Its Friday afternoon and I figured we could all use a smile.
I just heard this on the news...
a guy wanted to get to work quicker so he went into the HOV lane (where you need to have a passenger). He sculpted a dummy out of plastic pipes and foam, put a mask on the dummy and a baseball hat,
well, this guy got pulled over - why? no, not for the dummy but because the dummy didnt have its seatbelt on!
here is the link to the news story! :-)

Funny story. We have people in Florida who do that all the time here. One of our cops would have written him a ticket for the dummy, and a ticket for the dummy not being in a seatbelt! LOL

I had a friend who travelled from Michigan to Florida and back again with a life sized mickey mouse doll in the passenger seat! Only people who looked closely when they drove by got a bit of a laugh. Others assumed she had a passenger. She didn't do it however to drive in a special lane. She did it so she would feel safer driving such a long distance as a single woman.

I seen that on the news as well. I thought that was so funny! Then got fined for having the dummy just so he could be in the car pool lane! Oh yeah and the dummy was confiscated. What some people come up with...

hahaha! He would have got away with it too if he had just buckled his dummy.
Great idea though. I wonder how many people actually do that.
I think we will see more people using the HOV lane in this way. LOL!
