Speeding Ticket

I got my first ticket Thursday evening.

I was driving on East Main when I saw a cop car with lights flashing right behind me.

I figured the cops were chasing someone else and continued driving. Three minutes later, I figured that maybe they were chasing me!

So I pulled over and waited in my car for the officer to approach. He came over to me and said I was going at 40 on a highway, where the posted speed limit was 30 miles per hour.

I pleaded with him not to ticket me. But he apologized very nicely, saying even he had been ticketed when he was off-duty and this was his job. And then he proceeded to ticket me.

Now I'm to pay a $75 fine for being 10 miles over the official speed limit. Sucks!
