I was driving this weekend and got stopped by a very nice policewoman who gave me a $300 ticket. I was able to go to the courthouse today get it “pardoned”. We are going to have a little contest here…can anyone guess what might have warranted a $300 ticket? I might even give out a prize if someone comes up with the right answer. 🙂
$300 Fine

was it that you couldn’t provide proof of insurance?
incomplete stop at stop sign or stop light.
I was going to guess a school zone. But Rose (who has an attorney husband) said “Driving without proof of insurance. If you prove you had it within 10 days, it’s pardoned 🙂 .” So can I ‘ditto’ her answer. :o) Marcia
Speeding in an unmarked work zone. They double the fines there, you know.
I bet it was the insurance thing, too, but I’m trying to be creative.
You kidnapped a foreign dignitary from a diplomatic convention and were holding her for ransom but they pardoned you because she turned out to be an out of work Jazz singer from New Jersey who just wanted a nice cup of tea.
Or perhaps you didn’t have your license with you when you were stopped.
has anyone gotten it right?
And the answer is….I couldn’t provide proof of insurance. I was driving Sean’s car. He keeps his insurance card in his wallet. I keep mine in my car, that’s a problem when you aren’t driving your car. No problem, I went to the courthouse on Monday and showed them that I do have insurance. Oh, and now I keep the insurance card with me. 🙂
