I didn't know my brother had gotten a PARKING ticket while he borrowed my car. Got pulled over at a DWI check point and they ran my plate and Holy Fuck, You would of thought I was a murderer from another state. My license was suspended and I didn't know since I was on a 4 month vacation sort of, Couldn't bail myself out of a 15.000 bond even though I had the funds available if I could of used my credit card or debt card. Truth is I sat in that fucking jail for almost a month until I let a complete stranger who was a inmate with me sign my wallet out and use my debit card. Left Orlando and pointed my middle finger at florida after paying another 2100.00 for storage fees. Got my license straightened out paid a small fine and now the mention of Orlando gives me a feeling hard to describe whenever someone mentions it.
