got a ticket today
 

a few days ago i finally got my car inspected even though i knew i would fail. i was sapposed to go in august but i didnt because the car still had problems.
yeah i know i should of still gone but whatever i didnt.

anyway i was comming home from school today and about to get on 287 but they had about 20 cops pulling people over for inspection and whatever. so the lady sees my rejection sticker and says "your sapposed to have the rejection paper in your car at all times like a registration" so she takes my info back to the car and comes back with a "failure to make repairs" ticket. i started arguing with her about how i got my car inspected a few days ago and she says "well how am i sapposed to know that" and i say "maybe you should ask me before you hurry back and write me a ticket as fast as you can" then another cop butts in and yells "its not her responsibility to carry the paper."

thats when i get mad. i told them i had 45 days to make repairs and they insisted that i was wrong or lieing and that i would have to go to court. i told them im not wasting my time in court for this ******** so i riped up the ticket and told them im not paying for this **** in the midst of all that i said something about never being like them when if i become a cop and i drove away pissed as hell after the cop goes yeah whatever just peel out of here so we can write you another ticket.

moral of the story wanqure cops can go kcuf themselves

:w00t: for :soapbox:

you should have the amount of time to do the repairs
but on the other hand you should have the paper

speaking of inspection....[next month]
anyone know how to fix my blinker?
right works, left doesn't, both work for hazards

I have a feeling you'll be getting another ticket for unsafe or reckless driving in the mail very soon.

:werdmelissa:

you are suposed to have the paper in your car I believe.

nah i drove away very calmly till i was about 1/4th mile away

uhh yea how loud is your car?

If you were supposed to be carrying the paper in the car, and you weren't, then you really can't blame the cops for writing you a ticket. Just take the paper to court when you go and prove that you were within your time limit to have the car fixed.

Getting pissed at the cops and ripping up a ticket on the side of the road isn't solving anything, and it'll prolly only end up making the situation worse.

Check your blinker fluid

well it dosent say on the paper that i need it in the car, noone told me i needed it in the car, sooo i really ahd no reason to keep it in the car. i got pissed becasue teh bitch cop started getting snapy with me so i started arguing with her. then two otehr cops come over and start yelling at me that i should stop blaming her for not having my paper, which i wasnt even doing.

No offense, but based on your reaction, I'm guessing you are like 19 years old or so? You must learn to control your temper. It will only get you in trouble. In situations like that, biting your lip is usually the right idea.

The cards used to say you have to keep them in the car at all times. The cops have no way to tell you just went through in spection. That card is your proof.

yeah without the paper you can be like me and keep the rejected sticker for 9-12 months......

and you opened a can of worms ripping up the ticket.....ill bet on you getting some fun stuff in the mail + you getting pulled over more once they tell their co-workers what your car looks like

Exactly. You might want to find a new route for a little while. You are probably a marked man.

I'm not ****ing retarded...

relax killer

Hahah I know you're not man.......but it was the perfect opportunity for it. Everyone on this board has enough common sense to know there's no such thing as blinker fluid.....I think.

When I had my 92 RS I failed inspection because the front brakes sucked and the car would pull hard to the left. So I was driving with the rejected sticker on my window and didn't have the paperwork with me. On my way to work there was a bunch of cops doing road stops for inspection, along with a trailer setup in a parking lot to inspect the vehicles they pulled over. I got pulled over, I had no paperwork and he said if I had it at home someone could bring it down but no one was so they inspected my car. They were able to check emissions and lights but not brakes due to no skid pad. So my emissions and lights were good, so they slapped a fresh inspection sticker on :lol: I still fixed my brakes a couple of weeks later but
I thought it was funny I got away with it at a roadside inspection

I actually got stopped with a rejection sticker once and no paperwork with me in my truck now that I think about it. I told the cop that my mechanic had the paperwork so he could order the parts I needed to make my repairs. Luckily it worked.....

shane stop being a crybaby

watd the stang fail for?????

back in the day... i had my 88 iroc vert... i failed inspection in OCT 2000... In june '01 i got a $123 ticket for no inspection(45 days were up just by a few haha) then got pulled over again in July '01 (still with rejected sticker from OCT) this time i had NO paperwork, no ID, nothing. Cop asked for anything with my name/DL #, so i asked him if an old ticket would work, he said yea, as i'm handing it to him, he asks what it was for, i say "no inspection" lol. with that he looked at it, looked at me, and smiled/chuckled a lil. He then told me to "take this thing home" and to have a good day. I dont see why people have so much trouble with cops... be nice/honest and it works out for the most part. And that was all before i had connections :-)

turn signal out, emissions, and that mexican air horn you had it in :lol:

sorry guys... finals all this week = minimal sleep
& me on edge

5 in 4 days, failing one tommoro and then done with 'em on thursday...

lol wats wrong twith the mexican air horn that was in it when i bought it!

I had a rejected sticker for a while, and was never told nor notified that you needed to have the paperwork in the car with you.
