Don't worry, Ty. You've got my sympathy. I got a ticket last year for parking in an unmarked crosswalk. I honestly thought that someone was close to running out of time in meeting his quota and made up a violation, but it turns out that apparently there is such a thing as an unmarked crosswalk. Fuckers.
My mom once got a ticket on I-40 in New Mexico at 11:57 pm for driving with her brights on. The fucking freeway divider was half a mile wide. The only possible thing she could have blinded was a gila monster, and I'm pretty sure they sleep at night.
