Pulled Over

I got pulled over today for running a stop sign. I didn’t really run it. I all but completely stopped. I don’t think I ever come to a complete stop when nobody is around. In the winter more so. The roads are glare ice. When I come to a complete stop it takes me a good 30 seconds to get enough traction to get moving again. Sure, that’s not a good excuse. I have no excuse. I didn’t come to a complete stop, but who does? On my way to lunch I saw five or six cars do exactly the same thing I did. Not to mention all the people that didn’t use their blinkers. They could seriously hire a hundred more cops and not cost the city any more money. My ticket was $100. It would be so easy for a cop to get five or six people in an hour. I saw that many people break the law in the fifteen minutes it took me to go out to lunch. Yeah, I am bitter right now. It just seem pretty petty for fining me $100 because I slowed down to 0.00000001 MPH and not o.ooooo.
