re: Biggest BS ticket you've ever received?

I received a ticket because the address on my DL didn't match my registration and insurance.

I was doing 64 on the basin bridge once and a car flew past me. A state trooper was up ahead, and the other car slams on his brakes. The trooper pulls both of us over and claims I was doing 80!
I was pissed. I tried to explain to the cop what happened, and all he said was "tell it to the judge"
I should have shot him and pushed him off the bridge, I'd probably have gotten off cheaper.

When I was 15 I left a party at 11:30pm and was stopped within a 1/4 mile of the party on an "excessive acceleration" ticket. He said "You were not speeding and you did not spin your tires, but you got up to the speed limit too fast". The next day I found out that he wrote 5 other tickets to kids leaving the same party, so that same following day the police chief called my dad(small town) and stated that all tickets were being dropped by the police department.

No shite. All these are some fricked up tickets though. Except the motorcycle cop giving seatbelt ticket.
I got my one and only seatbelt ticket leaving pizza place to go on delivery. I always pulled out turning right and up to a red light. Check address in GPS. Put on seat belt. This time the LSP got me coming the OTHER way on airline and waited for me. a-hole! $27 though. And lesson learned. I would be pissed off at all these other ones.

In Springfield, I was going down a off the beaten path highway heading to Carter Plantation. I was traveling 50 mph and the speed limit on my right said 45. I was pulled over and booked for going 50 in a 35. Come to find out, if you're traveling in the opposite direction there is a speed limit sign directly across from the 45 that says 35. Crooks just wanted my keesh.

BRPD was posted pulling everyone over for using a "Private Parking Lot." He said businesses (like I said, no businesses were actually there) were complaining of people using the parking lot.
Well, I won't pretend to know the law as well as a police officer, but I'm pretty sure that's BS. I know someone who was an Atlanta policeman for 22 years, and he told me there's only 4 moving violations you can get in trouble for on private property like a parking lot; DUI, hit and run, vehicular homicide, and laying drags. Those "No through traffic" signs are completely bogus and don't mean anything legally. YOu don't even have to stop at the stop signs (within reason of course, you can't just mow people down if they're crossing).
Other officers in GA have confirmed this as well. Maybe laws are different in LA, I don't know.

Parking boat trailer too close to a sign in at the boat ramp parking lot. $150.00

Got a ticket for traveling in the left lane while going through Olla, Louisiana. I was the only vehicle on the highway.
I ended up rightfully getting out of it after a long back-and-forth with the Mayor's Office because the Town Police didn't have the authority to issue the ticket in the manner he did.
ETA: Also, every inspection ticket ever issued in BS.

I'll look at the ticket to make sure he didn't put any other BS reason on it and head to court.
I've earned other tickets, but not this one.

I've been breaking the law every ticket I have received so none of them are BS. I know and accept the risk of speeding. 99% of the time it's not a BS ticket if you are indeed breaking the law. Of course there are exceptions if you were rushing to the hospital, fleeing for your life, etc

I got a ticket for cutting through a gas station parking lot to avoid waiting on a red light so I could turn right. Apparently, it is "illegal to go onto or through private property in order to avoid obedience to any sort of traffic control device or sign." This was in Tennessee, though.

Are you sure he wasn't messing with you? Because all of that is wrong.

Intersection of Pecue and Old Jefferson, afternoon rush hour. Everybody just trying to get home and turn safely onto a busy road.
There was an EBR Sheriff's deputy in the Skate Galaxy parking lot watching the intersection, pulling people over two at a time for not coming to a complete stop.
I did come to a complete stop, but got a ticket anyway.
I kept silent while he wrote the ticket then I fought the shite out of it at the courthouse. I actually won. The ADA dropped the ticket because I wouldn't back down, refused to admit I was wrong and they didn't have the time or energy to fight it.

It's illegal in FL and VA as well as it should be.

Just a couple of weeks ago I got a ticket for doing 23 in a 20 mph zone.

I've always heard that 7 miles over the speed limit is your buffer. 10 over isn't a BS ticket.
