birthlady Annoying? How annoying would it be for you to be hit head on by a truck or another car (anything, really) because the other driver thinks you are a motorcycle due to one headlight? You drive in the dark night with one headlight, you're more than annoying --...

birthlady I disagree with the previous post that if you know a cop you can get away with murder...I also disagree that cops are horrible people...they're not...they're just people.
