Annoyance, General

Got a speeding ticket today. 19 over (EVERYONE speeds through there)
$210.

steep? Hell yes.
apparently Officers must write tickets for infractions of 15mph over the limit (it was 55, I was apparently going 74- its easy for your car to get away from you there, long single lane roads)

I may have been in the wrong, but I am livid, and cannot afford this.
(go ahead with the ''you shouldn''t have been speeding advice, it will almost fall on deaf ears. I was driving maybe 5mph faster than other drivers. I realize the stupidity, I''m just pissed, especially since I''ve been pulled over there before for DRIVING TOO SLOW, and accused of drug use, which of course was totally unfounded.)

I HATE middle Georgia!

I''ve also gotten a speeding ticket for going with the flow of traffic. Some people were even passing me. The cop also decided to write it for 10 miles over what I was actually doing.

So I''m not going to tell you not to be mad over a speeding ticket.

It''s kinda like getting pulled over in Arcade. We all get pulled over at stupid speeding traps. It''s part of what funds small counties. Sorry, dude. It sucks. I try to stick to 10 over.

I''m convinced that traffic cops have some sort of major complex wherein the only place they can find joy in their jobs is by having it in for other people.

Honestly, I feel bad for them because chances are they never wanted to be a traffic cop. Doesn''t seem like there''s anything too great about it...
