I blame it totally on the girlfriends.
Most recent was on the 405 in LA. I was in the "fast lane" going 70....speed limit 65. All the cars in front of me, behind me and next to me were also going 70. Here comes the motorcycle cop from behind, weaving in and out around the other cars and lights me up. I ask the cop, a real Barney Fife with the attitude, why he pulled me over out of all those other cars? He smiled and said it was my lucky day! Wrote me up for 5 over!
Jealousy....Envy....Power trip....Ego....
