Default Re: Cops Suck

Ok, if I was the driver I wouldn't expect anyone to pay me half so, no, I wouldn't offer to pay half either.
I didn't ask my friend to roll the stop sign, just give me a ride.

First off, your title sucks, given the scenario you wrote about. Second, you sound more ticked about the amount of the ticket than the fact that you got one, however, in all likelihood the LEO had no latitude in the amount. If it was me I'd have given probably you a ticket too (I'm not a LEO) since IMO the penalties for excessive speeders, tailgaters, and stop sign/light runners should be raised to the point where they actually become a deterrant. Don't get me started on drunk drivers.

So, why don't you address the question of whether or not you think it would be a good gesture for him to pay half the ticket.

Getting a ticket for a moving violation like rolling through a stop sign flat out blows, I don't care what anyone says. People need to open their eyes and lighten up.
