I've had my share of tickets and most are a result of "traps" set up in areas where people always bend the rules. (rolling stop signs, speed zones, right on red, etc.)
While commuting to and from work, I try to abide by the road rules and regularly get cut off, honked at and flipped off by other commuters keeping up with traffic.
Driving in Mass is like being a fish in a barrel- you keep up with the flow of traffic and hope and pray that when a cop is around it's not YOU that gets screwed.
Abiding by the speed limit causes more problems than not. And when there's a cop on the side of the road there are always back-ups and break lights galore!
I got nailed for the most ridiculous things, most questionable.
I had to take a stupid waste of time class that simply made my blood pressure go up.
The worst part is that if you watch cops drive around, they break the rules all the time! No turn signals, flying through yellow/red lights, turning where signs say not to, and more.
Aren't they supposed to set a good example??
Sorry for the rant, but I feel better now...
Alex
