    I tried that defense when HR wanted to fire one of my drivers that was in day 89 or his 90 day probation. He got the axe for a late delivery because the ramp to the customer was closed and he had to go 15 miles further to get safely turned around. They still canned him and that was probably the beginning of the end for me.

    You haven't seen anything until you've seen a little lady driving here Civic with her knees eating a bowl of cereal at 45 miles an hour. Talk about distracted. Sandwiches are hardly a distraction!

    Why does it surprise you? There's a lot of people who aren't grown up in anything they do.

    When he asked me "do you know why I pulled you over?" I'd just have to say in my best Gabriel Iglesias voice, "Cause you can smell it!"

    I think the ticket evolved from the violator being from Alabama.
    Maybe the driver married his own sister,and the cop had dibs
    on her.He then staked out Mc donalds knowing they would show
    up for one of their three meals that day.
    I should be a redneck forensic cop.I just slam dunked this one..:toothy3:

    Correct kind of device although not a butterfly, she had cloth wrapped around her ankles also, it was just unbelievable, imho. I did of course help being a gentleman and all, well after I got up off the ground laughing.

    I was just amazed....

    I'm sure there is a lot that folks do while driving that you guys see, PJ.

    What happened to singing to the radio with maybe a little air guitar at worst?
