One time I was ticketed for a "rolling stop" meaning I stopped at the stop sign but the cop says I didnt. Just one of those hide behind the bushes write tickets all day scenarios.
So I'm pissed off and when the cop came to the window I said to the cop in disgust, "gimme a break!"----translated in tone to mean "wtf are you hiding in the bushes harrasing people for?"...
In court he made that sound like I had done something wrong and was asking for him to let me go anyway.
I learned my lesson that day about how cops can twist the meaning and intent of what you say.
