What's your strangest ticket?

Long time ago, when I was a senior in high school. I was cruising to the park for a high school tennis match and had my music too loud. Cop from a neighboring business eventually pulled me over. Said he heard my music from two streets over and knew the song.

Bastard gave me a ticket for disturbing the peace. I was like WTF. $100. That was a full weeks pay back then.

Was leaving a football game when I was a junior in high school when it was raining like hell. Red light turned green and my tires on my old jeep Cherokee skidded out for a second. I hit a top speed of a whopping 20 or 25 mph before hitting the next red light 200 yards away. Cop comes out of nowhere and pulls me over and gives me a ticket because he "heard me street racing."

It got dropped a few weeks later, but the cop was just out to be a douche.

Minor in possession of alcohol by consumption.

Cookeville, TN October 1998.

Had to call in a favor to get that one dropped.

Improper use of the turn lane, I was 17. I was on highway 78 in Snellville and going to turn left at an upcoming light to turn onto a side street to go home. Apparently, I got into the turn lane to turn left "too early". The most embarrassing part was I didn't really even see the cop. I went ahead and turned left, and the street I turned on had my high school right there. So I'm driving down and the senior parking lot was on my right, there were people shuffling around up there and they were all staring at me (and the cop) and I was just waving, oblivious. I finally looked up and was like "oh shite" and pulled over.

Nothing says street racing like a Cherokee.

Freshman year of college I blacked out, and woke up with a citation on my desk covered in puke. I couldn't read it at all; I had to call the court house for more info. It turns out it was mine after all and I got it for underage consumption and falling asleep in the courtyard.

got a ticket for littering and not having a license plate on my jet ski trailer in high school. the littering was because the plate fell off on the road to the lake in front of the cop.

dickhead tried to question each of my friends in my truck and get their info, then bitched because I didnt have my trailer registration, thought it was stolen, even though the jet ski was registered to me.

Failure to yield for turning right onto a road. The cop was coming from the left and was booking it over a hill and had to slow down.

Improper start. $49

Apparently, it's not wise to do a burnout when a Birmingham Police cruiser is 2 vehicles behind you.

Wrong way down a 1-way street. The street was only 1-way between the hours of 2:30pm and 3:30pm. And only 1-way monday-Friday excluding Wednesday. And it was only 1-way while school was in session.

The bitch of it is, the only way to get to my house was to go the wrong way. Such a pain in the arse. Cost me 60$ and 4 hours of my time in drivers school

flipped a truck going down a dirt road on the way back from school. wasn't speeding or driving recklessly really. a car pulled out in front of me and went about 60 and kicked up dirt and i missed a curve in the road because i couldn't see jack.

walked 2 miles home and called it in. when my dad took me back to the DPS officer I got three tickets.

1. Failure to control speed - fair enough I wasn't speeding.
2. Leaving the scene of a crime - This was 1999 we didn't all have cell phones then and I had to walk home.
3. Failure to report immediately - See #2.

this was my second ticket in 6 months as a 16 year old and that's a big no-no. I had to go to a judge and he asked if I wanted to protest. I said just the second two. He looked at the officers notes and said (from the Bench) "that little shite gives the most dumbass tickets. Don't get a ticket for six months and you're in the clear."

other weird one was a pullover late one night. DPS officer comes up and shines the light in my face. asks if i've been drinking. i say no. gives me a full sobriety test which i pass. breathalyzer which i pass. then he gives me a ticket for violating improved highway (apparently the shoulder paint is improved highway. take it in and they say "this isn't even a violation. sorry for your troubles."
