My first ticket since 1992

I was heading to Denton this morning, driving down 380, and got lit up by Denton PD.

The officer walks up to my car and says "I'm SGT ...... with the Denton Police Department. Can I see your license and insurance, please?"

I hand him my DL, CHL, and insurance. Luckily, I had gotten my car inspected 3 days ago - it had expired in August. He looked at the CHL, compared the address with the address on my DL, and asked if I had my weapon on me. "Yes, sir".

He then handed me back my CHL.

"Do you know what the speed limit is on this road?"

"No, sir. To be perfectly honest, I wasn't paying attention." Hey, honesty is the best policy, right?

"Well, I clocked you doing 75 in a 60 MPH zone. Sign here, please." My speedometer must be off, because when he lit me up I looked down and it showed 80.

I signed the ticket, he thanked me for my courtesy, and I now get to take defensive driving. :smilelol5:
