The worst ticket? I was on I-87 heading North to Albany with this new chick. I was doing 120 on the cruise control the entire way up. The Radar started to pick something up so I slowed down just a bit, when I noticed the State Trooper on the opposite side heading South bound. 87 in this area is 2 lanes both sides divided by a metal guard rail in some area's, grass divider in other's. As I flew past the cost I looked right at him and could tell that he was pissed! I kept watching him in my rear view mirror and saw him do a 360 on the highway and come up the wrong way on the North bound side!!!!! Apparently there was a section that would allowed him to cross over to the North bound side a little farther up.

After he caught me he asked me why I was going so fast and if I knew that he could arrest me, tow my car and spend the night in jail just for driving that speed. I told him that I wasn't going that fast and that I had the Cruise control set at 85 (Bull-Shit). The speed limit in that area is 65, so I figured 85 would be cool.

The cop was real cool after that and said that he would only write me up for an 86 in a 65 zone, and that I should contest the ticket. However, since it was late November he said to do it after the Holidays and the new year because he didn't want to spend the holiday in court with me. Anyway, I got an $80 dollar ticket and 3 points off my license, only 1 left.... Yes, I have calmed down since then.

Some of them are cool, but FHP are the worst.
