Today, I got pulled over for a busted tail light. The officer gave me a warning and told me to fix it. Ten minutes later I was pulled over again for the same busted tail light by the same cop. This time he wrote me a ticket. FML

Today, I drove to my cousin's house so he could help me fix my broken tail light. On the way there, I got pulled over for having a broken tail light. FML

Today, I got pulled over for speeding and got a $200 ticket. After I pulled away, I decided to warn the next car about the cop up ahead by flashing my headlights. The next car was another cop. He didn't appreciate my "help". FML

Today, I was driving home from work when I was pulled over by a cop. She asked why I was being pulled over and figuring she knew I said, "For swerving because of my alcohol problem." I had a broken tail light. FML

Today, I was tailgated by a car with his high beams on for an hour. Any time I changed my speed or lane, he would do the same. I finally managed to get away from him because a cop pulled me over and gave me a speeding ticket. FML

Today, a state trooper ticketed me after learning I was ticketed for the same offense an hour earlier, namely driving with a broken headlight. The good news is that both tickets will be dismissed if I go to court. The bad news is that I'd have to go to different courthouses at the same time of day. FML

Today, I was pulled over by a cop and was fined $210 for making an illegal u-turn. When the cop finished writing my ticket and hopped in his car, he made the same u-turn. FML

Today, I was driving home from work when I saw a cop come up behind me. Nervous about my expired license, I kept checking in my rear view mirror. In turn since I wasn't paying attention, I ran a stop sign. Needless to say the cop pulled me over and gave me 2 tickets. FML

Today, I got a speeding ticket. I wrote a check, and on the way to deposit my fine, I got another one. I put both fines in a box down town, and I turned around to see a cop putting a parking ticket under my wind-shield wiper. FML

How dare you not fix it in those ten minutes? That's painfully irresponsible of you.

That cop is an idiot. You have a prescribed amount of time to comply and provide evidence of compliance. Fight the ticket

Ya, drive away from the police while being given a ticket is called felony flight.

I once got pulled over 3 times, first by a city cop then a state trooper and shortly after that a sheriffs deputy, during a 45 minute drive home from a friends for a headlight that went out just that night. Got a ticket the first time and had to show it each time so that I didn't get another one, what are the odds? That sucks OP but at least they're usually "fix it" tickets so you just have to show in court that you got it fixed and then there's no fine.

It was probably more than 10 minutes and your idiot self just wanted to gain attention to the fact they let you go for it and told you to get where you are going but you didn't listen so you are in the spot you are in now.

Alzheimers, maybe? Lol. It's not really the cop's fault though, he's just doing his job. Next time just get your tail light fixed right away and you won't have that problem.
