Got a ticket!

[thermal]

Well after being out to sea for week, I decided to not come to work early.... bad move. I still had to be at work by 7AM and it was already 6:10 on the clock to consider a 22 mile drive and a 5 minute walk to the ship in a 30-40 degree wind chill. So I hauled a$$ driving my 1/4 tank Teg. Jumped onto the highway and not realizing I was speeding..... I looked at the speedo it was 105MPH. I had to merge into another loop so I dropped my speed. Then I realized that a car is riding pretty close to my a$$. So I hit the gas a little bit more to keep the focker off me. At this time, I was actually driving with the traffic flow. Then suddenly, the light flashes. The state trooper was behind me. I calmly pulled over to the side. I was very calm, thinking to myself, after all the multiple stupid stunts I pulled off the street and highway, the cops finally got me. I was more worried about showing up late for work.

The trooper came up to me as I pull out my DL and registration. He asked me why I was speeding. I asked him what time it was. He said 6:30AM. I said that I have to be at work by 7:00AM. I also added that I was not comfortable with people driving close to my car. He agreed that he did got a little close. He asked me why I didnt wake up early to go to work. I answered by asking him if he ever served in the NAVY. He said no, then I told him that he wouldnt understand....... nicely. He also told me that my exhaust is too loud and that my car is way low. I just said okay......

He took his sweet a$$ time filling up the paperwork. It was already 6:30 and I'm still about 10 miles from work. He got out of his car with the paperwork. He said that he was pacing me at 75/55...... I thought to myself, not bad considering I was going faster than that. He also told me that I would've been cited with "reckless driving" (since over 15MPH here in considered that) but I was polite. He said that he realized that my registration is fairly new meaning that I had just purchased the car. He went ahead told me to get my car raised up to normal and replace the exhaust.

Overall, I got off easy. 75/55 and no modification ticket. He said to call a number to send the fine. No court date. I still made it to work by 6:50 AM...... I guess I need to learn my lesson.
