Add a couple of traffic schools, and my record stayed clean.
That's the thing he didn't give me a ticket! He congratulated me on my degree and I was off in less than 3 minutes! He probably knew the grad ceremony was only another two exits up and I told him I was 30 mins late already. Guy just cut me a break didn't want me to miss the event. I'm just thankful because that was a 'go directly to jail and do not pass go' type of ticket!

Now next week on the other hand, I have to court for the last passport mishap..
