She's obviously been through this over and over and over before, does she get up in the morning and think things are going to somehow be different today? As far as the ticket for 5 over, be honest with yourself man, there's probably more to it like, "well I clocked you at 18 over, but I'm feeling really nice today so I'm only going to write you for 5 over" oooorrr, you almost hit three cars back there weaving through traffic, I have to write you a ticket for something, I'll just do it for 5 over if you promise to quit driving like an ass" The only times I have ever evER EVER heard of a ticket for 5 over it was actually a break from the ticket that could have been written, I have a feeling there's more to it
Yeah but its Orlando. Them guys pull you over for 5 over. Your doing 2 over they get behind you and start reading your tag. I lived out there 8 yrs and got speeding tickets and other traffic violations. Here seems to be more subtle. Out there its crazy, you think rice is in Tampa... should see the rice fest there... there's one in every neighborhood or 2 maybe 3. I guess this is why Orlando people post about getting tickets all the time. Over there there's no "Oh I'll give a ticket for something else" its here's a ticket for speeding/running a redlight/ oh and here sign this one for not having your address changed on your license". They actually look for everything else even though they pulled you over for 1 thing.
