Well I haven't been driving for too long and all the tickets I've received have been parking and silly stuff; like not having the current insurance card so I just mailed the current one and the ticket was taken care of. BUT today was a shit of a day, yesterday night I go for drinks at a cafe. I got this POS car and thank god I didn't leave it in front of the cafe because when I went to leave it didn't start -- and that would've been embarrassing with all those people watching!. Come morning I have till 830 to move the car before cleaning/cops come through to give tickets.
Basically the starter of the car was toast, my father thinks its the battery so we spend a good 20 minutes charging to no avail. THEN he decides he'll push my car with his to get us to the garage. Mind you the car I currently drive is a crown victoria (former yellow cab) and I couldn't turn the wheel for my life -- I quickly changed my mind on the first turn and made it to the next block, all the while hes yelling at me saying we should've gone to the garage which is 12 streets and 7 avenues away!!
Now I convince my mechanic friend to come out, he arrives just as two cops stroll by and they're cool and don't give us any problems even though it's street cleaning on that side. We lift the car while he bangs away at the starter, and nothing. The cops walk by and stare from across the street, FINALLY after one last bang the starter turns and we got lift off!
NOW we go to a shop to buy a new starter, and of course there's no way I'm shutting off the car. I leave it at the parking spot which is IN FRONT OF the shop. Right then a cop car, the ford explorer types comes and stops behind my car. The driving officer leaves his 3 buddies and walks out toward my drivers side and is staring into my car as I get there. He asks for my license so I give it and he gets into his car.
After waiting for a 15 he comes back with a pink slip saying how my superiors in the car wanted to give you a bunch of tickets, you have 6 violations, wreckless endangerment, cracked windshield, blocking traffic, bla bla bla but I managed to cut that down to one ticket: "Leaving vehicle running unattended" "It's not an expensive fine but you have to appear in court" OKay thank you officer, and I leave.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I'm 5 steps away from my car and he's gotta ruin my day! Granted my windshield does have a small crack but COMEE ONNN! I was in and out of the store in a flash and RIGHT as the cops pulled up behind me I was by my car.
I have to go to a CRIMINAL COURT, and I can't even read this guy's handwriting. And If I don't show up to court they'll put out an arrest warrant on me. All cause I parked with my keys in the car. Any tips on dealing with judges? I found some info online saying you can leave your car unattended for 3 minutes but If I bring that out what's to say the judge doesn't bug out thinking I'm trying to outsmart him! Should I just plead guilty and take the fine and get it over with? Either way I have to go to court and If I plead not guilty that means more court dates!
If only I can be a dt....
|
How much is the ticket? Is the amount worth spending a couple hours at court pleading not guilty? If so just plead not guilty, some cops are just pure jackasses.
"If only I can be a dt ..." I love it lol

that fucking sucks 
do you live in Cali?

a few years ago, i got a ticket for a carnival at my school. fuck it was terrible lol
|
Lawyer up, don't talk to the police!!!
|
1 speeding ticket and 2-3 parking tickets. All together I'd say about $200.
|
My wife was driving my car died at a stop sign(I'm trying to teach her how to drive a manual), came to a complete stop restarted my car and went, got pulled over and the cop said the stop didn't count because my car was "two to three feet behind the line"(direct quote from the officer) so he proceeded to give me a near $400 ticket for running a stop sign. I'm currently in the process of contesting it.
|
I'm in NYC - not sure how much the ticket is, it's a summons so the judge will lay down the punishment. It's either 250 bucks or like 20. If it's 20 that's no big deal but still the fact that I have to go all the way to court for nonsense. Irrelevant I feel you man! Cops are taking away our freedom!
Look at kenpachi, he can't even go to a carnival without police interference!

Cops stopped me when I was TEST driving a VR RX-8 ... I guess it's true that if you drive 10 over with a Corolla cops won't stop you but if you drive 10 over with a sports car they will stop you ...

I had a TERRIBLE experience being ticketed my sophomore year as an undergrad.
For those who don't know, Halloween weekend at UCSB is pure insanity. I've never seen so much partying in such a condensed place anywhere. Anyway, I lived with 8 other guys in a large house and one of my house mates allowed his younger, female cousin and her three friends to stay with us for the weekend. Some were 18, some were almost 18, and all were seniors in high school. Us guys were all either 19 or 20 at the time.
It all started when I got off of work around ~9pm ready to get dressed up, start drinking, and head to Del Playa Street (where everybody walks around in costume). So I get home, and tons of people are over and everybody is already plastered out of their minds, including these girls. I walk in the house, say my "hellos" and sit down on the couch for a second to watch Sportscenter. Meanwhile, two of the girls walk outside, one of which is 17, with beers in their hands. I've been home all of three minutes when I see the police roll up and sit these girls down on the curb. Everybody in the house freaks out and is wondering what the hell is going to happen as we see them talking/crying to the police. About five minutes later the police officer comes to the door.
Here's where it went sour. Nobody else in the house was sober and would have been able to talk to the officer reasonably. Being the responsible one and expecting the officer to tell me that I need to make sure these drunk girls stay inside, I answered the door. BIG MISTAKE.
As soon as I open the door, he says: "Get the other girls out here right now or you're going to jail." The girls hear this from the back room and jump out the window and over the back yard fence because they were drunken idiots. I come back and tell him that I can't find them because they fucking jumped over a fence. So he calls for backup and four police cars roll up and they chase these girls down. They all get sat down in front of the house on the curb and I have to explain to the police officer why these girls were walking around outside drunk, and that I had no idea because I had JUST gotten home from work.
Anyway, he hands me a ticket for "furnishing alcohol to a minor," which as I've since learned, was a punishment initially created to punish liquor stores and bars that sell booze to underage kids. It's considered a serious misdemeanor and comes with a $3000+ fine AND a mandatory court appearance... I asked how it made any fucking sense to give that to me and he said: "You assumed responsibility over anything illegal by answering the door."
So I go to court where I'm represented by a public defender because I don't have jack shit for money as a college student. Initially the judge keeps the punishment as is. After the public defender talks to the DA, I get off with an infraction instead of a misdemeanor, a $500 fine, I have to attend 5 AA meetings, and I'm enrolled in the "Youth Offender" program.
The worst part was that the girls refused to help out and their parents blamed me even though I had neither bought nor given them any alcohol. It was such fucking bullshit. My buddy pitched in for the fine, but going to AA meetings is a terrible way to spend your Friday nights...

I heard on the news the other day, that in my city, you get a 250 euro fine for feeding street cats.
|
i got banned on TL for calling someone who was asking for help in the strategy section a "newbie."
edit: it was 2 day permaban, then i got mad for this unfair ban and said a bad thing about the guy who did it in the IRC channel, then some random mod i don't even know and who was not even involved lengthened it to a week out of his own inclination because some kid from IRC i don't even know and was not involved decided it would be awesome to take the effort to squeal on me
=(

Parking ticket in New York for 230~ bucks while I was at a CS tournament. Too close to a fire hydrant. Here is a picture for reference.
It was bullshit. I lived in Rhode Island at the time which is like 4 hours away. Then some law savvy friend told me you basically never win fighting against public endangerment stuff. All the help the other 4 members of my team offerered never came. Still waiting for that check... Fuckers.

250 parking ticket for parking on a snow emergency route before any snow even began to fall.
Thanks dc government.
Oh wait also 200 dollars while my car was stolen.
Thanks dc goverment. Youll notice my car is parked illegally but not that its smashed up and stolen.

Got a $280 ticket for failing to come to a complete stop at a stop sign. Was completely absurd. The cop who pulled me over had been waiting outside a bar to pull over drunk drivers and I guess he was having a slow night. I had a clear view all the way down left side of the street for my right hand turn for probably 20 metres before I hit the intersection. I was probably going 1km/h as I turned. Asshole got me on a technicality when I was exercising 100% safe driving.
|
i bet u wish it was a meter maid this time xD. i watch parking wars so often love that show and how much shit a meter maid has to take lol. So harsh <3 meter maid powa!
|
rofl what prices do you have in the usa? 2-3 years ago i always parked my car in non parking zones, because there were not enough park slots at my school and i was to lazy to stand up earlier and that was only 10-25€ per ticket each time. and for driving to fast (20km/h more than allowed) only 15€.

$120 ticket for wearing headphones while riding my bike. campus PD is lame
|
I got pulled over 2 months into having my license. Granted, I was driving too fast (83 in a 65 zone), but it was the first beautiful day of spring, and I was able to drive my new(old) 1987 BMW 325i with the windows down and the sun roof open. I wasn't even the only one going that fast, I was in a pack of 3 or 4 other cars, but I got picked out probably cuz my car was all shiny and such. Got a $300 ticket for going 18 over the speed limit. Damn Connecticut and its super strict driving laws...
|
I bought a ticket to an Opeth concert once.
Don't worry, I left after Dark Tranquillity, so it's fine.

I've only gotten one ticket and I deserved it as I was speeding. 131 in 110 but he dropped it to 120. I think it was like $60. No big deal.
I also got pulled over in Korea and had to take a breathalizer. LOL
Oh I just realized I got a ticket for parking in Mikeymoo's lot without signing in on his sheet. Like I literally just opened the letter 20 minutes ago. I sent an email saying I'm not paying it though since it's not a government ticket.

well, thankfully at the time I didn't actually get a ticked for this:
was pulled over for speeding (although I was sitting at a red light at the time [did get a ticket for that]) officer tells me that its ILLEGAL to have ipod headphones in while driving.. I'm like wtf?? u serious!?
"Yep, it's illegal to have both ears covered or filled"..
I didn't even have 'em on at the time, but i'm sure he prolly didn't believe that. But ya, got a ticket for speeding like 10 over, for like 5 seconds, before I came up to a red light.. and he red-lights me as im turning left from the red light...
dumb if u ask me..

So you were going fast, you acknowledge you were going fast, and you're still mad? If you get a ticket and you deserve it don't complain about how your friend didn't get one. You deserve that fine if you've been driving for 2 months and are going 18 over.

I got a ticket for passing through a green light... Biggest waste of time in my life having to go to court to say that the light was green won my cause. :O
|
I was riding my quad on some trails under high tension power lines with two friends. Cops came and gave us all tickets "Riding on private property without written permission."
One friend talked to the solicitor, he got the fine waved, but pleaded guilty. My other friend just paid the ticket it was something like $50.
I went before the judge. He agreed to reduce the charges against me to "Failure to follow the rules." The fine for that was $75 (more then if I had just paid it!).
I'd say a ticket for failure to follow the rules is about the most asinine.
I just got a warning for getting in a turn lane to early. Traffic was backed up and only moved about 4 car lengths a light cycle. After 3 cycles of waiting I was close enough to see the light, so I got in the turn lane. Only time I could truly tell the cop I had no clue why he pulled me over. That would be the winner but it wasn't a ticket.

Not Driving, but you asked "stupidest ticket"...
I went to visit my friend via Metrolink in LA... and we went to take the subway back to his house. 40$ ticket for drinking a Dr.Pepper on the platform. Yes... I had the nerd rage.

Once i was passing someone in an 80 that turned into a 60 right after i passed the guy. Got a $100 ticket for that shit.

Well this may not be the stupidest ticket, more like the stupidest person to get a ticket but anyway here it go's. Recently I moved to Arizona to live in "the nerd house",basically EG's sc2 house. Anyways I was traveling back to California to drop off my dad's truck and get my car. I started the drive at 4 am without sleeping the whole day "yea im fucking retarded" . So anyways im driving down the 60 which turns into the I-10 , the highway that go's straight to LA when i start seeing all these flashes while im driving. I kinda think nothing of it at first, maby im just tired and seeing things, WRONG. I had never seen those god damn camera's on the side of the road that give you fucking speeding ticket's before because they never had them in California, or at least anywhere where I had lived my entire life, so anyways to make a long story short I got 4 speeding tickets in like a 4 mile area before I noticed, and yea I kinda drive fast at 4 am when their are no cars around so I was going about 15 miles over the limit on all of them.

Haven't had a stupid ticket yet. Parked on the street where a permit is required next to a restaurant I was eating at in Newport, RI in the summer (mad crowded town) because the ticket was twice the price of real parking and I was gonna get lost as shit if i went searching for a lot. Didn't regret it lol.
Nothing else yet.

Missouri Highway Patrolman gave me a ticket for totaling my Blazer my junior year in HS.
"Unsafe lane change" for losing control and going off the road, somewhere around 70 or 90 bucks.
I don't even know where to start with this one, but it doesn't matter. The most retarded part was as part of my sentence reduction I had to attend a Defensive Driving course, which really makes sense seeing as I was totally alone on the road that night at midnight -_-

LOL good stuff, good stuff
my most memorable ticket was for a lane violation while improper passing another vehicle with 5 retards in it right after the rotary exit in heavy rain conditions going uphill
was driving a 1986 z28, no inspection sticker, no seatbelt, no blinker
cop said it was something like 400 r 500$ for everything but i told him those guys were stoners and they kept braking in front of me and gave me a finger rofl. So he warned me not to road rage no matter how bad those ppl are and lowered it to 150$
good times

ROFL did they add them up? how much is this

It's okay. Our town, due to state budget cut, is trying to ticket random Asians for random reasons just because they are Asian.
|
Never got a ticket, but I got a verbal warning, and a written warning. The verbal warning I was FOLLOWING a MD state trooper. He was going 65 mph and I was following at approximately the same speed. (A friend had told me it was legal to go the same speed as a police officer if you're behind them, and me having been a stupid 16 year old new driver, I believed him.) Anyway the trooper pulls over on the side of the road, and then follows me as I drive past, and then pulls me over and then yells at me, and then basically tells me to GTFO before giving me a yellow piece of paper and leaving....
The second time I got really lucky. I was going 58 in a 40 mph zone, went right past a speed trap, and the cop pulled me over. He told me that he was only going to give me a written warning because apparently when he was the same age as me, he got pulled over on the same road for going the same speed.

Driving 90km/h on a 3 lane divided highway without any construction in sight got me a $200 ticket once for speeding in a construction zone.

I did 110 in a 55 zone with my old Nissan 240sx with an sr20det blacktop engine (illegal engine from japan) while racing a red, undercover,MUSTANG cop car that was tailgating me. I thought he wanted to race and then he turned on his light which were inside the care on the top portion of my windshield... That sucked, had to sell the car because he sent me to state ref and I was forced to non-op it.

Took a piss at the entrance door of a bank downtown in my hometown shitfaced at 03am, while I am taking a piss the cops roll by and pick me up. Since I was so shitfaced I spent the night in the "drunken arrest" and got a 2k NOK (about 300$) fine for public urination and even had a caricature picture drawn of me for a small notice in the local news paper Nordlys with the text "dyre dråper som svir på pungen"
|
one time I was at a double intersection at 2 in the morning and the light was out. What I'm referring to is where a street is split in two because the city decided to put a freaking bike/walkway in the middle of the road. So it's a flashing red light I stop and then I go on my way...turns out I didn't stop for the second light which was 10feet after the first flashing red. Okay stupid mistake but whatever. That's what I though until I found out the ticket was 500 dollars.

So I was driving like you do with cars then I saw this ambulance coming at me with its siren on and lights flashing. So you know, I pull over. Then I get a ticket from a cop for failure to stay in lane.

Dude, last Fall I did the exact same thing and the cop insisted that I rolled through the stop, and that cost me $90!
BTW $400 for that and I would be screaming imba!

The stupidest ticket I ever got was for cycling without my light on.
Normally the fine is 20 euro's, but because I was under 16 it was reduced by half, and they were only checking for the front light (not the back light, wtf) so the fine was reduced by half again.
Ended up with a 5 euro ticket, what the hell..

dumbest ticket i got was when i parked on a hill and my wheels weren't "turned" enough... (so to prevent sliding i guess)... so dumb...

dyre dråper som svir på pungen = "precious drops of burning on scrotum" according to Google Translate. Seriously?

i myself havent gotten one but my friend just got his
apparently he was driving from hsi house to our community college (literally a 1 min drive. i like like 2 mins away from it and i walk)
the roads connects to the highway and there's no speed limit sign to speak of. he goes bout 55 (he claims) and get hit with a ticket despite just driving 1 min to our community college and clearly other cars driving the same speed as him
NOW heres the funny/sad part
as hes pulled over the officer says "do u know y im pulling u over?". my friend replies" for not wearing my seatbelt". the officer goes "no, but thanks for telling me"
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
anyway hes takign this to court since his claim that there is no speed limit sign is pretty legit

This didn't happen to me, but when I was in the Marines it happened to one of my guys.
He goes home on leave to Texas, goes out to drink with a bunch of his buddies.
They leave him at the bar and go home, leaving him by himself at the bar. When he realizes this at like 1am, he decides that rather than spend money on a cab or wake someone up to come get him, he just goes to sleep in his car and figures he'll catch a ride with someone in the morning.
So he's knocked out IN HIS BACK SEAT, when a cop comes by wakes him up, gives him a DUI.
A fucking DUI for trying to do the right thing and not driving home drunk. And of course the military being what it is, they gave him no sympathy and took his rank, too.

Did he have his keys in the ignition? or is it completely irrelevant?

As I understand it he was sleeping in the back seat with the keys on the floor so he wasn't sleeping on them. I don't think that was factored in though; apparently they give DUIs to drunk people in cars with keys period. He couldn't go back to contest it because he was on leave from California and had to be back at work.

That reminds me, I used to live in this apartment complex in San Diego overlooking the freeway, so you had to drive up this steep road to get to it. The police would come by every single morning before people left for work and ticket everyone that parked on the hill and didn't turn their wheels to the curb. They'd seriously write like 5-10 $50 tickets every single day. Happened to us once, except we stayed at home the day after parking there and had two $50 tickets when we went out there (about 28 hours after parking there) and noticed. Contested it and was denied.

My only tickets so far have been for speeding 9kms over the limit, twice.

Well this may not be the stupidest ticket, more like the stupidest person to get a ticket but anyway here it go's. Recently I moved to Arizona to live in "the nerd house",basically EG's sc2 house. Anyways I was traveling back to California to drop off my dad's truck and get my car. I started the drive at 4 am without sleeping the whole day "yea im fucking retarded" . So anyways im driving down the 60 which turns into the I-10 , the highway that go's straight to LA when i start seeing all these flashes while im driving. I kinda think nothing of it at first, maby im just tired and seeing things, WRONG. I had never seen those god damn camera's on the side of the road that give you fucking speeding ticket's before because they never had them in California, or at least anywhere where I had lived my entire life, so anyways to make a long story short I got 4 speeding tickets in like a 4 mile area before I noticed, and yea I kinda drive fast at 4 am when their are no cars around so I was going about 15 miles over the limit on all of them.

I wasn't even the only one going that fast, I was in a pack of 3 or 4 other cars, but I got picked out probably cuz my car was all shiny and such. Got a $300 ticket for going 18 over the speed limit. Damn Connecticut and its super strict driving laws... So you were going fast, you acknowledge you were going fast, and you're still mad? If you get a ticket and you deserve it don't complain about how your friend didn't get one. You deserve that fine if you've been driving for 2 months and are going 18 over.
I'm not mad I got the ticket. I did totally deserve it. $300 just seemed a little overkill to me.

speeding, going 90 in a 65

Walked in between subway cars once just to get one car ahead because i wanna catch a bus and not get caught up behind people. As soon as i get to the last car, two undercover cops pull me off the train, keep me waiting while two more trains passed by. it was 11pm after school and work, and i just asked them to let me go and ill accept a fine, so they throw a $100 dollar ticket at me for a first offense in ANYTHING, never gotten anything before. wtf.

pulled over 8 times, 7 verbal warnings, one ticket for seat belt violation, still gotta pay that one...

Actually he could fight the shit out of that because unless the keys are in the ignition the person doesn't have actual control of the vehicle.
I hate cops that try to get people on "technicalities." Most of the time the people that do that are the hard working people you don't try to fuck with. If you're an asshole that's been arrested 15 times I'm going to give you every ticket violation that I can think of that qualifies...but if you're just a normal person that acts with respect I almost always give them warnings.
When it comes to people sleeping in cars...I would suggest never ever doing it. States are all hardcore on DUI and most police stations have task forces JUST for DUI's. If you MUST sleep in your car you should make sure your keys are in the trunk or something..somewhere completely away from you and the ignition.

Probably the ticket I was most pissed about was a few months ago.
I was going to a party in the 110's and Adam Clayton Powell in New York, and the door to the building was locked. I called up with the building intercom thing, but the guy having the party didn't answer. I called my friend who was already up there, and couldn't reach him. I called a couple of more people, and finally got someone who said they'd be down in a few minutes. What I hadn't noticed was that a cop was watching me this entire time.
As soon as I put my phone away, he got out of his car, and walked over. He then proceeded to inform me that I was loitering, handed me a ticket, and told me to leave the area... The ticket was $120. One hundred twenty fucking dollars for standing outside a building...

wtf you can get ticketed for standing infront of a building too long wtf
how is that legal

Never gotten a fine for anything. I've been stopped several times while riding my bike without lights on and alcohol with me when I was younger than 18. Sometimes they just waved their finger at me and laughed if I got off my bike. Other times they stopped me and told me that it's illegal and that I would get a fine the next time.
For the alcohol, they just poured it out and made jokes saying "I guess you don't know who gave you these beers, huh?". One time they even only took half of it from me and my friends and said they were sorry for ruining our night, but that they had to do it lol.
Cops have always been awesome to me. Maybe because I never fuck with them when they stop me or because I grew up in a small town where the policemen don't want to get known as being assholes.

Well I haven't been driving for too long and all the tickets I've received have been parking and silly stuff; like not having the current insurance card so I just mailed the current one and the ticket was taken care of. BUT today was a shit of a day, yesterday night I go for drinks at a cafe. I got this POS car and thank god I didn't leave it in front of the cafe because when I went to leave it didn't start -- and that would've been embarrassing with all those people watching!. Come morning I have till 830 to move the car before cleaning/cops come through to give tickets.
Basically the starter of the car was toast, my father thinks its the battery so we spend a good 20 minutes charging to no avail. THEN he decides he'll push my car with his to get us to the garage. Mind you the car I currently drive is a crown victoria (former yellow cab) and I couldn't turn the wheel for my life -- I quickly changed my mind on the first turn and made it to the next block, all the while hes yelling at me saying we should've gone to the garage which is 12 streets and 7 avenues away!!
Now I convince my mechanic friend to come out, he arrives just as two cops stroll by and they're cool and don't give us any problems even though it's street cleaning on that side. We lift the car while he bangs away at the starter, and nothing. The cops walk by and stare from across the street, FINALLY after one last bang the starter turns and we got lift off!
NOW we go to a shop to buy a new starter, and of course there's no way I'm shutting off the car. I leave it at the parking spot which is IN FRONT OF the shop. Right then a cop car, the ford explorer types comes and stops behind my car. The driving officer leaves his 3 buddies and walks out toward my drivers side and is staring into my car as I get there. He asks for my license so I give it and he gets into his car.
After waiting for a 15 he comes back with a pink slip saying how my superiors in the car wanted to give you a bunch of tickets, you have 6 violations, wreckless endangerment, cracked windshield, blocking traffic, bla bla bla but I managed to cut that down to one ticket: "Leaving vehicle running unattended" "It's not an expensive fine but you have to appear in court" OKay thank you officer, and I leave.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I'm 5 steps away from my car and he's gotta ruin my day! Granted my windshield does have a small crack but COMEE ONNN! I was in and out of the store in a flash and RIGHT as the cops pulled up behind me I was by my car.
I have to go to a CRIMINAL COURT, and I can't even read this guy's handwriting. And If I don't show up to court they'll put out an arrest warrant on me. All cause I parked with my keys in the car. Any tips on dealing with judges? I found some info online saying you can leave your car unattended for 3 minutes but If I bring that out what's to say the judge doesn't bug out thinking I'm trying to outsmart him! Should I just plead guilty and take the fine and get it over with? Either way I have to go to court and If I plead not guilty that means more court dates!
If only I can be a dt....
You could have saved yourself trouble had you just took a screwdriver or something metal (use cloth/shirt to hold one end) and touch your starter's 2 coils together underneath the car... just saying... I say this b/c if you had a starter problem, banging sometimes gets it unstuck.. but since there were 2 of you.. you could have had one start while the other touched the coils together

I never got a stupid ticket before but my dad has got some messed up tickets. he's a taxi driver and there's only certain locations that he's allowed to take passengers. one time someone asked if my dad can take him to the hospital. at the time my dad dropped off a passenger at a place where he can't take new passengers. being a good man that he is, my dad of course agreed, and i don't see how someone can refuse such a request. welp, it turned out to be an undercover cop and my dad got ticketed for it. seriously, they should change their destination to somewhere other than the hospital, i don't think anyone would refuse if somebody asked them to take them to a hospital. what if it was an emergency?

$40 Ticket. I was at my school and was in the student parking lot. I was turning out and then I remembered I had left my book in my classroom. I parked in the visitor's parking spot that says 45 minutes on it as it was closer to my classroom and got my book. I come back 10 minutes later with a $40 dollar ticket on my windshield and was pissed off. Apparently it's against the rules for students to park there.

"Making it easier" for people to commit crimes to punish people because they think it will have some effect of prevention on others is fucking retarded TBH. I'd be so pissed if I were your dad. That shit should be illegal. Undercover agents shouldn't exist either. What stops them from being heavily corrupt? Seriously. Fuck that shit.

stupidest ticket i ever got. Parked outside my college and when i came out for morning tea i noticed a ticket on it, figured there was nothing more i could do about it so went back inside. (no parking around the area) When i came back for lunch. There were 4 MORE TICKETS ON THE WINDSHIELD. (all from the same ticketing officer) Close to $250 in tickets thanks!

got a ticket for wearing both headphones when i wasnt even listening to music i just forgot to take them out. It was 116$. The reason why the cop noticed too, was because I was stopped at a left turn light and I accidentally flipped my wipers when I went for the turn signal and the stupid ipod headphones are white (high contrast) to me and the rest of the car.
Really shitty luck imo. and fuck apple, once again. White headphones ftl.

this one time i got a ticket for speeding on my way to mcdonalds from school. i got so pissed that i sped back to school and got another speeding from the same officer.

you think thats something, over here you can buy liquor if you are 12 years old and no one cares, and the cops have caught us outside with booze a million times while underage and they just tell us to move to some place else with our booze, they never took it from us.

I've only ever gotten one ticket. I was driving through Pennsylvania to New York and I was going 70. It was a two line tollway and I was on the left lane while a line of maybe six or so trucks were packed tightly on my right. Suddenly a car going who knows how fast pulls up right behind me and starts flashing his lights. Having been driving for about six hours straight at that point I decide to move over. Unfortunately, there were still two more trucks ahead in the lane over. Not wanting to be wedged between two trucks and wanting to quickly get out of the way I speed up a bit and switch lanes and get in front of the trucks. The car zips by me and I decide to switch lanes over to my left because the car in front of me was going really slow. At this point I'm still rolling on around 80. I switch over to the left lane and start slowing down to 65 the speed limit. Right then and there I see flashing lights behind me and lo and behold I get ticketed for going 81 in a 65 mph zone. I nearly made it seven years without a ticket.

I received a ticket, which I fought and won against, for urinating in the woods. I was driving through my home state of NH, headed to Maine. The road was barren and long, and isolated. I needed to piss and there was no gas station or store of any type and I hadn't seen one for an hour. No biggie, I'll just pull over, lock the car and walk 10 or so minutes into the woods to leak. Pretty standard human operating procedure.
So I'm pissing, I've walked so far into the woods I cannot even SEE the road, or my car. I'm in the middle of no where. Literally I can't see a house, road or any other civilization marking. I'm about halfway through my piss and I hear a 'ahem' behind me which scares the sh*t out of me because I'm in the woods. I turn around and there's an NH state trooper watching me piss. Awesome.
He says he's writing me a ticket for indecent exposure and then said he had a right to search my car if he wanted, which he may or may not have, I don't know. I told him go for it, there wasn't anything in there except dog hair and soda bottles.
I showed up to court prepared to show a judge where I was exactly using a map and explain what I was doing, which would've been hilarious, but as usual in NH, the cop didn't show and I had the ticket wiped clean.
Still, pretty gross.

I had a TERRIBLE experience being ticketed my sophomore year as an undergrad.
For those who don't know, Halloween weekend at UCSB is pure insanity. I've never seen so much partying in such a condensed place anywhere. Anyway, I lived with 8 other guys in a large house and one of my house mates allowed his younger, female cousin and her three friends to stay with us for the weekend. Some were 18, some were almost 18, and all were seniors in high school. Us guys were all either 19 or 20 at the time.
It all started when I got off of work around ~9pm ready to get dressed up, start drinking, and head to Del Playa Street (where everybody walks around in costume). So I get home, and tons of people are over and everybody is already plastered out of their minds, including these girls. I walk in the house, say my "hellos" and sit down on the couch for a second to watch Sportscenter. Meanwhile, two of the girls walk outside, one of which is 17, with beers in their hands. I've been home all of three minutes when I see the police roll up and sit these girls down on the curb. Everybody in the house freaks out and is wondering what the hell is going to happen as we see them talking/crying to the police. About five minutes later the police officer comes to the door.
Here's where it went sour. Nobody else in the house was sober and would have been able to talk to the officer reasonably. Being the responsible one and expecting the officer to tell me that I need to make sure these drunk girls stay inside, I answered the door. BIG MISTAKE.
As soon as I open the door, he says: "Get the other girls out here right now or you're going to jail." The girls hear this from the back room and jump out the window and over the back yard fence because they were drunken idiots. I come back and tell him that I can't find them because they fucking jumped over a fence. So he calls for backup and four police cars roll up and they chase these girls down. They all get sat down in front of the house on the curb and I have to explain to the police officer why these girls were walking around outside drunk, and that I had no idea because I had JUST gotten home from work.
Anyway, he hands me a ticket for "furnishing alcohol to a minor," which as I've since learned, was a punishment initially created to punish liquor stores and bars that sell booze to underage kids. It's considered a serious misdemeanor and comes with a $3000+ fine AND a mandatory court appearance... I asked how it made any fucking sense to give that to me and he said: "You assumed responsibility over anything illegal by answering the door."
So I go to court where I'm represented by a public defender because I don't have jack shit for money as a college student. Initially the judge keeps the punishment as is. After the public defender talks to the DA, I get off with an infraction instead of a misdemeanor, a $500 fine, I have to attend 5 AA meetings, and I'm enrolled in the "Youth Offender" program.
The worst part was that the girls refused to help out and their parents blamed me even though I had neither bought nor given them any alcohol. It was such fucking bullshit. My buddy pitched in for the fine, but going to AA meetings is a terrible way to spend your Friday nights...
holy shit
never answering the door

americans get off easy speed ticket wise. norway has the most retarded prices on speeding tickets. I got a 6500 NOK fine for doing 128km/h in a 100 zone (80 mph in a 60 mph zone). that's a 1300 USD fine.

I don't have any stupid tickets, just me driving too fast. 33mph in a 55. Then 23 over in a 65. The 33 one was in IL which was a 100 dollar ticket. The 23 in WI was a 250 dollar ticket.

A woman cop pulls over my dad while he's driving his Mustang Bullit show car. He saw her probably about 8 blocks back,so he was sure not to speed or anything. As she approaches the window, she says, "YOU SMOKE?" He replied with a sarcastic "Yeah", and pointed to his pack of cigarettes on the dash. She then accused him of flicking a cigarette butt out the window, and was going to give him a littering ticket for $120. All he had to say was "I got news for you, honey, I don't smoke in this car so that's impossible. It's a show car, if you know what that is." She got angry, and stormed away. Best way to get out of stupid tickets is be a sarcastic jerk.

I live in a small town and they have a racket going on to where you pay an extra hundred dollars to have your speed charge drop due to "faulty equipment." It costs an extra hundred dollars to do that but you also NEED a lawyer, which is another hundred dollars. My 70 dollar ticket ended up costing me 270, but it's necessary to do this unless you want points on your license or your insurance to go up. It's pretty much legalized extortion. Also, the fact that you are required to have a lawyer to do it makes the whole thing all the more grimy, because the "faulty equipment charge" practice is wide spread around here and some towns don't have that requirement - you can pay the faulty equipment charge yourself and save the $100!

So anyways im driving down the 60 which turns into the I-10 , the highway that go's straight to LA when i start seeing all these flashes while im driving. I kinda think nothing of it at first, maby im just tired and seeing things, WRONG. I had never seen those god damn camera's on the side of the road that give you fucking speeding ticket's before because they never had them in California, or at least anywhere where I had lived my entire life, so anyways to make a long story short I got 4 speeding tickets in like a 4 mile area before I noticed, and yea I kinda drive fast at 4 am when their are no cars around so I was going about 15 miles over the limit on all of them.
fuck i hate this shit, fucking cameras

This didn't happen to me, but when I was in the Marines it happened to one of my guys.
He goes home on leave to Texas, goes out to drink with a bunch of his buddies.
They leave him at the bar and go home, leaving him by himself at the bar. When he realizes this at like 1am, he decides that rather than spend money on a cab or wake someone up to come get him, he just goes to sleep in his car and figures he'll catch a ride with someone in the morning.
So he's knocked out IN HIS BACK SEAT, when a cop comes by wakes him up, gives him a DUI.
A fucking DUI for trying to do the right thing and not driving home drunk. And of course the military being what it is, they gave him no sympathy and took his rank, too. Did he have his keys in the ignition? or is it completely irrelevant? As I understand it he was sleeping in the back seat with the keys on the floor so he wasn't sleeping on them. I don't think that was factored in though; apparently they give DUIs to drunk people in cars with keys period. He couldn't go back to contest it because he was on leave from California and had to be back at work. Actually he could fight the shit out of that because unless the keys are in the ignition the person doesn't have actual control of the vehicle.
It really varies state by state (most will hammer you though the same as if you parked your car in someone's living room) and if they wanted to be dicks, there's non-DUI shit they can get you on. Keys in the trunk won't necessarily cut it

Honestly, I didn't know it was illegal to leave your car running untended..

400 € + licence suspended for 1 month + 6 points deducted from said licence (it has 12 max)
For having been flashed at 180km/h instead of 90 km/h
The stupid factor is that it was riding a motorcycle, and being flashed by the only fixed radar that takes pictures from BEHIND, on that road I perfectly know.
Was too drunk to remember said radar

People who drive drunk should be shot, cut up and fed to dogs. I have zero tolerance with that shit.
Dumbest fine: 120$ for riding the train without paying. Felt so stupid, since I knew I'd broken the rules.
I've talked my way out of so many fines - urinating in public areas (pretended we were foreign exchange students), riding without lights on bike ('I'll remember them next time!') and drinking in public (this is illegal in Denmark, but the law is never enforced: this one cop tried, but we convinced him it was bullshit and he left us alone).
My dad went to NYC some 30 years ago with a bunch of friends and right after checking into the hotel late at night they decided to cure the jetlag by getting drunk. Being that they were cheapskates they went to a store to pick it up, went out and sat on the street and hit the bottles. 10 minutes later the cops show up and fine 13 stupid danes 50$ each...

You don't have to. If police are knocking on your door and there is no clear and present danger than they can not enter or make you come out without a warrant. Basically that's why he got in trouble because by opening the door he is "essentially" accepting that there is activity going on inside.
It is a very corruptable rule that cops seem to love to use to make arrests without warrants.

And opening the door just about lets them come in and poke around too. If there is anything illegal/suspicious in plain view, they can come in and search. So if he thinks there's underage people inside and see's a beer on the table, he'll get in. etc. etc.
Basically, if you have something to hide, don't open the door

I got a ticket at the college I'm at this year, because the car wasn't registered and that it was impeding the flow of traffic. Well, it was not impeding the flow, and I had registered online, I just assumed that information was accepted, but instead, I had to pick up a sticker for my car. I did not know that, nor did it say that anywhere on the college website. I tried to fight it, but you know colleges, they want as much money as possible.

Exactly the same thing here. Only it's 50 € here. I was sure the coast was clear (drunk obv), but then some cop on a motorcycle drives past and sees me pissing against some random wall. Don't think I got more than 5 tickets in my life tho.

Ahh but you see if I see an underage guy with alcohol entering the residence or peek through a window where there is OBVIOUSLY a loud party then that goes flying out the window.
And face it, small parties are not the ones that get called in...it's the gigantic parties where people are mingling outside that get called in.
