i’m a *tiny* bit behind on paying my car registration. ok, maybe it’s not exactly a tiny bit. kind of more like six and a half months. i keep meaning to pay it… but unfortunately it hasn’t happened yet. today i was driving on the freeway and noticed this cop following me for a while. crap. luckily, for once, i am driving well below the posted speed limit. as the cop keeps following me, a car proceeds to miss its exit, and does this totally illegal maneuver to cut over to the exit. at this point the cops lights turn on… but instead of pulling over the driver who cut me off and was driving totally recklessly, the cop pulls me over to give out a ticket for registration. *sigh*. also, it turns out that legally they are allowed to tow my car away after my registration has been expired for 6 months. “i wouldn’t park your car on any public streets if i was you. you might come back and find your car to be missing” doh!
