I got pulled over the other day. The reason given was a lane change violation (which was bullshit pretense, it was right outside a very rural, but very busy, bar so this was likely actually entrapment, tho I was for sure under the legal limit - I was there to check out line dancing because I’ve never seen it before, and only had one beer in the hour I was there).

I also had a very expired registration (haven’t driven much, and didn’t realize I forgot to renew it).

But I got let off everything with a warning..? I spent days trying to figure it out because it should have been a ticket.. he didn’t even seem interested in waiting for me to dig out my insurance info (which I had, just had to get it out of my wallet).

But I have a dash cam.. and it records sound. It would have proven I didn’t violate anything, and he was recorded saying why I was pulled over so no way to flub it and say it was actually the registration all along, and thus the pretense for pulling me over in the first place was void. I’m pretty sure that’s the only reason I got off with a list of warnings rather than tickets.
