Can they ticket you for not passing a semi?
Most locations have a law against bad driving. It's not exactly called that... it may be legally referred to as "careless and imprudent", for example... but it basically means that a police officer can give you a ticket for almost literally anything the officer considers to be bad driving. You may be able to contest the ticket, in which case you're taking your chances that a judge and/or a jury will agree with you and not with the police officer, but in short: yes, a police officer can give you a ticket for not passing a semi.

If you pass a school bus when the red lights are flashing and you get a ticket, it is a moving violation and your insurance will more than likely go up.
Can you go to traffic school if you get a speeding ticket on federal land in California?
Well were you issued a ticket from the Federal police or a regular county police officer? It you got the ticket from say an LA County cop, then yes of course you can attend traffic school. I suggest one of these, but if you got a ticke from say a military officer or federal officer thatn you have to follow whatever guidelines they have set in place. But I have a feeling the ticket was issued by a regular cop.
If a school bus is parked in a shopping mall with flashing red lights on but no driver or students can you get a ticket for passing it after coming to a full stop?
In most cases, traffic laws regarding passing a school bus with flashing red lights apply only on public roads. In a shopping mall, it's unlikely you'd get a ticket for passing a parked school bus with its lights on and no students or driver inside. However, it's always wise to follow any posted rules or instructions.

As long as the officer that issued the ticket can be identified, say by the ticket number, the signature is not going to get it thrown out.

Can you get a speeding ticket while passing another vehicle?
In some states and countries the passing lane on a highway is reserved strictly for passing and you can get a ticket for driving in it when you are not passing. In other jurisdictions, you are permitted to drive in the passing lane. This is why you need to be aware of local friving laws when you are driving away from your home.
You got a speeding ticket how much will it cost i got a ticket for doing 32 in a 25 this is my first ticket and im 17 is there any way i could go to traffic school instead of paying the ticket?
Traffic school or not you will still have to pay for the ticket. The reason people want to do traffic school it removes the ticket from the driving record. The cost of tickets vary depending on where you live and if it was a city or state officer that gave you the ticket. On the back of the ticket is usually instructions on what to do, so follow those instructions. Reasonably you should expect to pay a couple of hundred after the cost of the ticket and traffic school. If your state allows it you may be able to do traffic school on line from a list of schools they have approved.
Can you get out of your ticket if a police officer does not issue a ticket to everyone just a select few?
No.
Do police ticket their own?
Yes they in fact can. Once when pulled over for a burnt out headlight, I pointed out how the sherriff's cruiser also had a headlight out, so of course I began to debate the ticket with him. A passing Ohio state patrol stopped, and I pointed out the problem, and the state officer issued the sherriff a ticket. Though I still received mine.
If you were cited for passing a stopped school bus but the lights weren't flashing and the sign wasn't out can you fight it and will your rates go up?
You can fight this in court but it is your word versus the officer. The officer in question will most likely appear at your court date and make a case against you. Because this ticket is a moving violation, in most states this will mean points on your license. You should consult a lawyer, for about 3x the cost of the ticket a lawyer may be able to plea down to a non-moving violation with no points on your license.
