i have been driving only two years, and have had my share of run-ins with the law.....this happend today
i was working for my engineering company and they sent me to the post office with several metered letters to send out. the post office is directly across the street from my high school. so im driving down the hill towards the p.o. than my phone rings, its my job telling me that i dont need to run an extra errand and that i can return to the office after i mail the stuff. so i put the phone down, pull into the office, and as i am about to get out of the car, a cop walks up to me and says "hey take it easy." im like uhhh whats goin on. he says "you didnt see me behind you". i said "no, i was looking at the road". so he procedes to tell me i was on the phone. i was like "yes, you see these packages, im working right now and my job just called me." apparently this wasnt good enough so he takes my license and goes to his car which he had blocked me in with. at this point i knew he was wrighting a ticket.
so he comes back, hands me the ticket and the first thing i say is "dude, this is f***ing bull***t." hes like what you were on your phone. I said "yea, im working and my job just called me, its not like i was on the phone with my girlfreind". then he says well your on ur phone and theres the kids(from the high school because there is a deli up the road) walking on the sidewalk. what would happen if you werent paying attention? I said " yea i am one of those kids. you see that biulding there(pointing to school), i go there and i walk this street everyday. And , i dont have the money seeing how all of it i make goes into into my college fund for next year." he says "o ur still in high school? what kinda grades you get?" so i tell him a's and b's. then he says"where ya goin to college?" so i told him most likely farmingdale on long island"
then, it got weird. he says "tell ya what.....plead not guilty on the ticket and bring your acceptance letter to court and ill take care of this."
the whole time this is happening everyone that knows me is hanging out the windows of the school screaming "YEA BOOTH!!!!" (thats my last name)
im surprised i even got him to listen to me considering i am a major wise a$$
good thing i still have the acceptance letter

The cop was like "Is this a contour". Im like yeah. He says "It doesnt look like a contour" I told him it is, but it's the SVT so it looks a bit different. Explained same people that make the Lighting and Cobra. He had no friggin clue what I was talking about, obviously wasnt a car lover so of course I still got the ticket. The End.
so it is dependent upon me getting it dropped for me to keep drving the stang.
That took some convincing on my part to get the cop to believe me.
