This Can Only Happen by the Coast...

My neighbor was pulled over the other day for a misdemeanor DWB: Driving While Beautiful.

Last month, after tons of car accidents, the city installed several "no left turn" signs at key intersections off the main highway here in town. Fair enough. Very often, locals used ditch onto these side streets to bypass the main highway. Anyway, the signs are very visible.

My neighbor, Y, made an illegal left turn there just last week. The cop followed her to her apartment and let her off with just a verbal warning. She took it well and the cop was on his way. I want to add that my neighbor is a stunning 6 ft tall blonde fitness model. Men are reduced to wibbling 13-year-olds in her presence. She is quite beautiful.

An illegal left turn is a moving violation, usually remedied by fines and traffic school.

On the other hand, I got pulled over and cited for...a tail light that had gone out. I am not blonde, nor am I a 6 ft. tall fitness model. I got a $25.00 fix-it ticket, with a $10.00 "processing fee" attached. Driving While Plain, I suppose.

My neighbor? Cited for Driving While Beautiful.

Only at the coast.
