Driving While Innocent. STUPID ROUND PLANET!

[Brian37]

I have a friend in Pakistan named Mustafa, whom I call on FB upon occasion. Just now, I got hold of him, and he told me about a prior call I made to him, which he answered while driving, which got him pulled over and ticketed. With friends like me, who needs enemas?

I actually agree with distracted driving pull overs. But it still sucks to know I was the cause of him answering his cell, which caused his police to pull him over.

He made the choice.

He made the choice.

Way to ruin a funny story.

Of course it was his choice. But I still laugh at the fact my timing sucked as for him to feel that a potential call was that important to answer. Even he was razzing me about the event.

My middle name isn't "Buzz Kill" for nothing.

I can remember one point last year when Dad called me while I was driving to my therapist's and he forgot that I had an appointment that day, so, while I was on a busy street, I took the initiative to find a parking lot I could pull over into and tell him "Make the explanation you are about to give for calling me while I'm driving phoenomenally good." He hung up. We talked about it later, after I came home, but I don't even remember what he was calling about, just that he tried to tell me about something and forgot that I'd be driving.

That is a Super Bowl  MVP response right there!

More a Blackadder response. It came directly from "Beer" from Blackadder II, when Baldrick decided to take Edmund's command to "get the door" too literally. I'd give you a clip, but it's not on Youtube, so I'll include a quotes.net page.

Did he tell you what the penalty was?  Here, it's $80 and 20 demerit points (which seems light - should be more).
