Who the fuck pulls somebody over for a cracked windshield? Seriously, what the fuck??? It would be easier to count the number of cars in Colorado that don't have cracks in their windshield. Every fucking car in this state gets pelted with rocks every damn time it is put on these pot hole infested highways of this fucking place not to mention the rock quarry trucks coming off 285 onto 470 every morning. If the traffic stop wasn't stupid enough, I couldn't find my new insurance cards right away; she left and announced triumphantly that “I am writing you a ticket!” Well, good for you; don't hurt yourself! I found the envelope with the new cards and declarations when she was gone. When she came back and I presented the insurance information, she wouldn't take it and told me she already printed out the ticket (well isn't that too fucking bad), that I should just follow the process to submit proof as described in the ticket. Really? ...what makes you think that I am going to accept a citation that is invalid you dumb bitch? I guess it is too damn difficult to void the incorrect ticket and print out a new ticket that is valid. Damn, that is a lot of fucking work! I hate to tear you away from your important mission of eliminating the city of cracked windshields...I mean that egregious shit needs to stop now. Seriously, of all the lazy ass stupid shit. Really, are you really going to issue a citation that you know is false? You dumb fuck!!! So, I get to work and fax the proof of insurance, but I am just fuming at this point and called the department. Yep, she was suppose to take the information and correct the ticket. She now has an IA officer doing an inquiry. What a stupid windbag!!! I am generally very respectful toward LEOs, but this whole thing was really fucking stupid. Of the 1001 other bad things going on in Lakewood at this moment in time, why the hell would you stop me for a cracked windshield; what a complete waste of everybody's time.

Well, she never took the new information from my hand and inspected it. I really hope they change the ticket because then they did so without verifying the information at the stop. I would love for them to explain this mess when we go to court, because I have every intention of bringing up the lack of procedure with the judge.

Yeah, my CTD is also cracked along with every other vehicle I own except my collector cars. It is pretty much impossible. I usually get hit with a rock on 470 that will generally spread before I get home so I don't have a chance to repair it. Unless it is a starburst that covers a large area, it doesn't really matter.

For some reason, I couldn't keep my mouth shut today; I restated the ridiculousness as she left and also mentioned the ticket was idiotic...probably doesn't help me much. The windshield has a few cracks; it was hit with numerous rocks which happens more frequently then I can count. From the Morrison exit on 285 and 470, I get hit all the time; the fronts of my cars that I use for commuting are all beat to hell. There aren't any starburts or spider webs; nothing that would prevent my sight. If there were, I think I am smart enough to figure that out on my own.

Yes
The next time you need the police I hope you remember everything you just posted.

I also hope you get full penalty tickets every time you get pulled over from this day forward.

You are the most disrespectful person I've ever seen. I have dealt with convicted felons that have more respect than you do.

You deserved every bit of the ticket you got. You broke the law and now you're crying like a baby that you got caught. Had you been RESPECTFUL from the start you probably would have gotten off with a warning.

I hope you need the police one day, and I hope they help you, even though you don't deserve it. And even though you don't deserve it, they probably will help you. That's what they do, They help people. Even those like you that don't deserve their help.
