Oops- I Did It Again

I wanted to introduce y'all to the FOUR new cops I have met since our move to Iowa.

#1- Met this one last fall, he was super nice... and D was actually driving so this doesn't really count against me personally. He gave us a warning.


#2- I was almost home from my Atlanta road trip last month- this guy busted me in MO about 4 hours from home. He DID NOT give me a warning however.


#3- This happened about 1 week after #2- and this nice guy only gave me a warning.


#4- Yesterday- about 3 miles from home. Can you believe this cop's printer was not working, so he did not issue me a citation??? OMG! he said, "well this is your lucky day."


Lucky Indeed.

I am NEVER speeding again. I am officially aware that my luck has probably run out after this.......4 cops and only 1 ticket.

God I hate you. I got stopped for speeding one time in the last 25 years and got a ticket.

You must be a helluva lot younger/cuter/nicer than me. Yeah, that's it.

I KNEW you took after me in some way - but you almost got a ticket for me when you told the Smyrna, GA cop that it wasn't fair that I didn't get tickets - when you were what, 17? And remember your very first ticket? In Panama City? When your license was so new it was just paper?!!!

#4 My how things have been so computerized, remember my friend getting pulled over near New Orleans in 1982, the cop had to call for back-up, to write the ticket, he couldn't read or write. This was a state cop! So I guess when they say computers make our lives easy, they are talking Diane.

I cannot believe you are taking photos of these guys and they are letting you off... our local dude has NOT got a sense of humour like that. There would be a seperate ticket issued for it I am sure... he used a siren and flashing lights to stop someone on a MOPED in town the other day, going about 10km/hr. I kid you not...
