Hasn't cost me anything more than taking the time off work. I received a bad speeding ticket - a car was passing me on the inside right lane as I was in middle lane in my truck. 1 hour at the courthouse to get a trial date set, 1:45 minutes day of trial. Zero cost, zero points. Wife got a ticket for honking her horn at a police officer that was pulling into her lane (to keep him from hitting her). It made him mad so he pulled her over. She didn't even have to go back on the second day as the court threw it out - Judge said it was "a good cop with a bad temper". Dismissed.

Huh? :mrgreen:

I think of jobs where a "bad temper" might be considered a desirable thing, but LEO doesn't come immediately to mind. :???:

Oh well....no telling what the judge meant. Glad the case was dismissed.

I believe we really should move this to "Off-Topic" just to give everyone a chance to vent...

I can picture in my mind a lot of folks just typing this stuff in and it just cracks me up...

BTW, I got pull over for breaking the speed limit on I-10 a week before I was laid off (horrible timing!) and the officer came up and identified himself to me...

"Good afternoon sir, I'm officer Bling-Bling with the Houston Police Department..."

I said, "No kidding!" :smilelol5:

His reaction: :shock: :mad5

See...When you reside yourself to getting a ticket...It really goes a lot smoother...

What I need to do is not be such a pill, and learn to not pop off and keep my mouth shut...

A task which would appear to be impossible.
.. ;-)

Yes, well.........having the "right to remain silent" and having the "ability" to do so....can be two different things. ;-)

You'll learn eventually.
