Everybody’s been there. You’re stuck behind someone doing 40 in a 55, you’ve got somewhere to be, and the road ahead looks clear enough. So you go for it. Most of the time, nothing happens. But sometimes a police cruiser is sitting right there — and suddenly you’ve got a ticket in your hand and  … Read more

It’s one of those moments that happens so automatically you barely register it. You back out of your driveway, glance both ways, and pull onto the street. You’ve done it a thousand times.
