    Doing double the speed limit with your kids in the car is not a danger?
    Can’t wait to hear how you justify this.

      Okay, you know, that’s fair. I personally detest speeding because it is a danger. However, I feel that we are speaking of two different meanings of the word here, and my meaning of the word danger is much different in regards to whether or not someone should be bonded out.

      It could be an accident. I got pulled over because I was just cruising around the loop in my town on a Friday with my cruise control set at the speed limit.

      At the time, my college didn’t have school on Fridays, so as I passed the school I asked myself, “why are there so many cars when there’s no school?” Then I saw the lights.

      I still maintain that the school zone lights came on after I entered the zone since the school busses weren’t even lined up yet, but I was driving at a safe speed for the road itself.

      The cop thought so too, since I only got a ticket for 55 in a 35 instead of in a school zone.
