[Ray Zee]

for having a dirty window and a bad wiper you should get a ticket. you caused an accident by your laziness to take care of your car. and reckless driving with bad vision. you caused inconvenience to someone and used up the police time. pay your fine and learn a lesson. and be glad you didnt hurt anyone.

For a message board full of the world's most ethical people, I'm surprised it took someone this long to speak the voice of reason. Take some personal responsibility for what was clearly your fault and could have been avoided with a $10 wiper replacement and some wiper fluid. I hope the cop shows up if you decide to fight it.

The funny thing is all the stuff he mentioned was an attempt to avoid people thinking he just drives badly, but it backfired when you pointed out the obvious.

I hear what yur saying even if you did start a domino effect of sheepish "yeah, I'm gonna be cool and bash the OP" posts, but I wouldn't have been trying to get to work if I was the posterchild of lazy scum. Neither the cop nor the guy I hit was half as upset as me, it sucks, it's my fault, and its a learning experience. I know when I was on the receiving end of such a minor fender bender I wasn't on my cell phone calling the cops before I could say 'fudge'.

This is not the greatest argument I've ever seen. Also, pay your fine.

... he specifically wrote on the ticket "ice covered windshield" which it was certainly not. He also recorded my car as being green when it's black FWIW.

I'm trying to imagine your defense ...

"Your honor, I had a dirty windshield, a crappy driver side wiper -- that combined with the worst sunglare ever, I could not see jack in front of me -- BUT -- there was no ice. Moving on, your honor, I would like to address the issue of the cars color ..."

When I was 18 I was in a car my girlfriend was driving. Long story short, she flipped the car on the highway going 65. She was driving, got thrown out the hatchback, and ended up breaking her back and "broke" her shoulder in 13 places - she was in traction for a month.

About a week later she got a ticket for speeding, and it may have been for reckless driving too.

Real nice cop.
