It must be ticket season. It's been about 5 years since my last one, and I got pulled this morning on my way to work.... for not using my turn signal.

Friendly officer:
You changed lanes without signalling, then a few blocks down you turned without signalling. I could write you multiple tickets for wreckless driving, but this time I'll let it go with a reduced charge that carries a fine only. I could write this for up to $350, but will let it go for half - unless you decide you need to fight it in court.

Excuse me???? Not using a turn signal now equals wreckless driving??
Sure. Whatever. I think the second and third sentence really spells it all out, when he decides to extort money from me.
I guess I should be happy that he didn't write "wreckless driving" tickets that I would have to fight in court. That would have really taken more time and money. (which is probably what they count on)
