I was a lead footed driver before.
Lost my license several times for moving violations.
NPD - Excuse me sir, did you know you ran a stop sign?
Me - I don't believe I ran the sign officer, I thought I came to a stop.
NPD - No sir, all of your wheels did not come to a complete stop.
Me - ?!Really?! Which one didn't stop?

Since I began HyperMiling, (4? 5? years back) I have had only one incident.
My fault.
I got in a hurry,
driving someone else car,
44 in a 35
$178 later I'm headed back to being citation-less for five years.
