So I got caught. A few days ago I was pulled over by the police on my way to the airport to pickup my wife!
He got me. 👮 🚔 I was going 58 mph in a 40 mph zone, or so he says. I wasn't really paying too much attention to my speed, so I didn't have much to argue with. Although, I did say, "I thought the speed limit here was 50?" He then told me, that even if the speed limit in this area was 50 mph, which it wasn't, then I would have still been speeding. Haha. I guess he's right.
He did give me a break and let me off pretty easy. He only wrote me a ticket saying that I was only going 5 mph over the speed limit. Which was 45 in a 40 mile per hour zone. So I guess I got lucky in that aspect. I'm sure that the ticket would have been a lot more than $125.00 if he had charged me with my actual speed.
I finally got the ticket out of my glove box today. I didn't really want to deal with it. I sat there in the front seat for a minute and my mind started wondering. I thought, "Wouldn't it be cool if I paid this ticket with Crypto!?" I mean, it really sucks to have to pay a ticket. That's a $125.00 that I could spend on something fun or take my wife to dinner with. Maybe I could have bought the kids a new toy. I would honestly rather spend that money anywhere instead of paying it to the city.
Hrmm, it would really suck less and be kind of fun if I made it a goal to pay this ticket in Steem Backed Dollars. Just to stick it to the man!
So I decided to make a post and have a bit of fun. What do you think? Should I stick it to the man?
Leave a vote, leave some comments, support the cause. Then in a few days I will make a follow up post. Showing how I converted SBD to USD and payed the court!
Thanks Friends!
