Default Yikes!

Had to go to Traffic Court today for a ticket doing 50 mph in a 40 mph zone. If you plead guilty ,you can go to Traffic School and it is not turned into the state or your insurance. No points on your DL. I was supposed to be there at 8:30 . I leave the house at 7:15 for what should have a 30 minute drive . After fighting Nashville traffic , I get in the courtroom at 8:28. And who do they call first? Yep , me. This could have been a really lousy day for me. Skin O' my teeth!

Been there done that... Driving school sucks. The judge didnt even give me a chance they made me go to driving school. It prolly did help either that I was doing 35mph over the speed limit. Once I got into the class the instructor wrote on these 3 things on the chalk board.
1. Driving is the most dangerous thing you'll do on a daily basis
2. Always wear your seat belt.
3. Always pay attn. While driving
He said " You learn these 3 things then you've learned all I want you to learn tonight." So I had to sit there for another 3:15 without saying a word. It was boring. Bt at least it didnt go on my record or Ins. Have fun!!
