Are you friggen kidding me....Officer?

Well,

I got my first non-military speeding ticket today. I never counted the ones on base anyways.

I was at one of our local resevoirs driving over to the other side. The road can get a little busy on weekends with bikers, skaters, joggers...etc. I passed the cop/ranger and thought nothing of it till he threw on his lights. He then proceeded to read me the riot act and said I was endangering people with my careless driving.

Now for the part I found rather funny but also pissed me off. The posted speed limit around that part of the lake is 5 MPH. Well he clocked me at 7 MPH. To hear him go on you would have thought I was leaving a bank heist. I will go and pay my fine since I did pass 1st grade math and know that the aligator mouth points to the 7 instead of the 5, but damn. It is hard to keep my stick shift pickup under 5.
