56 in a 40. At 1am. One other car on the road- the cop. Why did I speed when there was only a cop on the road? Because I never saw Crown Vic headlights. The fucker cheated and was in an Expedition. He wrote the ticket for my speeding on the one road, but waited til I turned onto another and drove a few miles to actually pull me over. I was apparently doing 60 in that 45, but my speedo clearly read 57 (it matches every speed sign Ive encountered, mph for mph). I should be thankful that he didnt write me a second ticket for road #2, really. And I am. Im also happy that my friend got on my ass a few weeks ago about using my turn signals..she probably saved me another ticket. Im also happy he didnt see the front of my car- I have no front plate (illegal in TX). So now I have to show up at their courthouse in the next four days before I move off to school. I really hope I can keep this one off my record; Ive already got a 77 in a 40 (dont ask
) and a 54 in a 40...Im thinking I should just steer clear of 40mph zones. But my job wont like this at all- Papa Johns (dont say a word, I deliver in one of the top 5 richest areas in the nation- FAT tips) has a three strikes and youre out rule. This is number three. A good note- I called another friend and he gave me a number of a lawyer he used last time he got a ticket. He still payed a fine, but he kept it off his record (and out of his parents knowledge
). All in all a shitty night, but it could have been worse.
One GREAT thing about tonight was the cop I encountered before this one.
I was at a light. All of a sudden I see the ominous headlight shape of a Ford Crown Victoria. At first, I think hey, that looks like a Crown Vic..cop maybe? so I look at my side mirror and see a spotlight sitting above his left mirror. Why hello there, Mr. Cop! I seeee you! So he tails me for a mile or two til I get to the city border. Meanwhile, Im being Mr. Perfect- turn signals at least 100 ft from the turn, right foot light as a feather (especially since I got exhaust), you know, that shit they told you in Driver's Ed
So we get close to the border and he changes lanes to pass me on the left. As he goes by, I can see the look on his face and it is indeed a frustrated one. That gave me quite the chuckle. So at the next light, this asian kid in a Camry revs at me...with the cop right fucking next to me!
That damn kid was the reason I was in such a hurry (I normally keep it below 10 over) cuz I wanted to tell him how fucking stupid he was...
One more thing- You guys probably know me for defending cops in general, but after Ive really modified my car this summer (tint(illegally dark), exhaust(a tad loud), lights(blacked out front end)) Im starting to really dislike the extra attention they seem to give modified cars..
