    Yes, due to my brake light being out. Was issued a citation and had to have it fixed within 30 days.

    Speeding (to get around a semi on the highway), and then once when I was backing out of my driveway I didn't see them and almost hit them! I nearly burst into tears but they were okay about it and didn't give me a ticket.

    Speeding once and an expired registration the other time. Didn't get a ticket for speeding but did for the registration.

    In Korea for using the "Bus Only" lane, it is sort of like an HOV lane in the US. I saw the Korean markings for "Bus Only" but played the Dumb American card...he let me go , BTW it is a $500 fine :)

    3 times pulled over.. Never a ticket. 2 Warnings.

    Speeding on highway. I was 18, he let me off with a warning.
    Speeding in school zone. (Could not find my current insurance card either) Let me off with a warning because where I turned out of the neighborhood you can't tell the school zone lights are flashing.
    Did not make a long enough complete stop in a neighborhood. I was not supposed to get out of this one, Captain was tired of complaints, but I name dropped my SIL who is a Lieutenant. :)

    Recently for failing to come to complete stop at a stop sign. Warning given, but then cop asked where I worked and a contact number. Anyone had this done before or a reason for asking this information? I thought it was weird.

    Driving in the left lane to long and my license plate light being out

    you actually got pulled for driving in the left lane too long,was it an HOV or something?! Well thank god lol I didn't actually think they did this but can't tell you how many times I wish they would have! No offense to you, but I'm really happy to know they pull people for that.

    No reg, warrant, seat belts and driving with passengers. This happened at the same check point. Nice lady cop though. She gave me a warning and made my passengers walk lol I had to smooth talk my way out of that situation. I think it was more to do with my birthday being on the same day as hers and both exactly the same age that saved my butt haha

    That's bizarre. I'd suspect you wouldn't have to legally tell them this. I'm related to a cop and live with a lawyer. One cringes when sold stories like this...one is like wherever
