    Can get a dashcam and make sure any tickets you receive are tickets you earned.
    There are enough jokers out here, as long as you are doing your best to follow the rules you should be fine. I know there are some gestapo officers out there but in my experience I have always been treated the way I treated them. I was a real a hole once and it didn't work out well for me.

    Well if you do get a ticket is it worth to always fight it? Like to get a lawyer so you don't get any points.

    That is a topic for discussion in itself. A lot of people say fight everything. I figure if I deserved it I take my lumps and go onward. Every ticket I ever got was well deserved. I don't get a lot of tickets by doing what I said in post 51. Do your honest best effort to stay legal and they will often overlook the small things. Just don't do something stupid or egregious and expect to get away with it. Generally if you are honest with them they'll work with you.
