Son of a..... Where's the instant Replay?
Driving on Roosevelt, the speed limit is 35mph. I was going the speed limit, and I had my seat belt on. The light turned yellow at Lorraine, and I had no option but to go thru it, as there was a car close behind me. So I did. Next thing I know, the siren lights are on behind me, and a cop is pulling me over. Ok. He tells me I just ran a red light. I tell him it was yellow. He said he was gonna give me a ticket for running a red, end of discussion.
Funny thing is, the first thought that came to mind was "Well let's just look at the instant replay. I KNOW that the light was yellow, you can't run a red light on Roosevelt and Lorraine and not get hit by cross Traffic. The instant replay will show the light was hardcore in the middle of being yellow".
As soon as the thought entered my mind, I realized I wasn't playing on national television, and there was no instant replay. SON OF A ....... I've decided to take this as a good sign that I've been watching too many sports on ESPN. I'm gonna go outside and get some fresh air.

Dad -
You should have gotten a ticket. Really. I got caught in a speed trap in WIS - 75 in a 55...$209.30
First speeding ticket in 10 years!!! I'm much cuter than you and I got the freakin' ticket.
i think we should all take hang gliders every where, therebye avoiding lights, tickets, cops, and the wide variety of other problems that plague us while driving our cars!
only you mr. Watson only you
well I would also like to have instant replays in life I would not get in so much trouble

hey Mr. Watson after living here in Bolivia I mean, it´s a yellow light you can still make it no matter what and cops wouldn´t stop you here, but the States is a whole new thing so yu better watch out for cops yuo can´t bribe them like here.
