Lol - it's an Acura lease and Acura is doing the body work. I wouldn't care if they did screw it up, except that my wife would rather not drive around a car with body damage (especially a brand new model less than 6 months old).

I have been and can vouch for The Churchkey :yum: :yum:

( Click to show/hide )
There was no one around me, so I knew as soon as he turned on his headlights that he was pulling me over. I was in the middle lane, so I waited until I passed him to move over to the right lane, using my blinker. I then proceeded to brake and pull over into the shoulder with my right blinker on the entire time. I stopped with the passenger side wheels just off the highway to give him plenty of room to approach my driver door - I had pretty much come to a complete stop on the shoulder before he even got up to speed. As soon as I was stopped, I turned off my right blinker and turned on my emergency hazard lights. I had my window rolled down and both hands on the steering wheel when he got out of his car to approach mine.

I'm pretty sure this sequence eased his mind a little - I expect he was looking for drunk drivers more than speeders (I was absolutely sober). Anyway, he asked for license and insurance and pretty much immediately said he was giving me a warning. He asks where we were coming from and I said a party in SA. He goes back to his car and then comes back with the form for me to sign. As I'm signing he asks what party we were at, and I respond a private party with some friends. We conclude the process and he says drive safe. I immediately turned to my wife and said there's no way he missed my right wrist, which still had two bands on it from the party - one for 21+ and one for VIP :icon17: I can't help but think he might have given me more hassle about if I hadn't reacted to getting pulled over in the textbook manner that I did :tup:

very legit sir! :tiphat:
