    I also sorta had a moment of perhaps morbid curiosity about this one.

    Do they simply have an extraordinary sense of entitlement? A strong belief that getting ahead means being clever about working the system? A philosophical commitment to fringe ideas of what it means to be a person in society?

    Or are traffic citations that much of a nuisance that you’ll do anything to get out of them? A lot of the posts I see here seem to focus on transportation / driving.

      They aren’t getting out of it though. I’ve seen so many videos of idiots where even though almost everything was illegal (suspended license/fake plates/no insurance/etc) the cop was ready to just write a ticket and let them go but they try their sovcit script and inevitably get their window broken, dragged from the car, arrested, car towed. Then they try that same sovcit shit in court and get shut down again. The disconnect is insane.

      I would imagine — in my non-trained eye — that they are probably narcissist; they lack the ability to admit to themselves and others that they make mistakes.
