If you are ever driving in the DFW - Euless area... PSA...
Apparently, the Euless police don't consider a stop a "complete stop" unless a person waits three fucking seconds.

I swear to God, I am fighting this fucking ticket...even if I have to miss work.

what a perfectly rotten ending to a completely shitty day.

:grr:

4. Oh, you better believe I'm fighting it.
The city of Euless can just find another fucking way of subsidizing their city, instead of harassing employees who have the misfortune of working at the airport 24-7.

:grr:

8. I stopped quickly and then started again.
It's actually a very dangerous turn, and it's not an option to do a roll stop, there, really. I drive this drive every single day I work and know how to stop and exactly where the speed traps are (where the speed limits are artificially lowered to entrap drivers). I think the city of Euless needs more revenue because too many people are losing their homes and can't pay their taxes.

Yes, I am just as angry today - as yesterday - and I am fighting the ticket.

:grr:
