Nonsense Asp, that's just not knowing one fact out of trillions out there, period.
Have you ever been pulled over by a cop - if so what were you doing?

I never drove a car but one night my husband and I were out and a Police
Officer pulled us over. As soon as I saw him I recognized him as the boy
I was dating years ago when I met my husband. As he got closer he said "I knew it was you as soon as I saw you dancing. I didn't realize anyone could see me sitting down dancing because it was dark. Then he said to my husband "I wish it was legal to give you a ticket for stealing my girlfriend, but sadly it isn't. So I stopped you just to say Hi. I will never forget that night.

We frame knowledge in different ways. For me I'm slightly less ignorant, but it appears as if that's nonsense to you. Whatever...
Asp, it was not a put down at all, you are not ignorant, sorry you read it that way.

After re-reading your post I can see how it can be seen the opposite of the way I took it. I apologize for reacting negatively and think I understand what you meant now.

I've had many in my early years, I had a lead foot when it came to driving. This ticket really got me mad. In the early 70's while I was stationed in California traveling on the freeway. The US had just decreased the speed limit on the interstates in all States to 55 MPH. I was caught by CHP radar doing 56 MPH. Yes I got a ticket and had to pay the fine. The City was Westminster, California, I will never forget it.
Ditto on the speed traps...Most Troopers here give the CDL drivers a pass unless the violation is excessive..Yokel locals do not!!
Back when I was 18 I was driving somewhere at night, got lost and ended up in an industrial complex where the speed limit was, I think, 25 MPH. I guess the reason I was speeding was because I was getting a little panicky at being lost. Anyway, a cop pulled me over for speeding and said, "I hate to give you this ticket". I just said, "do what you have to do", or something to that effect. He kept saying 2 or 3 more times how he really didn't want to give me a ticket and I started to get nervous that he wanted money or "special favors" (if you get my meaning) to get out of the ticket. Since I didn't have any money and I wasn't about to do him any "favors", he just sighed, gave me the ticket and left. I think I escaped something that would have been a good plot for Law and Order, SVU.
