Lucky Day

This morning, driving to work via my normal route, I slowed down at a Stop sign near my house. Seeing that no traffic was coming, I rolled through and continued on my way. Unfortunately, the one car off in the distance was a local police officer who was soon behind me with his lights flashing. Not exactly the best start to the day...but after reviewing my licence, registration etc he decided to let me off with a warning. So other than having to endure 5 minutes parked there with all passers-by staring at you, no damage was done. You really don't have any secrets though - while waiting for my details to get processed, I received a call from a friend to offer his "support" after he had driven by and seen me there. It was nice to be able to report the good news from the stop and not the amount of money I could have lost!
