I got pulled over by an angry cop who clearly had nothing better to do with his time. I got a careless driving ticket ($900) because some moron decides not to check his blind spots when switching lanes, almost hits my car, and because I swerve out of his way to avoid an accident, I'm the one getting the ticket. Go figure.
Yeah, it sucks how the system works sometimes. Now I've had my fair share of speeding tickets (nearly all were less than 15 over), but whenever I see some punk racing down the road in his suped-up honda with an ugly spoiler and doing at least 80, I can't help but wonder where the cops are then? Sure, I was in a hurry because I was late for work, but who is more of a danger to those around him? Me or the idiot young twerp who thinks he should be in the next Fast and the Furious movie?

If they have a choice between the family sedan and the sports car covered in drifting and track stickers, guess who they'll be pulling over?
I can certainly relate to this. Since I started driving in 1998, these have been vehicles I've driven:

- brown Buick oldsmobile Lordknows how old
- black Chevy Blazer
- sky blue Chevy Silverado
- tan Chevy Cavalier
- blue Astro van
- white Chevy Venture van

...out of those 6 cars, which do you think I got the most tickets in? The black SUV and the tiny car. And believe me, I've sped over the limit equally in all of them.
