You know what really grinds my gears?

People who assume things

Non adult girl?  You've an awful tongue on you for a young cutty...

When you reverse out of your drive and crash into a car parked outside your house.  Not a good start to the day. I have an exam in an hour, can't see anything that I revised coming up now.

When you park your car safely and some wally reverses into it.

Seing a Ford Crown Victoria appearing in your mirror on the freeway at night and you slow to the speed limit thinking it's a cop.  Then you move over and he passes you - turns out to be a taxi!

I got caught a beaut in Phoenix one time doing that Eamonn. Driving along about 5 miles above the limit after GAA training at about 9 at night. Next thing saw the outline behind me, slowed to exactly the limit, he stayed behind me for about 5 minutes. I kept checking him in my rear view mirror saying "Go on you fecker, turn off".

Next thing the lights flash, and the Dooooopp sound. So I pull over and wonder what the feck I did. Cop comes over and says I was 20 mph over the limit, and I was shocked, no way says I, I saw you in the mirror. I was conscious of my speed.

You were he said, smiling, except you were so busy watching us you never noticed you were going into a construction zone limit, 20mph. License and registration please sir.

Feckers.

Sickening thing was I was chasing the 2 yr old cub around the place and not actually doing any packing or moving like I should've been doing. The wife has 2 weeks to go before she pops so we're gettin feck all done and to top it all off have to go to a 2 yr old's birthday party now!!

[Dougal Maguire]

Mmm, that puts a different perspective on things. Get well soon and good luck to you and the wife

Why would he challenge it? He was caught fair and square.

[Eamonnca1]

If the cop doesn't show up for the court appearance then the judge will automatically drop the ticket.  Cops write so many tickets that they seldom have time to follow up with court appearances, they just hope that most drivers will pay the fine so save the hassle and go to traffic school to keep it off their records. If you challenge the ticket then you're taking a chance though, because if the cop does show up then you're gonna have some explaining to do to the judge so you'll need to have a story ready, and you'll have to pay the fine anyway for he'll surely find you guilty unless you come up with something clever.
