Today, I was going 73 in a 55 on a country road when an oncoming cop passed me. He pulled a U turn. I turned off the main road and took random turns. I got lost, was 30 minutes late to work, and the cop still found me and gave me two tickets. I had to ask him for directions. 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 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 pulled over and was given a $300 ticket for going 90mph on a 70mph highway. The cop swore he saw my silver car darting in and out of traffic. A couple of minutes earlier that exact car had passed me while I was following the speed limit. FML

Today, a cop rear-ended me. Then I received a ticket from him for driving too far under the speed limit. We were in a school zone. FML

Today, a policeman pulled me over and proceeded to flirt with me. After I had rejected him, he gave me a ticket for "not paying attention to the road". FML

Today, after driving a few hours late at night I decided to entertain the car tailgating me by not letting him pass. After doing this for 3miles, reaching 93MPH, I decided to let the car pass me. When I switched lanes, the car tailgating me light up in red and blue. It was a cop. FML

Today, a cop pulled me over because there was a sign hidden behind a tree that said "No left turn". As I was getting my ticket, I watched as three cars turned left. The cop saw them, laughed, and said, "I guess you're the unlucky one." FML

Today, I was on the way to traffic court for a $340 speeding ticket I'd got. My mother called me and I wasn't paying attention which caused me to speed. Right past a cop. When I told the cop where I was going, he started laughing at me. I now have another $300 ticket. 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, I was driving down a completely empty street when a cop pulled me over for no reason at all. When he approached my window, I began to get defensive until he informed me I was driving the wrong way down a one way street. FML

Yeah you did the right thing, too bad you got caught though. I did the same thing today coming out of school and a cop passed me and i was doing about 20 over. Last time this happened to me i just kept driving and got pulled over and the cop was a bitch to me. Today I turned left instead of my usual right and the cop went the other way..so I got off. FYL

What you do is slow down to 60 (so it's believable), and pull over immediately when he sees you. Then when he walks up to the car, be polite and say "hello officer, I understand I was going 5 over the speed limit once you turned around, and I'm sorry, but does that really usually warrant a ticket?" Then if he says that you were going faster, you just innocently and steadfastly deny it. He has no way of proving it, and even if he said he radar'd it, he would be lying. He knows he would lose in court, and you can tell him "I respect you, officer, but if I got a ticket for 5 over, I would have to appeal it; I've always been a very responsible driver, sir. And since I know I wasn't going faster than 60, may I inquire as to if you have proof you radar'd me going faster, or at least your word?" He will know that he has no chance in court, and he will issue you a warning and then drive off to get his next victim. As to you: That only works if you have a REALLY fast car, and you are a REALLY good driver, and it is a crowded place with lots of turns.
