Not exactly how I wanted to start the new year

This morning on my way to work I got pulled over for speeding. Apparently I was doing 28 MPH in a 15 MPH school zone. The crazy part is, I drive through that same school zone every day on my way to work. I’m a bit of a speed Nazi when it comes to school zones. So, I must have totally just spaced out this morning as I was driving through that area. The motorcycle officer didn’t pull me over right away. I was at least a mile away before he pulled up behind me at a stop light. I saw him in my rear view mirror and didn’t give it a second thought. Then, the light turns green and on went his lights. My jaw must have dropped open. I had zero idea why he was pulling me over. But, if he says I was speeding, I was probably speeding.
Care to guess what it costs to be pulled over for doing 28 in a 15 (school zone)? If you guessed $297, you’d be right. Ouch. That stings.
I was trying to remember back to when the last time I had been pulled over was. Well, I was pulled over a few months back for an expired registration, but didn’t get a ticket. But, the last time I got a moving violation was more than 10 years, and probably more like 15 years ago.
Man that sucked.
