“Ma’am, do you know why you have been pulled over?” the officer asked politely.
“No, I do not,” I replied honestly.
“It’s because you rolled through that stop sign back there,” he informed me.
“Oh! That wasn’t a rolling stop – I never roll through a stop sign,” I replied cheerfully.
“I stopped precisely, then resumed going again by catching my vehicle’s continuing momentum!” and I outlined my precise perspective with added hand gesturing.
He began laughing at my truthful cajolery, and in the end, kindly let me go with a warning.
In return, I promised that I would stop even longer because “those university students like to jump out into the street without any warning!”
