On my way to work this morning (running late) I got pulled over doing 80 in a 60 (I-30 and Eastchase). This exchange follows...
Officer: "Good morning, how are you?"
Me: "Doing well, just running a little late."
(Shows me the radar gun)
Officer: "80 in a 60. License and registration."
Me: "Yes sir."
(Hands it over)
Officer: "I'll be right back."
(Comes back and hands me my ticket and a brochure about not speeding)
Officer: "Sign this, it is not an admission of guilt. You have 11 days to appear in court."
Me: "Yes sir. Thank you, be safe."
I wasn't threatened. I wasn't assaulted. I wasn't tased or shot. I took my lumps and went about my day.
Isn't it amazing what happens when you're not an ***hole to an officer?
