I shamefully must admit I received my first speeding ticket this week. Yes, it was my first ever. I was driving 54kmh (33mph) in a 40kmh (24mph) area. I knew the speed limit in residential areas was 40, but I didn't think I was in a residential area, never mind the posted speed limit, I mean really, who has time to read the signs). Well, the street I was on has a Dorm building, and I guess since some people reside there, it is deemed 'residential'. I assumed the speed limit in housing was lower because of children out playing, etc. Anyone living in the dorms should have enough sense to stay out of the street right?
Well the next day I decided to tell Keegan that Mommy had gotten a ticket the day before. He looks at me in complete astonishment. "Mom, did you tell Daddy yet?" "Yes, Hun, I told him yesterday" "Did you lose your license? Did you go to jail?" "No Hun, I just got a ticket and points on my license." "Well, what would you have done if they had taken your license." "I dont know" "I guess you would have put them in the jogging stroller and pushed them all around the place to run your errands, huh" "Yes son, you are right, I will be more careful next time" "Good!"

So sorry to hear that you got a speeding ticket! I think I know exactly where you are talking about. The speed limits are so slow around here it really is hard not to speed :)
