Okay, I have to be up front and let Chris know that I met the COOLEST cop last week. I gave him such a hard time on another thread-I can't find it, or else I'd link it. Someone try to find it for me please?
Anyway, this guy was a Medford NJ cop and I was making a delivery of some drug that generates red blood cells to a chick who is doing chemo. She lives way back in the Pineys, and the roads back there are all twisty and turny and a real blast to drive. Except that they are limited to 25 mph. I got done the delivery, and was headed to Willingboro to do another delivery, and was going around a corner at about 55 when I saw the guy and I knew I was nailed. So I kept going until he drove up behind me and turned his gumballs on, and I pulled over.
The dude was cool. He asked me about my job, and why I was driving a car when I had a CDL, and what we did at the office. He went back to his car, ran my license, the plate and registration, and came back and said that he could write me up for going 20 MPH over the posted speed limit, and that would be 4 points and a 400 dollar surcharge. I said "Yeah, I know, you nailed me go ahead and do what you gotta do." So he said "I saw you weren't wearing your seatbelt right?" I said "That's right, I wasn't wearing my seatbelt" (I was, but he wanted to give me a break.) And he gave me a ticket for not wearing a seatbelt. It's not a moving violation, so I don't get any points on my license, and instead of paying a 400 dollar fine, the ticket cost me 48 bucks.
Cool dude.
Sorry for being such an ass Chris.
