I keep telling myself it had to happen sometime. It just didn’t have to hurt so badly.
Yes, I got a speeding ticket. About 10 miles east of Council Grove, Kansas.
The locals all nodded their heads. Oh yes, that place where the speed limit drops from 65 to 55. A known speed trap.
I am not telling how fast I was going or how painful the ticket was. Let’s just say that that cashmere sweater I bought at Neiman-Marcus right before I left on this trip will have to be returned. I've still got the receipt.

Be careful not to just sign and send in your ticket with payment--you may get assessed points that way and it may affect your Florida license and insurance rates. (Unfortunately, I speak from experience, a speed trap on I-85 in North Carolina which is well-known to the locals.) Within a few days, your husband will be inundated with attorneys letters looking to represent you. Give one or two a call and see if they can get the charge reduced so you don't have any points on your record. And Laura is right, next time CRY!
Yeah, guys, well, I was wearing a skimpy top and that didn't help! This guy had absolutely no sense of humor or anything else. I think I made his quota for the decade.
