Improper use of the turn lane when I was 17.
I was on a highway (2 lanes each direction wiht a middle turn lane) in my hometown approaching a major intersection where i was going to turn left. I'm maybe 100 yards or so from the intersection and get over into the turn lane and approach the light. Everything is good so I turn and when I look in my rearview there's lights behind me. Come to find out I go a ticket for getting into the turn lane "too early".
That was pretty bogus.

I was behind a car at a redlight on Hooper rd at the entrance ramp to I220 at rush hour on the way to work. They have a double whittle line there so people don't try to squeeze in at the last moment. The car in front of me broke down when the light turned green, so I go around him and got a ticket from the motorcycle cop parked under the overpass. I was perplexed and asked him if I was supposed to wait until the guy got his car repaired but he was a jerk and wouldn't answer me.

If you would have read his post he stated the car flew by him. He cut the guy a break

Seatbelt ticket.
I was in the turn lane on Nicholson to get on Bluebonnet. Cop passes me going the other direction (at ~50 or so mph). Whips his car around and pulls me over on Bluebonnet.
Writes me a ticket for no seatbelt while I was wearing my seatbelt. Said he couldn't see the seatbelt on me when he drove by.
I was wearing a black shirt, sitting on black leather seat, and my seatbelt was a black strap.
He accused me of putting my seatbelt on while he was pulling me over.
Total bullshite.

I got a DWI in December. I was not in my car, the car wasn't turned on, no keys were in the car, etc. I was in my bed asleep. I had drank four beers in as many hours. I got home around 12:30 am and was woken up by policemen at my front door. They said that someone (not a cop) had called in my license plate number and said I seemed intoxicated. I passed the field sobriety test but like a fricking idiot I admitted to drinking before getting behind the wheel. So now I've gotta deal with all this fricking bullshite with the courts.

This did not happen. And if it did, you have an extensive criminal background and no lawyer.

Avoiding a red light.
Cut through a shopping center parking lot to get from one street to another. To well... avoid waiting at the red light.
Also got pulled over one time for giving the officer a "hard look". Whatever that is. No ticket. Just a "be on your way and be safe" thing.

Littering during Mardi Gras. However, it was after I flipped off a policeman who was directing traffic. I was a non-conformist, spoiled brat 17 year old kid at the time and I deserved it.

You're right. I made all that up for my own entertainment. I have no criminal background and got an attorney.

Driving back to LA from Atlanta (Christmas) 2009 on the Interstate and got pulled over for speeding in a construction zone. No one was working that day, just the cop. I can't remember the speed, but the fine was between $600 - $900.
