not to be an ass but you deserve a ticket, I hate people who don't use their turn signals...

What a douche

Someone should tell me (erm) that guy to get a plate! For the record I got pulled over sunday and although I was mad yes, Im the one at fault, hence the reason for no thread by me.
Nice bumper. You can always look at your ticket as a luxury tax.

Boofer, did you get any points with this ticket? If no, then your rates will not go up. Points are what make your rates increase.

But you do have to obey all traffic laws and not be upset when you get busted for disobeying them. Traffic cops have to patrol traffic and when the see an infraction, they ticket. This is their job. Do not give them a reason to pull you over.

On the plus side. failure to signal is one of the lesser infractions. Should be easy to get knocked down a bit in court. Now, failure to yield with a reckless driving ticket is a whole different story. This is what you get when you are weaving in and out of traffic.

Never thought of it that way, but a very good way to look at it

It's like the guy complaining that he got pulled over because he didn't have a front plate cause he has a C-West front and he gets pulled over for it 3 times. I think this is the idiot below.
