[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 160247, member: 1233"] I can remember MY first ticket. I got it ONLY because I was a teen driving from a street with a major bar on it. And, the officer was under 21 and I refused to sell him beer at the football game earlier. He even flashed his badge to try to get me to sell him beer. Of course I was in a used bookstore/grocery store, not a store with cameras. I really really resent him - mostly because I know he was dealing drugs while being a police officer. I ahve NEVER resented any officer who pulled me over for anything other than this. We had a car with a wire problem to the tail-lights. Kept thinking it was fixed, then would get a ticket because it was out. husband got most of them, he drove it the most (to work). BUT if we weren't pulled over husband would NEVER have seen it and might have been hurt very badly. So we paid the fines, thanked the officer if they gave a warning (cause it showed up several times and they asked if we had been to see a professional about it - and we kept the receipts in the glove box, so they knew we were trying). I appreciate the officers who work so hard to keep us safe. I think it is much harder to write the tickets than to let people go with a warning. Esp now that my Wizard is learning to drive. [/QUOTE]
