Came too close for call about 10 years ago. My grandmother who I was very close to had been admitted to the hospital the night before my encounter with the LAW. My job was, and is, in a major teaching hospital. Luckily that day, didn't wear my scrubs to work, when we (hubby was driving, we commuted together) were pulled over doing 50 in a 30 mph zone. He told the cop a story about Grandma, and thank God he let us go on a warning, not seeing the lunch bags in the back seat.

Hubby was pulled over a few years ago, outside of Foxwoods casino. It was pitch black,and the trooper said he was in the wrong lane. We both played hookey that day, and went in to fight it. Turns out the cop had put the wrong time of day, along with other mistakes on the ticket. Hubby looked really nice in a new suit, and I was well dressed, so the guy took one look at us, and the ticket, after an explanation, and dismissed the fine!

Did have to go to traffic school once for running a red light. They had driving simulators, and during the "final exam" I ran over 3 kids and an old lady. Lucky the exam didn't count!
