Default Got a speeding ticket today.....

... got one for doing 48. in a 45 zone. but since there was construction it was posted 30mph.. . but at least the cop was nice.. when he asked whey he pulled me over.. i said because my girlfriend ran away with a cop and i thought you were trying to bring her back... .. he laughed. and kept writing..

In HB, so many cops get involved in traffic stops, you'd think the offender had a meth lab in the trunk
