In my personal experience.. Cops have straight up lied.. I was speeding, cop pulls me over and gives me a reckless driving ticket.. When I read the ticket.. It said (I'm being serious here) that I was driving in such a reckless manor that cars were swerving off the road to avoid me crashing into them.. I couldn't believe it.. Had to get a lawyer and go through the court stuff.. In the end.. Cop agreed to reduce it to careless driving rather than reckless..

Bull f***ing shi*.. Had to pay court fees, lawyer, the ticket itself.. And had to do a ridiculous amount of community service hours..
All because the cop decided to lie and punish me for a more severe offense than what I had actually done..

Another incident.. Was speeding (82 on a 70).. Cop pulls me over.. Tells me I was doing 90.. I tell him I actually had cruise control set to 82 so I wasn't going 90.. His response.. "Oh.. So you're admitting to speeding then" gave me the ticket for 90.. This might seem negligible (90 rather than 82).. But it's not.. Going more than 15 mph over gets you points and therefore higher insurance rates.. So rather than paying it and that's it (what I deserved).. I had to do the whole driving school crap to avoid the points on my license.

Sorry.. I have no respect for cops
I get where you're coming from. A couple of cops lied and f'ed you over, but saying that you have no respect for cops is pretty harsh. I doubt many of us would be willing to do what they do day in and day out. This thread is related to a speeding ticket, but cops do a hell of a lot more than write citations. Sh$t that I wouldn't want to do, and I suspect that you wouldn't want to do either. I mean, in the grand scheme of things, unless you live in a suburb or the country, I doubt giving out citations is really high on the list of stuff they want to get done in a given day. Being shot at, putting up with bullsh&t from the people they are trying to protect, getting in to physical altercations, etc...no thank you.

All that noted, I understand that there are some real azzholes out there who get off on hassling car enthusiasts (and speeders, in general), but, again, saying you have no respect for cops is pretty harsh. I'm sure if you were ever in need of real assistance from a LEO, you would feel differently.

I'm not an apologist, just saying that I appreciate the fact that most cops have a difficult job that is pretty thankless.
