Wanna know something really embarrassing??? getting pulled over/ having to deal with the same cop 3 times with in the last 3 weeks! yup, that's what happened to me. The first time it was my fault. I barely tapped the back of this guys bumper and put a tiny scratch in it. ( So glad it didn't do anything to my baby Acura. ) ya I deserved it because I do tend to follow to close and now I learned my lesson. So $120 fine and that's the end of that. Then, about 8 days after that incident, I was hauling butt down 5th south in Bountiful because I was in a hurry. I was going 50 and the speed limit was 30. Flashing lights behind me, and what do ya know? same cop! He recognized my licence plate, so he made a comment about the week before. I gave him my info, he went to his car, turned right back around and he said "ya know, I would of given you a pretty hefty ticket but someone was hit on their motorcycle so I have to leave to go to them, just don't speed." I would of had like 300 dollars in fines this week! So he let me off. I was sooooo lucky. It is so hard to not speed in my car. brand new cars just drive so smooth, I cant help it! but I am trying to be better.... anyway, last night I was on my way to landons and I was stopped at an intersection on 4th north and 5th west. all the sudden, WHAM! I got rear-ended buy a 16 year old new driver. It totally Jared my neck back and forth a few times and I had pain in my neck. The cops come, and you guessed it, the same stinkin cop! I have vanity plates, and you cannot mistake my car if ya know what they say. First thing the cop said was "not you again!" (at least this wasn't MY fault this time!) There are only 2 bolt marks from the other cars licence plate on my bumper and that will get fixed. (my car is indestructible I guess) So for insurance reasons, my dad made me ride in the ambulance and go to the ER just to make sure I was OK. What a night! I'm nervous to drive now! last night brought back so many bad memories from when I was in a horrible accident about 5 years ago (that accident wasn't my fault either). They had to use the jaws of life, had to have surgery, it was very bad. Good thing new cars beep if ya don't wear your seatbelt, cuz honestly, i doubt I would wear it that much. I just hope that if I am ever pulled over or something, it isnt that same cop!


Hope all of you are enjoying your weekend!
