1) A person shouldn't drive faster than
the speed limit says they should, I learned this the hard way.
|
2) It was the kind of night when you've
got to be crazy to be driving in the first place, dark, foggy, and snow
was falling.
|
3) That didn't stop me, though, I was
on a mission.
|
4) You'd never have guessed that before
today my driving record was spotless if you could have seen me dodging
in and out of the traffic on the interstate through the mountains like
I was Jeff Gordon on the last lap of the Daytona 500, and no matter if
a person honked or "flipped the bird" or flashed their lights at me because
they didn't appreciate me riding their bumpers or changing lanes with blatant
disregard for their safety or my own, I still kept on driving as though
there wasn't a speed limit, like there wasn't bad weather, and as if I
hadn't already gotten a ticket for not having my seat belt buckled, especially
since I usually do that.
|
5) I saw blue lights in my rearview mirror.
This wasn't good. I pulled over on the shoulder. The cop got
out of her car. She asked for my license and registration.
|
6) You wouldn't believe how my hands were
shaking when I couldn't find my registration. Like I'd been stopped
for armed robbery. And was guilty.
|
7) Even if you're innocent, a person gets
nervous when they have to deal with cops.
|
8) The officer asked what was my rush.
I said I had to use the bathroom. She didn't seem to believe me.
A couple minutes later, she did believe it, though, believe you me.
|
9) A person always hopes their judge is
fair, sympathetic, and best friends with their parents. Not necessarily
in that order.
|
10) You have to admit, this is pretty
silly.
