License and Registration Please
When I think of the police, I think of the group The Police; after all, I have their entire music catalogue. 
How ironic it would have been if I was listening to them this morning around 3am when a police cruiser came up behind me and turned on its lights.
Roxanne, you don’t have to turn on the red light.
Of course, my heart started racing and I started running through my brain, what did I do while the police officer was following me?
Too much information, running through my brain.
Was I speeding? Not really, I was going within 5 miles of the speed limit. Did I act recklessly? Well I did get out of my lane to avoid some road construction. Did I make a moving violation? I made sure I came to a complete stop at the one stop sign. It was right after I made my very cautious right hand turn that the lights went on.
The officer came to the car and asked if I knew why he pulled me over. Mmm, I answered honestly, no.
De do do do de da da da, is all I want to say to you.
Well long story short, he told me that my license plate light was out. I never would have guessed. So he told me to drive safely and I assured him that I would get it fixed. So I am off to buy the light bulb and put it in before tomorrow morning, at 3am, on a road in Durham, driving to work….I’ll be watching you, every breath you take every driving move you make…
