i have no problem with cops doing their jobs,i try to obey as much as possible, i don't leave my spot with out buckling and i always use a turn signal, but picking and choosing when they do their job is lame, to always see you and not do anything is like them saying it's ok, but then to ticket you at random makes it seem like he's some kinda jerk (which he may or may not be) or alot of other things could have made him do it. we'll never know..
but what i hate is, i'll be behind a cop and 99% of the time they never use a turn signal, and to me that's dangerous and putting my life in danger, not to mention countless other violations i would see. ( i lived a block from the cop shop and seen like 10 cops everyday on my way to work) i always wanted to have a friend in the passenger seat video tape them doing these violations and send them into their commanding officer,but i wouldn't want to be the target after i did it, so i let that idea go, can we issue a citizens ticket< like a citezens arrest? hahah that'd be cool..
one day i was driving to work and a porsche pulled out in front of me and a cop and was punching it and jumped across 3 lanes to get into a turn lane and made the turn with no blinker, and the cop looked at him and was going to keep going, i pulled up next to the cop and said "that's bull****, you just seen that and you let it go? you just pulled me over the other day for tint,and it was LEGAL tint and let me go? but you let that ******* drive wreckless and just ignore it???" and the cop looked at me and didn't say anything, and flipped a uturn at the next light and went after the porsche...
he would rather pull over a 24 yr old in a honda accord with factory tint, the lightest possible tint, than a rich dude in a porsche that has no concern for others safty...i hope that cop realized something that day and won't target certin people...

honestly energy drinks every mornin are gonna hurt ya down the road.
but the cop did the right thing.
i think people who jump in and out of lanes without blinks are *******s.
and you should be expected to use it on any type of turn.

The goat has never signaled as far as I know.
He don't even use the seatbelt.
He does drive as good as about half the cars out there but,
an unlicensed goat behind the wheel sobers you up real quick.
No more than 2 or 3 miles kills a good buzz.

I guess the officer is justified, because you are supposed to use your turn signal. I also believe that if you are in a lane designated to go in one specific direction, a turn signal is redundant.
