So I went to my friend's college graduation party yesterday, he lives ~ 2 hours away. No biggie. Me and two other friends all hopped in my car and headed on up. Good time at the party then we were heading back today. Got pulled over on the way home. I'm 21 and I'd never been pulled over before. I'll not deny I was doing almost 80 in a 65 and probably deserved to be pulled over, but 5 years of a flawless driving record, I made no excuses and just flat out admitted we'd been driving awhile and just wasn't paying enough attention to the speedometer. (I'd been fluxing between 65 and 80 the whole way, hilly roads) I had my liscence and insurance stuff ready for him when he got to the car, I was polite and didn't argue. I was hoping beyond all hope he might let me off with a warning since it was my first offense, but I didn't expect a $95 dollar ticket. My friend in the car's been busted 4 times for 15 mph over on the highway and never gotten more than $75. I am generally not happy. I know there's nothing I can do really, but I just needed to vent. I'll pay it because I was speeding and I broke the law or whatever, but I would have thought he might have cut me a little slack. grr.

Oh, and I think the fact that I had a tshirt on that said I [heart] DRUGS didn't help. I should have explained I was a pharmacy student and it was a school shirt.


Just needed to vent. hmpf.


/$95 poorer.
