What SHOULD my line have been to the Cop?
 

(Not too long I promise)

BACKGROUND: Three months ago I get stopped at 10:30 at night for "rolling" through a stop sign.

I was given a ticket for "disobeying a traffic sign or device" for $242.

No kidding, 242 bucks!

So I ask for the trial, and make a case to the judge that the cop was in the lane coming AT me, and he had no angle to see if I had stopped, and that it was 10:30 at night and it was dark.

The judge said he would release his decision by MAIL. I felt good leaving the courtroom.

So this week I get a letter informing me I am "Guilty" and I have to pay $190.


FLASH FORWARD TO TODAY.

I am on vacation, two hours from where I live at a gas station. While I am waiting in line to pay for my sunflower seeds I look back and catch the eyes of that SAME cop who gave me the ticket. (No uniform, he is in a t-shirt and jeans)

He stares at me, then says, "You look familiar, where do I know you from?"

I replied, "You gave me a ticket for supposedly running a stop sign. The judge is making me pay 190 bucks."


"Ouch" was all he said. Then I paid, and walked out.



BEAT: I said nothing cool.
BEAT: It bothered me for the next 100 miles of my trip why I DIDN'T say anything.



BBV, I ask you, if you run into a cop who gave you a ticket later, and he is obviously off duty and out of his jurisdiction, what would have been a cool line I SHOULD have used?

Thanks!

This is what he looked like, kinda. Officer Smith.

You are better off to let it go. You might run into him again. He would never forget if you made a funny, but smart ass comment. This is a case where the fantasy of saying something cool is better than the reality of saying it.

It's obvious that you know that you did indeed run the stop sign and the ticket was justified, so why did you need to say anything to the cop? He was just doing his job and it wasn't personal.

Because everyone thinks they're right and will fight for it no matter how wrong they know they are.

Ask him if he likes apples and then karate kick him.

Re: What SHOULD my line have been to the Cop?
 

obv he's arguing that there should be degrees of traffic violations, and that a rolling stop shouldn't be fined at the same level as driving 20 mph over the speed limit. but maybe not so obvious since you didn't get that.

Sounds like he's getting the same fine for a rolling stop as if he had just decided to ignore the sign completely. There should be degrees.

Re: What SHOULD my line have been to the Cop?
 

I completely blew a stop sign last summer and my ticket was $42.

Re: What SHOULD my line have been to the Cop?
 

Honestly, when he gave me the ticket, I thought it would be for like 90 bucks, and if I plead guilty they would drop it to 50 or so.

When I looked and it was $242, my head nearly assploded.

So I asked at the courthouse, how much would they reduce it if I plead guilty, and the answer, 10 percent.

So it would have gone down to 24 bucks.

That was another reason I took my shot at court.

And yes, the fine was the same as if I blew through a red light at 55 miles an hour.

Ridiculous.

i live in Vancouver canada... so the cop would have already gotten an ear full when he pulled me over... in a side note when i was a kid a cop busted me and some friends of mine for under age drinking... about a week later we seen the same cop out front of a coffee shop off duty... my buddy walked straight up him and pretended to trip and covered him in a slurpee... was the funniest [censored] ive ever seen.. he just sat there with a dumb look on his face.. was pricless..

are you really this dumb

Re: What SHOULD my line have been to the Cop?
 

That's horrendous...

I got pulled over in my garage about six months ago (brag: cop had to catch up with me) and received the following tickets...

* Speeding: 92 in a 55
* Running a red light (not while going 92, mind you)
* Expired inspection sticker
* No front license plate
* No proof of insurance

Went to court and got the prosecutor to drop everything but the speeding... Paid $225, including court costs, and got deferred adjudication on the speeding.

Brag: Would have gotten another speeding ticket, but the cop told me that he didn't know how fast I was going (had exited interstate and was speeding down another street)
Beat: Cop went way out of his way from the service road of the interstate to catch up with me when I thought I was in the free and clear on an overpass
Beat: Got pulled over in my garage
Beat: Posted this just to share... Have nothing to offer OP

Re: What SHOULD my line have been to the Cop?
 

Obv ask cop to pay for sunflower seeds cause you're busto from paying $190 ticket.
