Well, my luck finally ran out
 
I was on my way to meet a friend for coffee tonight around 11 pm when my night went from sucky to worse. There was a guy on my *** for 2 miles and wouldn't pass me. I was already doing 60 in a 50. For whatever reason at a red light with a merge lane from 3 into 2 lanes, he decides to get into the merge lane to get infront of me. Well instead of letting him go I decided to get on it a little and stay infront of him. For those of you who know my car.....it's got true duals and dumps so it's freaking LOUD. Apparently there was a cop sitting in a parking lot close to the light and caught up to me a few miles up the road. He pulled me over oddly enough at the same wawa I was meeting my friend at. He came up to the window PISSED. I was polite as always and I know I messed up. He was prior military so he said that instead of giving me a reckless driving he was going to drop it down to a careless. He gave me the "people are going to pull up to lights around here and challenge you speech." I agreed and said I know it was really stupid of me.

My first moving violation in 5 years. I guess I was about due.

Got ur text at 2...I was up...don't know why I didnt hear it. That sucks. Careless = no points Reckless = lots. You dont have a NJ D/L so would it have even effected you? I know some states carry the points over- others don't.

Anything that I get here in NJ doesn't carry over to IL
