6 of us cruisin' the streets of Collingwood in my buddies hotrodded Dodge van. We stop at the beer store and each grab a case of beer. Each case gets ripped open and one beer removed and half consumed before being pulled over.
6 full cases of beer confiscated. All escorted in cruisers to the police station parking lot where one cop has personally delivered the van!...while driver inside getting breathalyzer. Driver soon emerges telling "new" driver to pull up to the back door of the police station. Officer appears and helps load 5 of the 6 open cases of beer back in our van with instructions to go straight to cottage, LOL. No charges laid.
We STILL chuckle every time we recite this story (when our kids aren't around, of course) 
Yes, it was a great time to be a teen, so long as you weren't one of those dumb s**t teens we would here about who felt the need to kill himself doing something nuts and ruin it for every one.
I just decided to let the Kawi go and did not look anywhere except in front.
I stopped for a yellow light and just after it turned green a cop with cherries showed up.
I pulled over to the next spot.
He came over and asked "do you have any idea how fast you were going"?
I said 30 mph
He said he was going over 120 and he was left far behind.
I said maybe 35 on my part.
He was a full light change behind so something might been wrong with his car????
Anyway he gave me an expensive ticket.
I looked later and.
It said I was doing this in the city of whitby.
I went to the court and objected before they could say anything.
(objection your honour there is no city of whitby near here"
It was just withdrawn.(back then)
I have seen people try this after charge is read and they just amend it.
My curiosity is if this is still the same? (it was 30 years ago for me)
The cop here started in a city and wrote the ticket in a town.
That is why he messed up.
