Hey,
That's how it is for us BMW drivers. I was recently pulled over in my '94 540i for "not using my turning signal long enough" in a city where NO ONE uses their signals. I had to pay a 135 dollar fine and had three points put on my record. The cop testified in court that he actually followed me originally because I was speeding, then he accused me of cutting someone off, then when he could not get me for drinking, he went for the weakest moving violation EVER...and I could not get out of it. The judge sided with him because he was actually a Sheriff and not just a regular cop. Needless to say, I was livid. -- Mike
