Default So I get stopped today while driving the Mini

I had dinner with Valky and CarolAnn after work, and on my way home, driving on the I-355 expressway, I get stopped by a State Trooper, and given a ticket....WTF

Anyone want to guess for what? I doubt that you can guess.

The first to guess why; I will buy you a drink in St. Louis....

Speeding is too obvious. No seat belts or no headlights with wipers on?

Tail light out
Failure to use turn signal while changing lanes
expired plate sticker
not wearing a seat belt
riding in the left lane continuously
not moving one lane over for a stopped police car.


After our conversation at dinner I'M GLAD IT WASN'T FOR SPEEDING

Not using a turn signal?

You had a brake light out?

Too much bling?

You're chrome was too blinding?

You had Valk in the car? Oh wait a minute, you and Valk could have talked your way out of that one.
