Driving is a Privelege not a Right....so I learned

yesterday. I was pulled over by a police officer after I didn't stop on a red turning right. Okay so this was the scenario. I was coming up to the intersection which is a highway/back road. I had a clear view of the intersection, so I could tell if traffic was coming on the left and whether I would have to stop or not. Well a school bus was turning right from the left onto the street I was on. A black car was behind it so I figured that I could make my right turn without slowing down because the black car would have to slow down for the turning bus. Well it did and then all of sudden it started to pick up spead and then......the lights came on! Not head lights but flashing lights. I hoped it was for the bus ahead of me but I quickly realized it was for me.
So I pulled over, the nice looking police officer came over and asked for my license. Luckily he left me with a warning! A well earned warning! I thanked him incessantly and then drove away relieved. At first I congratulated myself on putting on a remorseful face and voice but then I scolded myself for being so vain and silly. I reminded mysefl that it was by the grace of God that he didn't take the time to write out a ticket and take three points off. I should have known better! My mom has been warning me about my rolling stops and I finally got my slap on the wrist. Thank goodness I don't live in the states where the cops are brutal and easily go on power trips.
