Short answer, no.

Much more fun fancy answer, I've gotten a ride home in the back of a cop car, but I wasn't actually arrested. Maybe I was lucky, since I was kinda pretty much completely dressed like a hooker from a Christmas party I was heading home from, and I didn't have any form of ID on me. I think the officer felt sorry for me because he woke me up by shining a very bright flashlight in my face (and making me stand out in 20 degree weather weraing NOTHING while we waited for a second cop car... ass.) My passed out butt was being carted home in my friends shiny new truck... which, earlier, I kindly broke in for him by vacating the content of my stomach all over the interior.

So...we should all make sure we're arrested at least once, so our fingerprints are on file?

Hmm...maybe that gives me the excuse I need to murder my old boss...

No. Sorry. Just traffic tickets. (Let's not talk about how many.)

Well, you're on the road more. But I bet I've been driving longer. So it may even out....

I've only been pulled over in my truck twice...although, I've gotten umpteen parking tickets.

Most of my speeding and Seatbelt (etc) infractions were in my personal vehicles.

No. I'm not bragging...actually, it drives the wife crazy how slow I normaly drive nowadays, unually 90-95 on the highway, 60-65 in a 70 zone...and right around 50 in a residental zone.

the seatbelts...well...we're not required to wear them while working, so I quite often...okay..I USUALLY forget to wear it in my personal vehicle, but the kiddies are usually on my case about that.

Drew, in the 15 seconds or so that it took me to realize you were talking kph instead of mph I nearly had a heart attack!

I can do the conversions as long as I know what I'm converting between.

When I was 15.....I was living in a very small town in Iowa that had a curfew....anyone under 16 had to be off the streets by 11p unless accompanied by a parent, sibiling over 21 or other legal guardian. It wasn't really a biggie. The only thing I was really sweating was my mother and she started laughing at me when she came to pick me up so it was all ok in the end.

I got the bus to and from London on a trip last year and at that height you can see right into the truckers' cabs, it was quite frightening. Most of them were watching a laptop while driving and I even saw one guy who had one hand on his laptop and both feet on the dash. I'm just thankful the other hand was on the wheel.
