A crying woman actually is traffic ticket deterrent. Who knew?
I wasn't crying to get out of the ticket; I was stressed out, had overslept, the client was in from Wisconsin (and had just told me the day previous that "tardiness is (his) number one pet peeve." I was going five over the speed limit, and someone merged and cut me off. I stuck my middle finger out the window, and guess who saw that middle finger and thought it was directed at him? Yes, it was a cop.
Dude hits his SIREN and his lights, and I pulled over right then and there so that he'd have nothing else against me.
I pulled out all of my information and handed it to him, but began having a minor panic attack (did he REALLY have to hit the siren?) and crying. I tried to compose myself, and he went back to his car. He sat there for thirty minutes, head in hands. He came back and handed me my license, registration, and insurance information.
He was like, "Here's your stuff. Just drive safe. Don't get in an accident." Then got in his car and quickly drove off. No written warning. No ticket. Nothing.
I was REALLY ****ing late, though.
