I also got one in a state park when I was young and very stupid, for laying two very long strips of rubber in front of the park ranger's house on a dare. Let me tell ya, Park Rangers have the same authority that cops do. I know because I argued that with both of them that day, and they won.

never had a bad ticket but did have a couple where the cop didn't really have to work for it
1) On UT campus doing 31 in a 20. Radar was set up between parked cars and she stepped out in front of me to pull me over. Shows just how dangerous my speed was if you can step in front of me with no fear
2) Illegal right on red. Motorcycle cop was sitting in a parking lot right by the exit ramp. Turns out that lot was where I needed to be. I made the illegal turn and then turned into the lot. He flipped his lights on and I pulled right up to receive my ticket. Even worse it was my first day in my new company car and the boss was with me
I cried the first time and it didn't work. It was an older cop so I am sure he had heard and seen it all before. The 2nd time I was just mad and he was going to give me a ticket so what was the point. The 2nd time, though, this guy was running and passed by my car and said don't worry he got me last week. That made it worse...I was fuming at that point.
