    So this guy pulls out from a blind drive (I saw him) to pull into the turn lane where I was traveling. We both pull into the same gas station. Officer pulls up behind the guy, does his thing and as I am stepping out of the truck asks me not to! Then he asks me if I am okay b/c this guy almost clipped my rear corner and gets my license and says it's still suspended in FL!!! Yes, my license WAS suspended in FL for toll violations (gotta love unmanned malfunctioning booths) but it's all good now! Apparently FL doesn't think so. But tell me this - if my license was suspended in FL how could I possibly obtain an AL license? And that's what I challenged the officer with. I didn't have an ins card with me and he cut me slack on that. Then I get home to closer examine the ticket only to find it says that I made an improper turn!! What the frigg?!?! He asked me point blank if I was okay after the incident! URGH!!

    In FL you get a ticket that says how much you have to pay - I asked him and he said, "Call this number tomorrow," as he circles a # on the citation.

    So I guess I won't be driving anywhere until I figure out WHY my license is still showing a suspended status in FL. I am SO puzzled!! Before the toll violation was paid in FL I tried to get an AL license (worth a shot, right?). They denied me in 2 seconds!!

    The officer told me he could have taken me to jail for driving on a suspended license, and could have towed the vehicle for it. But he saw the 2 carseats and said, "I see you have two kids to get home to," and talked about how close I lived to the gas station and let me go. I was like, "Except my license ISN'T suspended anymore and this is crazy!!" He circled a # for me call so tomorrow HOPEfully I'll have some answers!

    I pray it was just a computer glitch!!

    Life is crazy like that. Sometimes out of nowhere stuff like this happens. It makes one wonder who is really in control?

    Go to court
    Cop says yes
    You say no
    You lose

    I don't pretend to know the burden of proof in this sort of situation / where you live, but when it comes to nice juicy fines I can't see you coming out of this a winner

    A cop almost hit my dad on a narrow street and pulled us over! He was some just over 20 something little shit, thought he had the world by the balls cuz he has a badge. He told us we had to move over more, when he was the one that came racing around. Also said my dad flipped him off.

    Sometimes I really hate police.

    speaking of going to jail, would they make you cut your dreads or get rid of them? Wouldnt it be possible to hide something inside dreads, lol. not sure what, but itd be a reason for them to use against you.

    I have seen pictures of inmates with dreads. Maybe it depends on the facility? I have a friend in prison and he has a shaved head, but he has a massive beard.
