n. pl. con·spir·a·cies
1. An agreement to perform together an illegal, wrongful, or subversive act.
2. A group of conspirators.
3. (Law) An agreement between two or more persons to commit a crime or accomplish a legal purpose through illegal action.
4. A joining or acting together, as if by sinister design
The question now becomes, a) is it illegal, and b) was this a 'common' agreement between law enforcement and the judiciary?

Oh and the AH I put on my tickets is on the front, so the driver gets it on their copy too.

Its the same as when someone comes to customer service and flips a lid or freaks out. Make a scene and then leave....as soon as you leave those you cast your anger at will pass it on to others that said person has issues. Same thing here.
My AH doesn't mean they WILL be found guilty, it doesn't sway a judge IMO. It simply lets the judge know that ON SCENE the person DIDN'T WANT TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE LAW(S) THEY CHOOSE TO BREAK...and decided to focus their immaturity on me. Thats all...
In ANY profession you expect to have some dialog in a mature way. When you KNOWINGLY violate the law in such a manner as to NOT care about others on the road, just simply be man or woman enough to sign the ticket and move on.
Regardless of what I write on the ticket DOESN'T supercede the law you broke in such a careless way. Oh and the AH I put on my tickets is on the front, so the driver gets it on their copy too.

You just stated that you have already decided they are guilty and your opinion of their attitude is based on their acceptance of your decision to find them guilty. NOT YOUR PLACE!

But isn't that why he wrote them a ticket?

Thank GOD someone gets it. I am NOT deciding their guilt as some members are confusing the two. I write the ticket based on the violation I WITNESSED. When I come to your window I say the following:

p.s. AH stands for Aggressive & Hostile, not AHOLE...haha...for all of you assuming...

Again don't let your bias against cops clud the reality. Reality is, you broke the law, you got caught, pay the fine and move on. Unless it is a BS ticket that deserves to be fought. Then I say take the steps you need to and fight it...I have no issues with that.

Atleast I put my "codes" on the front of the ticket...
I only use codes if your acting like an idiot. Sorry but if you blow a stop sign, are doing 85 in a 50, or pass on a double yellow making other motorists swirve, etc....I have NO sympathy for you and definitly will note on the ticket if your being an AH driver.

You think I mark a citation because of MY mood?????????
....so not sure why MY emotions come into it. I am simply documenting your behavior on my citation and dash cam.

Yes, I very much DO think you make the determination based on your mood. We humans are not machines, we are emotional animals.
If you are trying to tell me that your interpretation of the extent of another's attitude (bad or good) doesn't vary by how YOU are feeling that day, someone is lying to them self!
Leave the emotions out of it. Both yours and theirs. The law is either broken or not, and whether the driver massages your feelings or not should have nothing to do with it. And usually the dash cam only comes in to it if you call them a bad boy, doesn't it.
