I guess its the cool thing to do since everyone else is getting tickets :P ... never fails.. only when I have extra cash I'll get a ticket for something.. it never fails.
I've not been pulled over in over a year but last night broke my streak..it was wet and the roads were wet and well i was being dumb and was drifting..
went around the wrong corner which a cop was sitting at for some strange reason.. never seen one there in my life and was borderline to being out of his jurisdiction. it really was a very random thing honestly.. never saw on there but it was still my bad so w/e
well needless to say he wrote me two citations.. one for not using a signal and another for driving on the wrong side of the street
it could have been worse like wreckless endangerment or something around those lines.. im going to fight the ticket and blame it on the weather
i asked the officer to note on the ticket the weather conditions and he just told me to sign it.. i asked him again and he got mad and tore off the copy and said "heres your weather conditions"
the guy spoke horrible english.. he was oriental but not sure where from over there
so my arguement if it holds... the roads were wet and it was close to freeze.. im not sure if i hit an oil spot or a small patch of ice but my car started to slide so i correct the steering as fast as i could.. the turn signal must have got hit off when i went to correct the cars path so it did not skid out of control
either or... ill think of something else like i saw something in the road or thought the cop was pulling out and it make me go further right than normal.. his lights were off and he was just sitting there hidden..
im sure i could get the driving on the wrong side dropped.. if i get a fine for the no turn signal its not biggy since it can't be that expensive
"the turn signal must have got hit off when i went to correct the cars path"
I would drop that part of the argument. Even if that were really the case i still wouldn't mention it cause it sounds like complete bullsh!t. With the weather conditions being poor just go for getting the wrong side ticket dropped.
don't know yet.. they are closed sunday which is toady.. ill have to wait until i go to the court which won't be till fri prolly.. i can call and get a rough estimate tomorrow i guess
its night and day when i throw it in 4wd in my cherokee...idk if it has a great 4wd system or something but i have never ever felt uncomfortable driving it in any snowy conditions
