SO..

I "TOTALED" MY DAUGHTER-COLLEEN'S "NISSAN VERSA" WHILE WE WERE IN TUCSON FOR HER BROTHER-JD'S GRADUATION ABOUT 3-WEEKS AGO..

I "MISTOOK" A GREEN-"LIGHT"..
FOR A GREEN-"ARROW"..

& TURNED "ACROSS" 3-LANES OF TRAFFIC..

THAT "HAD" THE RIGHT-OF-WAY..

I GOT "NAILED"

ON THE PASSENGER-SIDE "REAR"-WHEEL..

& IT WAS "TOTALED"..

& IT WAS "ENTIRELY" MY FAULT..

"&"..

EVEN "WORSE"..

I MADE "THIS" MORON-MOVE..

WITH MY "MOM" IN THE PASSENGER-SEAT..

& MY "WIFE"..

& "IN-LAWS" IN THE CAR RIGHT-"BEHIND"-ME..

SO THEY "SAW"

THE "WHOLE"-THING..

SO..

I WAS "EMBARRASSED"..

FOR BEING "DISTRACTED"

& "IMPATIENT"..

"BUT"..

IT "ALL" WORKED-OUT..

NO ONE WAS HURT..

& STATE FARM GAVE ME A "VERY"-NICE SETTLEMENT..

WELL..

LAST WEEK..

"I" RECEIVED A LETTER FROM THE "ARIZONA DEPT. OF TRANSPORTATION"..

INFORMING-ME..

THAT "I" HAD BEEN ISSUED A "SPEEDING TICKET"..

FOR GOING 57..
IN A 45..

WHILE "ALSO" IN TUCSON..

THEY HAVE THESE "MOBILE" SPEED TRAPS IN ARIZONA..

A TRAILER..

THEY SET-UP..

"ALONG" CITY STREETS..

(THEY "USED" TO PUT THEM UP ALONG THE-10..
BUT I "HAVEN'T" SEEN "THOSE" IN A FEW YEARS)..

&..

"LIKE" RED-LIGHT CAMERAS..

IF YOU'RE SPEEDING..

THEY TAKE YOUR PHOTO..

WELL "MY" PHOTO CAME IN THE MAIL "LAST"-WEEK..

GOING 57
IN A 45..

"BUT"..

WHAT'S "WIERD"..

THERE'S "NO"-FINE ASSESSED..

SO "AGAIN"..

I "MAY" HAVE DODGED A BULLET..

BUT "AGAIN"..

IT'S AS "IF"..

SOMEONE..

IS TELLING ME TO "SLOW"-DOWN..

"BE" MORE "PATIENT" BEHIND THE WHEEL..

IT'S LIKE A "WARNING"..

IS THERE A "LESSON" TO BE LEARNED-HERE?..

"HELLO?"..
