I once got a ticket for running a stoplight in Chicago. Some lunatic asshole in a Mustang was riding up my ass and there was nowhere to pull over to avoid him. If I hadn't run the stoplight he would have hit me, and it would not have been a love tap. A cop was right there and saw everything. The mustang guy brakes, fishtails through the intersection and peels off the other way. So what does the cop do? Pull ME over and bust me for the light. The rotten **** saw everything that happened. I guess it was low hanging fruit day for the Doughnut Brigade.
I was so pissed that I actually went to court to contest it. I explained to the judge what happened. His exact words - "Avoiding an accident, eh? SEVENTY-FIVE DOLLAR FINE! NEXT!"
