Upon his release from police detention, the 'Law and Order: Special Victims Unit' star takes to Twitter to claim that cops should have just given him tickets instead of arresting him.

AceShowbiz - Rapper and actor Ice-T was arrested on Wednesday morning, October 24, for failing to pay a toll on a bridge in New Jersey.
The "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" star took the George Washington Bridge's E-ZPass lane, which is set up for commuters who use a small transmitter to pay, without realising he didn't have his device in the car.
Cops went a little Extra. Coulda just wrote a ticket. In and out.. Moovin. https://t.co/C2YclAxY2m

He continued through the toll into New York City, where he was pulled over by traffic police officials, who also discovered his McLaren sports car was not registered.
I love how people think just because I ACT like a cop on SVU I get special treatment from real cops... lol

Ice was detained for failing to observe the bridge fee and given a ticket for the unregistered vehicle. He has since been released and told TMZ he simply forgot to put his E-ZPass in his new car.
