re: Dumbest traffic ticket you've ever received?

I was coming back from working the grocery store in Woodville MS through St. Francisville. There was road contruction going on just past the Myrtles, 35 MPH. A coworker had gotten a ticket that morning, so I was going 30. I saw a cop by an intersection waving his hand up and down as if signaling to slow down. I motioned to him, my intention being "yessir I understand, will do." Well, his missing toothed dumb arse pulled me over, and first thing he said was, very sarcastically, "I saw you wave when you blew past me!!" Apparently that was a seat belt check, but dumb arse power tripper didn't know the difference between a gesture to slow down and the gesture for stop. Even my Paw Pa, a retired Baton Rouge cop, said that was dumb on his part.
