I was driving with my friend to wallmart at like 12 midnight, and i came out of a bend at like 25 and punched it in second. I took it up to about 3500 rpms, and shifted and went normally. Thats about 33 mph, and the speed limit was 25. Well, I see a policeman pull up behind me before I get to a stop sign. The guy ahead of me goes through the stop sign and busts it at like 45 up the road. I though omg, he is gettin a ticket. Well, as it was, the cop followed me through3 traffic lights and 4 stop signs, and finally pulled me over. He gave me a ticket for excessive accelleration back on the bend that I accellerated out of. wtf is that. Excessive accelleration, I wasn't even in first gear. This was before I had my exhaust, so he had to hear the intake. 95 dollars out the window. WTH is up with that. No points or insurance being raised, so I paid it, but I know he was tryin to get me for as much as he could and waiting for me to make another mistake at one of those stop signs or lights, and the best he could do was excessive accelleration. It was near the endof the month, and he probably needed to meet his quota.

you got to learn, the system doesnt care what he got and what you got, they dont compare, you could do the same crime get 300$ ticket, and the other guy get a 20$ ticket, they do not compare.

You should have asked him how much of that went to pay his salary.

I didn't wanna get technical on his ass because he didn't seem like there was too much upstairs. The maximum accelleration in a celica isn't $hit compared to a ZO6 or anything like that. I wanted to ask exactly how you define excessive accelleration, but some of the cops in that area are known for being a$$holes, so I let it go. Thats the kind of garbage that stereotypes cops though, and I know plenty of cool cops that told me that he had no grounds to give me a ticket. But they also told me that since he wrote down that I was going over the speed limit, it is his word against mine if we went into court, and where I got the ticket from, I would have been screwed.

Damn, that's some messed up sh*t. The next time a cop trails me like that, I'm gonna pull into a parking lot and if he follows me I'm gonna ask him what he wants. :mad:
Excessive acceleration? :mad: These kind of cops make the good ones look bad.

If i was a Cop and saw both a Celica and a Z06 doing what you did.. I'd probably pull over the Celica.. Why? Because the guy in the Z06 payed alot for his car and i'd admire him :D

Ask him if he had to drop his doughnut to catch you, that'll get you out of the ticket. ;)

...Or better yet, when he walks up to the window just say, "What do I look like, a goddamn donut shop?"

Or another good one if you really want to get a ticket...
When the cop comes to the window and says the stupidest and most overused phrase of, "Do you know why I pulled you over, son?". You respond with, "Because I let you.".

nah, next time a cop pulls you over, just look at him, and say "these are not the dwarfs you are looking for!"
