I'm a little disappointed he didn't tell you that that highway was a drug corridor. I got pulled over in the middle of nowhere, Ohio, last year and was told that. Though, the deputy just gave me a warning. I think he tagged me at 9 over.lorin wrote:Welllll ..............I didn't want anyone to have a worse impression of me than they already do. We were going through the town of Hurricane, Utah. I was doing a cool 72 in a 55. Yep - got pulled over. I think that is where I let Mike down. He had such high expectations. He wanted it all. He wanted the princess to pull over and do the whole rant thing. He wanted an NYPD attitude from the cop. He wanted the full monty. But I'm too smart to land my ass in jail. So I got out of the car and said to the cop that I was totally wrong, that I was speeding and I apologized. I bated my road bleary eyes and asked for forgiveness. So the officer, who was disappointingly nice and friendly, reduced the ticket to under 10 miles over the limit, thereby cutting the fine from 250ish to 120. I then thanked the nice man and we went on our way.ussusimiel wrote: P.S. Did lorin mention that I got to tick my 'interaction with the authorities' box on my 'Fest wish list?
$120 seems like a steep fine for under 10 over. I suppose you were pressing your luck if you tried to get a warning.
