Car Troubles

Yesterday afternoon, three blocks from home, I became a law-breaker. Correction: I got caught breaking the law...allegedly. I say stop, you say rolling stop moving violation. Too bad people were flying past as the 5-0 was writing up my ticket. Where was your backup, Officer Sneakypants!?!!
Crap. Under the counsel of my good friends and fellow perps, I learned that there are many excuses for such behavior. One who has gotten away with 5 moving violations described how she once talked a cop out of the accusation. Their conversation went something like this:
-You didn't stop at that stop sign, Miss.
-Yes, I did.
-Um, no, you didn't.
-I did. And then I pulled up further into the intersection.
-Uh...no [insert Jedi mind trick]...ok. You did stop at the stop sign.
