Tuesday, the baby known as M had this horrible, croupy cough. I know, I know, she got it from daycare. I feel bad enough as it is, lets not make me feel worse.
I managed to get an appointment Tuesday to take her in.
I am admittedly flying down 441 to get home to get M, and I come over a hill, trooper sees me, and I know instantly that he is pulling me over. He sauntered to the car, literally.
FHP: "I pulled you over for doing 60 in a 45"
Me: ok, just trying to get home to to take my daughter to the doc.
FHP: Uh-huh
**I know this guy has heard them all, but I was telling the truth**
The husband known as J and I are know volleying all the things we shouldn't say to this guy:
J: Should I tell him I pay his salary? Tell him that he should go after the "real criminals"?
Me: No, no, no - tell him to prove it to me that I was speeding!!
J: OOHHHH! I am going to ask him why he isn't out raping immigrants (a Miami cop was just busted for doing so). Nooooo, I will ask him why he isn't stalking 14 year old boys and girls on the internet (another Miami cop was busted for that.).
FHP comes back to the car: Do you live in Florida?
Me: Yes, I live in Dania Beach
FHP: How long?
Me: Um, yeah, 2 years now.
FHP: Yeah, I'll be back.
After a very long time, he comes back and says "I am going to warn you about the speeding, but ticket you for not having a Florida DL."
I have to go to court to prove that I have gotten a FL dl.
Dammit!

Ok, I will start by saying slow down and you won't have these types of encounters with the police. Secondly, not all police are rapists, child sex deviants, so don't generalize as to ask the one who stops "you" for speeding if he has commited a criminal offense. I think it is pathetic that you cannot accept your fault here! People like you should not only be ticketed for speeding, but you also deserve a beating. Get a life.
OK, I will start by saying this, the reason he didn't ticket me for speeding is because I have never had a traffic offense before. Never, not one.
Second - did you read or skim my post? My husband and I were saying things we SHOULD NOT say to a cop. We never said these things to him. In other words, it was a joke amongst us, in the car, WAAAAY out of earshot of the trooper.
Just because I didn't say "yes, I was doing 60" (I was, for real!), does not mean that I am not accepting fault. I was TOTALLY guilty, but obviously not a repeat offender, because I got a warning.
One of my closest friends is a cop in Illinois. He and I have been friends for 14 years. I have the utmost respect for officers. So, I deserve a beating for making light of my situation? I think not.
It's YOU that needs a life tc. You trying to flame people on their blogs is clearly not working for you.
Wow! The "tc" is an asshole! What was FHP? Do I dare say what I think it is?? :D
That did sound like some shit. Although, i assume there's no points for lack of the state's license? If that's the case, you did get lucky ;)
For the record? I think 90% of cops are shitheads.
