What's your most ridiculous traffic ticket?

SfValley335i · 01-24-2010, 07:55 PM

In HS, a bike cop was riding down a street right next to the curb and I as came behind him, I honked my horn to let him know I was coming on his left... I stopped at a stop sign after I had passed him. He came to my window and told me to pull over. Wrote me up for illegal or improper use of horn....

I only ever got one ticket, for failure to change address on my license.

Cause for the officer approaching me in the first place: my 325i was smashed into a concrete barrier.

That reminded me. Same thing happened to me.

I was 18 coming back from my friends 21st birthday doing 78mph and people were flying by me. Texas Hwy Patrol pulled me over, I told him my speedo was off b/c I just got my wheels and hadn't had time to get it recalibrated. Which was a half-truth. He ran mine and my friends licenses and then let us go. I know he pulled me over because of my truck. Cops always tailed me.
