    and here i bet he was hoping you wouldnt show up in court--but instead you end up giving him a ride there--too ironic

    Maybe, but I hardly ever miss unless tied up on something. He was decent and appreciative that I gave him a ride, because I could have let him fail to appear and have a license issue because of it. The way I looked at it was, I placed him OOS and he could not driver, it was my responsibility to get him there and he even told the judge about his bad luck. The judge found him guilty and reduced the fines for him. So I guess he made out pretty darn good. Free ride to court and a reduction in fines. :biggrin_255:

    well on his behalf i say thankyou for the ride--i am sure some people wouldnt have done it--just wish maybe he would have toned it down a bit after his first batch of tickets

    That is funny as hell.
    But it saved him the gas to get to the court house.

    I must say.... you are a rare DOT ossifer of the law.


    Did you let him ride up front like a man or in the *itch seat out back like the bad boy he was???? :biggrin_25523:

    Brickman,

    He rode up front. He tried but the judge wouldn't allow it because the citations were not in the system that quick. So he will be coming back in a few months, maybe we'll meet that day as well. :biggrin_2559:
     
    Brickman Thanks this.

    Because there are still companies that buy our receipts from us. The company I drive for reimburses our meals, showers, truck expenses ( pens, rulers, trash bags, etc...). However you need to consider this when cheating at your logs, receipts have date/time stamps .

    Otherwise you make it too easy on Desielbear and his cubs.
