I tried to be nice but he kept pissing me off and gave me a ticket, even though I nicely explained why I turned in. After he gave me the ticket let him know what I thought about his lame bike cop ass. Tried to give me a no front plate ticket then, told him I just got the car and wasn't given a bracket so he didn't. I got the ticket because I have a nice car basically, I know it's horrible to say but it's true my buddy cuts through back alleyways going the wrong way all the time in a old windstar van and hasn't even been stopped.

Just because your buddy has had the good luck of not getting pulled over for it doesn't mean you're always going to get away with it. Or that he is always going to get away with it. Simple fact is, if you follow the rules of the road, chances are slim that the cops are going to give you a ticket. Don't blame the cops. Don't blame your car. You keep getting them because of how you choose to drive. And seeing as how you keep complaining about not having any money, I would have thought you'd do what you could to avoid unnecessary expenses, like getting tickets.

I'm not blaming the cop, I'm just saying he could've said look man, you turned in the wrong way that's why I'm giving you a ticket. From the beginning, starting with "Can you read" he had a bad attitude, even though I was as nice as could be. I accepted that I turned in the wrong way, told him why I did it, since I turned into the parking lot and not the actual alleyway. If I didn't turn in that parking lot, I have to go down 4 more blocks and turn up around a street half a mile north and circle back around. There wasn't a single car, I stopped and looked around to make sure, and turned into a parking lot. It was the right direction in the parking lot, just where I turned in from was a wrong way. I didn't think he would make a huge deal out of it on a Thursday night with hundreds of drunk people walking around us, jaywalking, puking, yelling and running into the street. With everything going on, I was the least of his worries but him asking me what year the car was, then from there proceeding to tell me he had a 98 Taurus and asking how could I even afford this car, or even in a snobby voice saying "or are mommy and daddy just rich" is what ticked me off. I've met plenty of nice officers, who once you apologize too and explain what you were trying to do will tell you "OK, just don't do it again" or that it's understandable. He was a douche from the beginning, and I've already talked to a couple of my buddys police friends who know him and say he's just a grouchy old fart who will give anyone a ticket for anything.

Yeah the day I got a ticket, I was bragging about not having on in more than 6 years.

This was when I had to pull the car in the garage, and by pull I mean, open the trunklid, and pull. Anyway, I was going to take my seats out, scrub carpet and seats. Also I intended to clean the dash and everything else. I quit at pulling the car in the garage.
