneck next to me starts to speed up. So I have to really gun it and almost run into the soccer mom ahead of me lol. Fun stuff, fun stuff.

I took pictures of where I got the tickets and showed to a friend of mine and he talked to his buddy who is a cop. He said with the pictures I got I should get off. There is nothing that indicates its a no passing zone.
