I got lots of tickets when I was younger and always took them to court to challenge them. Even if I really was in the wrong I considered it to be a matter of principle. It was in the courtrooms that I discovered that police are amoral liars.
I liked the challenge of arguing different points of perspective and points of law so I didn't lie in court, but over and over again the cops told bald-faced lies to "win" their cases. Thus a well-deserved loathing for the boyz in blue.
