Pet Peeve #17

How come people slow down to 60 mph when there is a cop hiding in the median? The speed limit is sixty-five. He is not going to pull you over for doing the speed limit! He's not even going to pull you over for the rebellious, hell-raising, your-mother-taught-you-better speed of 70 mph, so what's the deal?

Are cops really that scary? Do you have a pathological fear of cops? Men in uniform? Flashing blue and red lights?

Maybe you're from L.A. and suffering post traumatic stress disorder.

Maybe it's a guilty conscience. Are you on probation? Driving on a suspended license? Did you leave your stash in the trunk?

OR ARE YOU JUST STUPID?
