A little story about traffic tickets...
Did you know that some
street intersections have
cameras mounted by the
stop lights? Some of the busier ones in my town do. Some of the cameras even have little
radar guns by them. Usually, they're just there to monitor traffic, but every once in a while, when someone speeds through a red light, the camara will take a picture of the car and licence plate. Then, about a week later, you'll get a nice little envelope with the picture of your car speeding the
red light and a ticket to go with it.
So this person got one of these tickets, wrote out a check, took a picture of the check with his
polaroid camara, and send the snapshot of the check in with his ticket.
A few weeks later, he got a picture back from the court that displayed a pair of
handcuffs.
The man paid the ticket.
