$200....

what it will cost us for the ticket Dave just got

for talking on his cell phone

while driving.

(yes, he knows it's against the law and yes, he has a blue tooth, but was driving our employees truck for one quick errand and his phone rang.......BUMMER.)

lesson to be learned.....IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU.

  1. Oh bummer! I wish it was a law here though-I've had lots of near misses with people chatting on their phones oblivious to the world around them.

  2. Argh! How annoying he got a ticket for a 2 second call. Although I can tell you how annoyed I get when I see people here still on their phones. However it's when they're driving like jerkfaces that I get mad. I've had to do the 2 second answer...

  3. OUCH! I didn't think there was a fine for a "first offense." I have to admit I've been a little lax about that myself lately. Lesson well learned. Sorry it cost you though. Dave, hang your head awhile. :o(

  4. If it isn't a phone directly on their ear, it'll be a phone in their lap while texting....or an iphone on the internet...or a book they're reading as traffic putters along. Not that I've ever had a book open while driving...I wouldn't do that. Nor would I drive with my knee while eating with one hand and reaching in the backseat to hand a kid something either. I wouldn't do those things.

  5. Hey April,
    Erin got one here in town and it was only $88. Maybe Dave will be as lucky. When Erin got his he ran a stop sign, wasn't wearing a seat belt and on the phone. Only gave his a ticket for the phone!

I heart comments! Just one rule that I'm sure your momma taught you...if you don't have anything nice to say...please don't say anything at all!
