So...

I got myself pulled over today. For the first time since I got my license, which was February 1, 1995. So I almost made 11.5 years before getting pulled over for the first time. Of course, if I hadn't decided to go to Berkeley to (a) get tapioca tea and (b) see if [livejournal.com profile] luns was around (I forgot he's in Asia), my streak might still be living.

Luckily, it is a fix-it ticket, not a ticket for violating the rules of the road (y'know, like speeding or running a red). For one thing, it's cheaper. :) For another, it gets fixed, and then it's not a problem.

More about the day later.

One of those isn't, AFAIk, a moving violation. :)

What happened -- headlight out, ro tail light? ;)

Left brake light!

My dad hopes it's just a burnt out bulb.

And it has a section of the California Vehicle Code cited, so it's technically a moving violation. But it's a minor one that does not go on the DMV record, which is cool.

never get pulled over for a random license check? I must look suspicious or something, and get pulled over about once every three to six months. That IS an amazing record. Of course, it all depends on how much you actually drive. My present commute is about 100 miles, round trip, every day.

I miss Tapioca Tea, I think there is a place downtown that sells it, I may have to go find it. I am sad to say I have had plenty of moving violations, fix it and otherwise...every time it is still a bummer and a hassel to deal with.

Tapioca Tea!

I haven't had bubble tea in YEARS!

Next time, take me with you.

Or let's find a place here in Sacto that sells it.
