Red Light Camera Hell
Dear Red Light Camera,
Oh, you are SO tough.
Ok, you got me.
But let me fill you in on something.
There wasn't just a little ice, the entire street was a sheet of ice.
So, when you send me the pictures of me "running" the light, I'm going to fight it.
I hope that the pictures relate to you that I didn't run the light. I skidded through the light.
My car wasn't even going straight.
I was in forward motion, but kind of going sideways.
I think the camera will show my terrified face, and me white-knuckling the steering wheel.
My normally 20 minute drive home from schule was a one hour nightmare. I went no more than 10 mph at any given time. I even yelled at a police man. He was at some mini-mart with a dozen other cops, and he's standing kind of in the street saying "Go! go!" I looked at him and said "No! No."
Last night was one of the top 5 scariest driving experiences I've ever had.
So, red light camera, send the stupid ticket. In April, when there's no snow or ice.
I guarantee you, I won't be paying it.
