OK, so I've always been one of those annoying people who NEVER gets a ticket, regardless of bad driving. That is, until these last two weeks. In the last two weeks, I've gotten TWO tickets. I know it's stupid. It's my own fault, right? If I had been going even close to the speed limit, I wouldn't be typing this now. But yeah, after two years of driving crazy fast to keep up with the traffic, the highway patrolmen have decided that they should teach me a lesson. Until this incident, I have always supported officers and been curious as to why people feel so negatively about them. The first one told me to stop crying, that it was only a ticket. Um, hello... let me steal $200 from your wallet and see how you feel. The second one informed me that he did indeed know that I had already received a ticket. Both were relative jerks. I mean, they weren't horrible... but at the end, they still gave me tickets. So they are not on my friend list. (I'm sure they'll be broken-hearted to hear that.) This is all the cause of profiling. They are PICKING ON ME because I'm blonde and drive a red bug. Neither time that I was pulled over was I the fastest person on the immediate road, but I was an easy enough target, so why not? I know, I know... enough whining. Back to work. |
