I got a ticket for running a stop sign that didn't exist. Turns out it did exist, it was just hanging from a wire about 25 feet up and at an angle that made it impossible to see.

EBRSO gave me one for not coming to a full and complete stop at an intersection in the Summer Breeze subdivision. I guess I deserved it but the neighborhood was completely empty and it wasn't like I blew through the sign. I rolled up slowly at less than 5MPH. Found it an absurd fundraising effort on part of EBRSO
I live in that neighborhood and they got me one day as well. I was taking a right to head out of the neighborhood to get on Burbank. One quick glance to my left was all I needed to make sure no one was coming. Luckily he just gave me a warning. To this day I come to a complete stop. They need to focus on people coming out of the gated town homes. They don't stop at the stop sign and I have had to slam on my breaks countless times coming into the neighborhood. It happens so often I wonder if they can't see the stop sign because they sure as hell can see me coming!

Many years ago, the Gfriend wanted to go to Branson, so we went, and when leaving, heading back to St.Louis, the highway has a major incline, so i didnt want to ride the breaks going down the hill, so a County Cop(camden?) got me doing 5 over.
They love to stick it to locals, pissing off tourist means people wont come.

Unsafe lane change that I contested and destroyed/embarrassed the cop on the stand.
Also got pulled over and given a written warning for 67 in a 65 in New Mexico when I was moving out here.

Improper start $49 ticket in 1987
apparently doing a burnout when the po po is behind you isn't a good idea.

Georgia Police Chief and Officer Accused of Arresting People on False Charges in Order to Extort Them

A police chief and an officer in White, Georgia, were arrested and charged Wednesday with false imprisonment, extortion, and violating oaths of public office. Police Chief David King and Officer Blake Scheff were accused of arresting people on fabricated charges and then reducing those charges to collect fines.
The allegations stem from an investigation into the policemen’s activities between December 2011 and April 2015, Georgia Bureau of Investigation spokesman Greg Ramsey said. From the Atlanta Journal-Constitution:
Brittny Brown was arrested March 31, 2012, in Bartow County on a charge of felony deposit account fraud, a crime that she did not commit, Ramey said. She was told about three months earlier to accept a disorderly conduct citation and pay a $1,000 fine for the crime. If she complied, authorities wouldn’t pursue felony state charges, according to a list of charges for King and Scheff.
About three years later, the family of Lois Kitchens was allegedly told the same thing. Though she was arrested in Bartow County on a charge of committing cruelty to children in the first degree, Kitchens did not commit, Ramey said.
According to the Associated Press, the FBI and GBI executed search warrants at the White Police Department and White City Hall in January. King and Scheff are being held at county jail.

No. They get shot because of low life pieces of shite have no respect for another persons life. I'm guessing you're cut from the same cloth so wouldn't expect you to realize that.

Had just bought a Tahoe in Texas and got my LA plates. Had to drive to Pineville for a meeting so took 190. In some shite town I got pulled over for and ticketed for having a Texas inspection sticker with LA plates. Keep in mind the inspection sticker was not expired. Was able to call and get that one pulled thankfully

Over the summer a few years ago I parked in the lot that used to be for Southeastern's coliseum to run around the campus. Keep in mind I was the only car in the lot because it was summer. I get back to my car and there's a ticket on the windshield for parking in an upperclassmen lot without a tag. I took it to their parking office and told them I wasn't even an SELU student, and they tore it up.

67 in a 55. Literally started speeding up about 500ft from where the limit went up from 55 to 65. Prick cop said that the limit starts exactly where the sign is at. I guess he's right, but he's still a goddamn a-hole.

Face it, you're a reckless driver with a shitty attitude. Your day is coming.
