Over 3 Million Tickets Dismissed
With the holidays right around the corner, hopefully you have plenty of parties and family gatherings to attend. Taking a ride share is your best bet, as you know. But what if you leave an office party and you happen to have your car with you? Or perhaps you thought it would be a great…
I was curious if “intextication” was just a made-up word or if it’s a real thing. So I looked it up on the ever so reliable Wikipedia site (haha) in their “wiktionary” and there it was! It means “distraction by text messaging while driving.” While the definition from Techopedia says that it is “a term…
January marked the first death in Texas due to a wrong-way driver. Every driver knows that road reflectors on the highway at night will reflect a silvery white.

I remember the holiday parties at our house when I was a kid. Everyone was “tying one on” as my Dad would say. The Urban Dictionary indicates that “to tie one on” means “to get drunk or start drinking before the hang over from last night has worn off. Thus having something to “tie onto”. …
I haven’t gotten a ticket in many years (knock on wood). And, you certainly don’t want to “brag” about it, or the Karma Monkey will trip you up. When that happens, you get three tickets in a row. Like celebrity deaths. I know for me, it’s just a matter of time before I get a…
