(12,132 posts)and this was 31+ years ago when I was 21~22 and I never have since then and don't even do marijuanas any longer - it was 2am and I was sitting at a red light (High AF) and I reached down to fiddle with my radio and out of the corner of my eye I saw green so I started through the intersection - again, late at night, me and one other car on the road and it was going the opposite direction from me - and as I'm going though I look up and realize OH SHIT, I don't have the green, that was just a green left-hand turn arrow but I'm half-way through now and nobody is coming and the other car isn't moving because it was originally going straight the other way.
I say "originally" because as I pass through I look over and see it's a cop. Well fuck. So NOW he flips on his lights and hangs a U-Turn and I just pulled over.
I explained I was just on my way home from fiance's house (true) and we had gone out to dinner at Red Lobster (true) and I had tried shark for the first time (true) and I was feeling sick from that as it didn't agree with me (Also true) and that I was just trying to get home before I threw up (not really all that true. I felt weird but not throw-uppy weird). I don't know if he smelled or saw the roach in my ash-tray but he just gave me a ticket for running the light and sent me on my way. Coulda been worse for sure in many ways.
If we legalize recreational I will smoke again but until then I'm a beer man. And no driving under any influence.
